x HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR x 
TABLE TURNIPS 
Early White Milan Turnip. An extra early variety. The bulb 
forms very rapidly, making but few and small leaves. It is 
eminently adapted for early spring and summer planting, and 
if sown at monthly intervals will furnish a continuous supply of 
the most tender and delicately flavored Turnips; the root is of 
medium size, very handsome, smooth and of a clear ivory-white 
both inside and out. The flesh is fine-grained, tender and of 
mild, sweet flavor, it never becomes pithy or stringy. It will 
undoubtedly find a welcome in all gardens, as, in addition to the 
heavy crop assured by its adaptability for close planting, it 
is fit for use at least a week earlier than any other white variety 
in cultivation. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. 34 lb., $2.00 lb. 
Extra Early Purple Top Milan. The earliest Turnip in culti¬ 
vation; the color is bright reddish purple above ground and 
clear white underneath; the leaves are few and small, which 
allows it to be planted very close. The flesh is white, free from 
stringiness and of mild flavor; unsurpassed for earlv use. Price, 
10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 50c. 34 lb., $1.75 lb. 
Early Snowball Turnip. The finest white-fleshed, ball-shaped, 
early table Turnip; bulbs, small, smooth and round, with white 
skin and sparkling white flesh, crisp, tender and sweet. It is a 
fitting companion to the yellow-fleshed Golden Ball offered be¬ 
low, and equally early, maturing in six weeks from sowing. ( See 
cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. oz., 30c. 34 lb., 90c. lb. 
Golden Ball or “Orange Jelly.” This distinct variety is the 
finest yellow-fleshed early table Turnip that we know, forming 
a handsome, small, round bulb with smooth, yellow skin and 
small tap-root. The flesh is a deep yellow, and the table 
qualities are unsurpassed; texture fine-grained and tender; flavor 
sweet and rich. It is of quick growth and adapted for spring, 
summer or early autumn planting. Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. oz., 30c.

face color white, with a purple top; a true table Turnip and 
one of the best; extensively grown and pitted for fall and winter, 
being a good keeper; it produces enormous crops. (See cut.)

:: :: Golden Heart Ruta Baga :: :: 
Invaluable for garden culture. It is entirely distinct from 
all other varieties. The bulb grows as clean and smooth as a Tur¬ 
nip. The flesh is remarkably fine in grain and of delicious flavor; 
but the most distinct improvement of all lies in its wonderful 
earliness, as it matures in 56 days from time of sowing. (See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 35c. 34 lb., $1.00 lb. 
“The Golden Heart Ruta Bagas are the finest I hove ever had. 1 gave some 
to a neighbor who liked them so well, that he will grow Golden Heart exclusively 
next spring.” W. I. BROOKS , R.F.D. 1, Box 0, Glastonbury, Conn. 
Calyer's Purple Top Ruta Baga 
This variety is as large and productive as the Long Island Im¬ 
proved but differs in form, being top-shaped and therefore more 
easily dug; the bulbs are smooth and very attractive; tops purple, 
lower part rich cream color; yellow flesh, firm, sweet and of 
excellent quality. Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. oz., 25c. 34 lbi, 75c. lb.
