1933 
WORLD 
FAI R. 
We first offered Salzer’s Cherry Beet in 
1933,'the memorable Chicago World’s Fair 
year, as the Unknown Beet, and thou¬ 
sands planted it, to find it one of the 
nicest beets grown! Salzer’s Cherry Beet 
is a small, early beet, maturing in 52 days 
and is especially fine for canning and 
pickling whole at 1»4 to IVa inches in 
diameter. Roots are smooth, even in size 
and shape and almost perfectly globular. 
Tops and tap roots are very small. The 
flesh is an intense deep crimson, free 
from white zones, elegant in quality. 
Yields heavily. While it is a splendid 
beet for canning, its attractive color and 
small uniform size make it ideal for daily 
table use. The fiesh is so fine grained, so 
sweet and tasty, that it almost sets a 
new standard for beet quality! Fine for 
both home and market. 160—Pkg., 10c; 
oz., 15c; 2 oz., 25c; % lb., 40c; ^ lb., 69c; 
"b., $1.25, postpaid. 
CnOSBV'S EGYPTIAN 
One of the most extensively grown of any va¬ 
riety of beets, by market gardeners. It is noted 
for its handsome form, small tops, very small tap¬ 
root, fine quality and quick, rapid growth. Roots 
run uniform in size and 
shape, are rather flat¬ 
tened, turnip shaped, 
reach a good size, are 
tender and crisp. Flesh 
is an attractive dark red 
color with slightly lighter 
red zonings. Especially 
desirable for bunching 
for the early market. 
Takes on its turnip shape 
very early. Matures in 
45 days. Also fine for 
the home gardener. We 
specialize in beet 
seed and we don’t 
believe any better 
strains can be pur- 
ch.'ised.

SALZER’S EARLY WONDER BEETS 
Its beautiful deep blood-red color, 
nearly globe-shaped root with almost 
no lighter zoning in the cross-section of 
the root, its small sized top and its 
smooth, clean, and small tap-root makes 
it a decided asset in the beet family. 
Matures evenly so that the entire crop 
may be gathered at one time. It is a 
very rapid grower, is very quickly in 
presentable market shape, and because 
of its early maturity, it can be sown 
outside as late as July. Matures in 44 
days.

Also known as Sea Kale. Is grown for its stalks and leaves, as it does not make a bulbous, 
edible root like the other varieties of beets. The leaves grow large and upright and as the 
outer leaves are cut, more come from the center. Yields a constant crop from July until winter, 
and can be used all summer when spinach is not available. The mid-rih or center stem of each 
leaf is large, broad, and white, and after trimming can be cooked and served like asparagus. The 
leaf part is cooked like spinach.
