6 Best Standard Varieties of BEETS 
^ ^ r r r ^ ^ ^ ^ a rn - - - - _ _ _ 
Crosby's Egyptian 
Deep red, almost black in color; 
an improvement over the old Egyp¬ 
tian, being sweeter, more tender, 
smoother, and also more round in 
form and larger, although equally 
as early. The most desirable sort 
for small Beets for early market. 
It is a very rapid grower and can 
be sown outside as late as July. Our 
strain is extremely early, and very 
uniform in shape and color. Pkt.
