MANGELS and SUGAR BEETS 
284 Giant Feeding Sugar Beet, or Half Sugar Mangel 
This magnificent Sugar Beet, while giving nearly as large a 
yield of easily grown and harvested roots as a crop of Mangels, 
supplies a food of very much higher nutritive value, the roots for 
feeding purposes being really more valuable, pound for pound, 
than those of the very best strains of Sugar Beet, and the yield 
under equally favorable conditions being more than double. The 
roots grow partly out of the ground, and because of this and their 
shape, the crop can be harvested and stored at less expense than 
any other root crop. We are certain that every one who plants 
this variety and grows it with care will be much pleased with the 
crop. Every farmer should try it. Ounce 8 cts.; y 4 lb., 21 cts.; 
i/ 2 lb., 33 cts.; lb., 60 cts.; 2 lbs., $1.10; 5 lbs., $2.50, postpaid.
