cality, from February 15th until June 15th, in furrows 8 feet 
apart. For later shipping many are planted from June 1st

GOLDEN BEAUTY. It is now grown more extensively 
throughout California than any other Casaba because of its 
beautiful appearance and delicious flavor. Distributors also

sumption this is one of the most popular variety.
