SALZER’S 
RED BEAUTY 
Very early, uniform in size, 
perfect turnip shape, fine 
grained, tender, the richest and 
darkest red of any beet. Sal¬ 
zer’s Red Beauty is a , mighty 
good beet to plant and those 
who have once planted it, see 
to it that they have some of 
this fine strain in their garden 
every year. Its uniformity and 
its rich, attractive, dark red 
color sell the beets on sight at 
market, and for the home gar¬ 
den it not only produces tender, 
delicious, extremely early beets 
for table use, but the color is 
retained when cooked, making 
them most attractive for both 
canning and pickling. 
Remarkable for its uniform, 
perfect shape; roots are always 
smooth, with but a small tap¬ 
root, are of medium size, flesh is 
finely grained, very sweet, al¬ 
ways free from woody fibres, 
and the skin and flesh are the 
darkest red of any beet. The 
leaves are dark green and shaded 
with red, are very small and of 
upright growth, allowing close 
planting. A heavy cropper, ma¬ 
turing in about 40 days. I 66—

DETROIT 
DARK RED 
Cannot be surpassed for 
main crop purposes. One <4t 
the largest beets grown and a 
heavy cropper, producing large, 
globe shaped roots, delicious, 
tender, and fine grained, small 
tap-root, and free from any 
trace of woodiness or stringy 
tendency. Succeeds equally 
well at all seasons and is one 
of the best to sow in spring to 
succeed the extra early and 
medium crop sorts. 
The skin is an attractive 
blood-red and the flesh is dark 
red, practically zoneless.. It is a 
popular variety for canning re¬ 
taining its fine color exceptionally 
well. Leaves are dark green, 
shaded with red, tops are small 
and grow upright. The flesh is 
solid, always tender and of a de¬ 
cidedly sweet flavor. Matures in 
about 50 days. Most valuable for 
succession sowings. A great fa¬ 
vorite, not only with market 
gardeners who grow for profit, 
but likewise with the home gar¬ 
dener who wants large, good 
beets for his own table use. A 
splendid beet to store for win¬ 
ter. Re-selected seed. 159—
