sort, and justly so; but the Palmetto is not only much 
earlier, but is also a better yielder, and is more even

weigh about 2 pounds. ~ The Palmetto has now been 
planted in all parts of the country, and the reports we 
have indicate that it is equally well adapted for all sec¬ 
tions North and South. One of the strongest features 
which recommend the Palmetto over all other varieties 
is, that it is less susceptible to the Asparagus disease than 
any other variety, and has continued to yield profitable 
crops in sections where plantations of other varieties 
have been entirely devastated. Its quality is unequaled.

ELECTRIC. — In the Electric we have more good qualities 
than were ever before combined in one Beet. It is almost 
round, leaves small and compact, and set very close to the 
centre; tap-root small, starting from the bulb without taper; 
indeed, it combines the maximum of edible bulb with the mini¬ 
mum of root and foliage. The color is very dark crimson, 
changing alternately into rings of a lighter hue. The con¬ 
stancy of color largely enhances its value. It is extremely 
early, coming in with Extra Early Egyptian. But it is when 
prepared for the table that its fine qualities become most appa¬ 
rent, the fine rich color making it conspicuous. The flesh, of 
delicate texture, rich and sugary. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt.,
