MANGEL BEETS 
The Mangel Wurzel, also called Cattle or Field Beet, may be grown in 
almost any soil, but deep loams are recommended for heavy yields of 
the long varieties. Plant early in the spring in drills 2 to 21/2 feet apart, 
and about one inch apart in the row, pressing the soil down firmly 
above the seed. When firmly set thin to three inches and continue until 
the roots are about ten inches apart. They are absolutely unequaled as 
a food for stock during the winter months; they keep the stock in condi¬ 
tion and encourage the steady flow of milk. 
Giant Long Red —Produces the largest yield of any kind of Mangel. The 
quality of the roots for feeding is very high, and they are excellent Long Red Mangel Beet 
winter keepers. We recommend this variety to the dairy farmer. 110 
days. 
Improved White Sugar —A white fleshed, hand¬ 
some and very productive strain, skin below 
ground rose-colored, top grey or bronze, excel¬ 
lent for stock feeding. 90 days.

large diameter. Above ground the root is a
