BEETS 
CABBAGE 
CULTURE—For table beets sow in drills 18 inches apart, and 
thin to stand 3 to 4 inches apart in the rows. Use one ounce to 100 
feet of drill and cover lightly. 
CROSBY’S EGYPTIAN—The earliest beet on the market. A 
selection from that standard market beet. Early Egyptian, which 
retains the earliness of the parent stock and has added thickness, 
giving it a most desirable shape. It is the deepest red, almost black 
in color, and is of finer quality than the Egyptian, being sweeter 
and even more tender and smoother. The most desirable sort for 
small beets for early market, as it is in presentable market shape 
quicker than any other sort. It is a very rapid grower and can be 
sown outside as late as July. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; Vi lb. 25c. Postpaid.
