MANGEL BEETS 
The Mangel Wurzel, also called Cattle or Field Beet, may be grown in 
almost any soil, but deep loams are recommended for heavy yields of the 
long varieties. Plant early in the spring in drills 2 to 2 feet apart, and about 
one inch apart in the row, pressing the soil down firmly above the seed. When 
firmly set thin to three inches and continue until the roots are about ten inches 
apart. They are absolutely unequaled as a food for stock during the winter 
months; they keep the stock in condition and encourage the steady flow 
of milk. 
Giant Long Red — Produces the largest yield of any kind of Mangel. The 
quality of the roots for feeding is very high, and they are excellent winter 
keepers. We recommend this variety to the dairy farmer. 
Long Red Mangel Beet

some and very productive strain, skin below 
ground rose-colored, top grey or bronze, excellent

diameter. Above ground the root is a light grey, 
below a rich orange. The flesh is yellow, zoned 
with white.
