Improved Long Island No. 3; Neckless (New) No. 4. 
RUTABAGAS or SWEDISH TURNIPS 
Improved Long Island. A fine strain of purple-top yellow ruta¬ 
baga having smooth, handsome roots, bright yellow with 
purple top and no “neck.” The roots are of medium size, 
perfectly round or globe shaped, very smooth and of fine 
quality for table use. One of the best for this purpose. 
Improved American Purple Top. A good market gardeners’ 
strain, roots are globe shaped, color a bright yellow with a 
purple top, tender and sweet. 
Neckless (New). A worthy improvement on the above, the 
leaves grow out directly from the bulb, are very short and 
without the “necky” growth, is also very early. 
GARDEN TURNIPS 
Extra Early White Milan. The earliest white turnip, flat in 
shape and clear white throughout. Very tender; it is fit 
for use at least a week earlier than other turnips. 
Snowball, Early. Quick-growing, round, pure white and early, 
with medium-sized, smooth, and sweetly flavored roots, 
and short, scant top. Flesh pure white, fine-grained, and 
tender . 
Purple Top White Globe. Our re-selected strain is well suited 
for market gardeners, being true globe shaped, about half 
purple topped with small necks. 
White Egg. An oval or globe-shaped white turnip, with pure 
white skin and of fine table qualities. It is popular in mar¬ 
ket and excellent for home use. 
Shogoin or Japanese. A new, extremely useful sort. It is quick 
growing and supplies large edible strap leaves as well as 
smooth globular roots of superior quality. Already popular 
as a dual purpose variety.
