MILLS’ EXTRA EARLY 
BLOOD TURNIP 
This is an extra selected strain and has proven 
a great success wherever grown. We shall sup¬ 
ply thousands of our customers this year with 
this excellent strain. It is very early, early 
as any other variety grown and the color is a 
rich dark red and the illustration from a photo¬ 
graph shows the shape and appearance. It has 
a very small top, is fine grained and always 
grows very smooth and the beets are always of 
a very even size. This is one of the best, va¬ 
rieties for early planting or for forcing for 
spring and summer crops or for use in the win¬ 
ter. It is very tender and crisp and highly 
prized in market wherever offered. It is a 
great keeper and will make an excellent crop 
in a few weeks after sowing the seed. We want 
every customer who has any room to raise beets 
to sow a packet of this extra selected early 
variety and we are sure it will be grown every 
year. More than 46,000 gardens contained this 
splendid beet in 1907, and it is praised by all 
who tested it. Our crop of seed is sufficient we 
believe to supply all our customers. Pkt. 6c.;

EGYPTIAN 
This is the old well known 
Blood Turnip Beet and claimed 
to be the earliest of all. The 
illustration gives the shape of 
this popular root. The flesh is 
a dark red color and in many 
sections our customers prefer 
this to any other variety. 
Those who want to grow Eg¬ 
yptian BloodTurnip Beets can 
make no mistake in using our 
strain of seed, which hrs been 
carefully selected. Pkt. 5e.;

ECLIPSE 
We believe this is one of the best 
known beets and has given great sat¬ 
isfaction to all who have grown it. 
The Eclipse is quite early and is sup¬ 
erior to many of the other table 
beets. We have taken particular 
pains in selecting this strain for many 
years and can furnish seed that will 
produce beets with a very small top. 
smooth, fine grain, tender and of a 
handsome bright red color. If you 
want to raise Eclipse Beets try our 
strain this year. Pkt. 5c.; oz. lOc.;
