108 HOPI I N D I AN POLE 
BEAN. (See front cover pic¬ 
ture.) Here is one that can 
take it. Found among the In¬ 
dians of the southwest. They 
have been growing it for cen¬ 
turies on poor, rocky soil, un¬ 
der the driest conditions 
imaginable. This environ¬ 
ment has developed a rugged 
resistance which no other 
variety has. It does unusu¬ 
ally well in the corn belt and 
has exceptionally fine quality 
and flavor. It yielded this 
summer when my other beans 
failed. Price: Triple Size Pkt.

usual. Plant with your early

I have spent a lot of time 
to get you only the finest 
kinds of beets. On some of 
the varieties, I have even 
sent to Europe after the seed. 
I like a beet of uniformr 
shape and color, with small 
top, small tap root, free from 
the straggly side roots. One 
ounce of seed will plant 100 
ft. of row. Plant as soon as 
you can get in the ground in 
the spring, and make several 
sowings throughout the sea¬ 
son. 
603—BOSTON CROSBY. 
Here is the small 
early, dark red, globe- 
shaped beet that you have beep waiting 
for. It is a distinctively new variety 
much better than anything that we have 
had to date. The tops are small, flesh is 
very tender and it is unusually attrac¬ 
tive. Price: Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; *4 lb. 30c; 1 lb. 75c.

STOCK BEETS 
It isn’t much trouble at all to raise from 15 to 20 
tons of beets to the acre, and that makes real feed. 
Sow the seed in April and May in rows 2 y 2 to 3 feet 
apart, at the rate of 10 or 12 lbs. to the acre. Harvest 
before severe frost and store in pits or cellar. Live 
stock and poultry sure go for stock beets. 
Price on all varieties: oz. 5c; V4 lb. 15c; 1 lb. 45c; 
5 lbs. $1.75. 
620 GIANT SLUD-STRUP. High yielding, long red¬ 
dish-yellow variety. Grows well above the ground 
and is easily pulled. Flesh white with faint yellow 
tinge. 
616 GIANT FEEDING SUGAR. One of the heaviest 
producers. It’s extra sugar content makes it more 
desirable for a dairy feed. Fine keeper, oval shaped 
with smooth clear skin. 
619 MAMMOTH LONG RED MANGEL. The largest 
and most productive of all. Called by some “Gate 
Post” because of it’s size. Often reaches 24 to 30 
inches in length with individual weight from 25 to 
35 lbs. Easily harvested as the root grows half to 
two thirds out of the ground.

to poultry know their value as a winter feed to take 
the place of green stuff to keep the hens on nroduc- 
tion. This mixture contains many kinds, thus giv¬ 
ing you a variety of beets which your poultry will 
appreciate very much.
