ClA/rniQU TURNIP All authorities are agreed that it 
1 ^ 11 is of the greatest importance that 
OR RUTA BAGA. the amount of dry matter, i.e 
food solids and sugar, in Mangels, 
Swedes, and Turnips, should be increased to the largest extent, 
if the maximum feeding quality is desired, and for several years 
past the “Carter” Method of Root Selection has been employed 
for increasing the amount of dry matter of our roots. 
1636 Carters Holborn Elephant Swede.—A heavy cropping purple- 
top, tankard-shaped Swede of the highest feeding value. It is 
now several years since we introduced this fine Purple-top Swede, 
and it has, during that time, acquired a large popularity amongst 
agriculturists. The root grows well out of the ground, is always 
sound and solid, and the variety adapts itself to almost any soil. 
1637 Carters Prize-winne. Purple-top Swede.—A purple-topped 
variety, growing to a large size, with a single tap-root and a 
very small and fine top. Unlike other varieties which grow 
with a hard and coarse neck, Carters Prize-winner Purple-top 
has a fleshy top, the leaf-stems breaking almost immediately 
above the crown of the bulb, which continues to grow and increase 
in weight long after the “necky” Swedes have mildewed and 
ceased to improve. 
1639 Carters Holborn Kangaroo Swede.—A green-top Swede 
well know r n on account of its disease-resisting and hardy nature. 
It is very suitable for growing on poor shallow soils, or for feeding 
off on the ground. Short harvest and seed very scarce. 
1645 Best of All, Selected.—A very popular Heavy Cropping Purple- 
top Globe Swede, small necked and quite hardy.

1638 Carters Holborn Invlcta Swede. —Purplish-bronze variety. 
Carters Holborn Invicta Swede has become the most popular 
Swede in cultivation. There is hardly a root competition or 
agricultural show at which fine specimens will not be found 
taking a high place in the awards. Not only in England but 
in all parts of the world where Swedes are grown, notably in 
Canada and New Zealand, it has become the variety in greatest 
demand. This extensive popularity and public favour are sure 
proofs of its outstanding merits, and it is steadily taking the 
place of older and inferior sorts.

structure, sweet, mild, and well flavoured. It is a”good keeper.

of the white varieties is unsurpassed for table or stock.
