SALZER’S HOLLOW CROWN

thrive where carrots will not grow. A 
freeze is required to sweeten them. For 
the best results, deep soil is needed. 
Salzer’s Hollow Crown is enormously 
productive, roots are 10 to 12 inches 
long and about 3 inches thick at the 
shoulder. It is rich in saccharine, has 
smooth white skin, is uniform in shape, is sweet, tender, sugary. Not 
only of fine table quality, but very desirable for stock feeding. Also rel¬ 
ished by horses. Matures in 13 0 days. 832—Pkg., 10c; oz., 15c; Y\

SALZER’S DELMONICO 
This nationally famous strain, introduced by us, does not require such deep soil 
for its cultivation. It is a stump rooted variety and hence easily harvested. Roots 
reach a length of about 8 inches, with a thick broad shoulder, skin is smooth and 
white, and the flesh is fine-grained, sweet, sugary, tender and most excellent for 
table use. Very early, maturing in about 115 days. It is a most prolific yielder, 
it contains more saccharine, is sweeter and more nutritious than other sorts, and 
as it is so easily harvested, large acreages are grown for stock feeding. Thrives 
on almost any soil. This splendid variety surpasses every other in yield and 
quality. 833—Pkg., 10c; oz., 18c; 14 lb., 50c; y 2 lb., 8Sc; lb., $1.45; 2 lbs., $2.80,
