17— BUCHANAN’S MARKET GARDENER BEET (45 days)—Our gardener’s favorite, owing 
to its extreme earliness and uniformity in both shape and color. It is without a doubt the best 
beet for the home garden, or for canning. The tops are small and upright in growth. The 
leaves are dark green, shaded red. The roots are medium size, globular, very smooth and of 
dark blood red color, while the flesh is a deep vermilion red, zoned with lighter shade. It is 
unsurpassed in quality. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; y 4 lb., 25c; y 2 lb., 45c; 1 lb., 75c; 2 lbs., $1.25 
24—CROSBY’S EGYPTIAN (45 days)—We recommend Crosby’s Egyptian as a combination of 
earliness, good shape, good color and good quality. The color is bright red, with bright 
vermilion-red flesh, very sweet and tender. We have a splendidly bred pedigreed stock that 
is early, has fine shape and color and we believe cannot be surpassed for quality.

color, always smooth, never stringy, and a good keeper. The flesh is a deep rich red, sweet, 
crisp and tender. Although bred primarily for market growers, its many fine qualities com¬ 
mend it highly to the home gardener. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 25c; % lb., 35c; 1 lb., 60c; 2 lbs., $1.00

GARDEN BEETS 
For the earliest beets, plant in a hot bed and transplant. For early outdoor crop, plant in March 
and make successive plantings till the end of August; the late plantings are to make beets for winter use 
and the seeds should be well soaked before planting. Beets thrive best in a light, clean, deeply worked 
soil that has been previously well manured; Bmooth roots cannot be had if fresh manure is used. Plant 
in rows 16 or 16 inches apart, cover 1 inch and thin to 4 inches apart. One ounce will plant 60 feet of row; 
6 to 8 pounds, 1 acre. 
CAULIFLOWER 
Long Red Stock Beets 
Market Gardener Beet 
STOCK BEETS OR MANGELS 
CULTURE—Plantings should be made beginning at corn planting time till the middle of 
June, soaking the seeds for 24 hours before planting. Make the rows 2 to 2^ feet apart, the 
drills 1 inch deep on lands that have plenty of moisture in the subsoil; on dry and sandy soil 
they should be planted deeper. Shallow plantings germinate better and give a larger propor¬ 
tion of vigorous plants. Thin out to stand 8 inches apart in the row; young plants may be 
transplanted to fill up vacancies. One ounce will sow 50 feet of drill; 6 pounds to acre. 
28—GIANT HALF SUGAR MANGEL (90 days)—Desirable for stock feeding, afford¬ 
ing not only a very large crop, much easier to harvest than other sorts, but also 
having higher nutritive value, being especially rich in sugar.

30—MAMMOTH PRIZE LONG RED (110 days)—No other mangel can compare with 
this variety in yield. Crops of 40 to 50 tons per acre have been made on good land 
and under thorough cultivation. The roots often weigh 20 to 25 pounds each. It 
grows well above ground, is easily pulled; the deep red roots are straight, well- 
formed and solid. A fine keeper and, at a low cost, will supply an abundance of 
succulent green food for stock of all kinds and for poultry. Especially adapted to 
deep soils. Oz., 10c; y 4 lb., 15c; y 2 lb., 25c; 1 lb., 40c; 2 lbs., 60c; 5 lbs., $1.40 
Swiss Chard 
CULTURE—Cultivate like cabbage. Sow in January or February for early crop; May or June 
for late. Transplant to rich, moist soil; manure heavily and water freely. When heading begins, 
fasten leaves over top of head to whiten ; 1 ounce of seed makes 1,000 plants. 
109—EXTRA EARLY SNOWBALL (55 days)—There is no better cauliflower for South¬ 
ern growers, and our strain is as fine as can be had at any price. It is not only the 
earliest to head, but a remarkably sure header, making large, solid, perfect pure white 
heads of the finest quality.
