“BEST BY EVERY TEST” 
BUIST’S PERFECT MODEL 
This new variety is an im- 
proved strain of our “Shull’s 
Model Beet,” introduced by us 
in 1886, and by careful com' 
parison, has proven to be the best 
for Market Gardeners; its uni' 
formity in shape, medium size 
and deep red color makes it a 
very desirable market beet. The 
tops are small and its growth up' 
right; for bunching and shipping 
it has no equal. For the home' 
garden it is especially desirable 
on account of its exquisite qual- 
ity, being very sweet and finely 
grained; is a good keeper and 
may be used all Winter; the deep, 
rich color makes it a very desir' 
able sort for canners. Pkt., 10c;
