Mangels or Stock Beets “T 
A necessity for stock and poultry. Mangels, with their enormous yields,, 
furnish body building material and maintain general good health.

manured, in drills 18 inches apart and about two inches deep. Four to 
six pounds are required to the acre. About 450 seeds in a packet.

Sugar Beet 
Swiss Chard, 
Lueullus 
KLEIN WANZLEBEN. A hardy and easily grown white, wedge- 
shaped sugar beet. This variety combines heavy yield with an 
extremely high sugar content. The sugar beet is not only a source 
of sugar but an excellent stock food and a heavy milk producer.

prepaid, 5 lbs., $2.40. 
Swiss Chard Bladbede (Scan.) 
LUCULLUS. To our mind the best vegetable that can be raised for greens. 
The outside leaves are picked off and the plant yields a constant crop from 
July well into September. The leaves are very large-and picking a mess 
of Swiss Chard for greens is short work. In addition to its value for rich 
greens, the broad white stems and midribs may be cooked like asparagus 
or used for pickles. Swiss Chard gives big returns with little care. Pkt., 
5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 35c; Ya, lb., 55c; lb., 90c, postpaid.
