Allen’s Select. Several years ago we noticed in a bed of Crosby’s Egyptian, a Beet that grew faster and 
larger, and matured earlier than the rest. After carefully testing and saving the seed, we became con¬ 
vinced that this Beet is not only of commercial value, but deserves trial by all lovers of Beets. It is globular 
in shape, dark red color, fine flavored and a good keeper. Ripens early, excellent for greens. We can spare 
only a limited quantity of this seed. . 
Crimson Globe. From England and still one of the best globe-shaped Beets. Can be marketed early. 
Crosby’s Egyptian Improved. A quick grower, best quality, good for forcing in- or out-of-doors. 
Roundish, well-colored, a favorite with market gardeners in this section. Our seed is fresh and will 
satisfy. „ , . 
Detroit Dark Bed. Small tops, can be placed close. Very sweet, fine for table use. 
Eclipse. Early and smooth, roundish, good quality. Can’t be beat. 
Ohio Canner. This Beet has been developed to meet the ex¬ 
acting demands of the canner for a smooth, perfectly formed 
Beet with deep colored flesh. It is the result of the inbreed¬ 
ing of many generations of Beets by the Ohio Agricultural 
Experiment Station. The tops are small and dark colored. 
The roots are uniformly round in shape with a small tap 
root. Flesh is intense deep blood-red without any trace of 
light zones. Commercial growers will find here a splendid 
paying sort. It is also a splendid variety for the home 
garden.
