seen, the largest weighing 111/4 lbs.”

REUTER’S SHOGOIN TURNIP IS 
THOROUGHBRED 
Grown from carefully selected stock seed 
under expert supervision. It is superior to 
them all and can be absolutely depended upon 
to produce splendid results. 
Do not confuse Reuter's Shogoin Turnip with 
ordinary so-called Japanese Turnip, usually mar¬ 
keted in the South. 
Finest combination variety for both root and 
tops for greens. Rapidly forging ahead and will 
undoubtedly be the most popular Turnip for the 
South. It produces a heavy crop of leaves which 
are carried erect so that the greens are entirely 
free from sand and soil; its resistance to the turnip 
louse is almost unbelievable. In parts of the South 
where it is almost impossible because of thrip and 
aphis to grow a patch of Turnips, Reuter’s Shogoin 
Turnip is giving complete satisfaction. Thousands 
of my friends write me enthusiastic letters about 
the wonderful performance of this magnificent va¬ 
riety. The roots are pure white, of mild flavor and 
almost buttery texture.

happy—and 
proud of his

This is one of its greatest assets. No other Turnip 
equals Reuter’s Shogoin as a louse-resistant variety. It 
quickly produces an enormous yield of upright-growing, 
succulent foliage, usually 2 feet tall, which is crisp, ten¬ 
der and of superb mild flavor. The leaves are large, 
thick, juicy, of a bright green color and strap-leaved. 
The “greens” are ready for use in 25 days. The roots are 
large, semi-globular, all white, sweeter and milder than 
other Turnips, of excellent flavor, tender and of the finest 
mild turnip flavor. It’s the greatest dual-purpose Turnip 
ever introduced in the South. Remember that it resists heat, 
sun, cold, dry and wet weather and insect attacks. Ex¬ 
tremely popular and sells regularly at top prices on the mar¬ 
ket. You can’t go wrong when you plant Reuter’s Shogoin 
Turnip this suinmer and fall. Last year we sold more than 
40,000 pounds without a single complaint. Everybody praises 
it as the greatest. Turnip of them all. Be sure to order the 
genuine Japan-grown seed, produced especially for Reuter. 
Genuine Shogoin Turnip Seed is very scarce. Demand should 
exceed supply of seed this summer and fall. Reuter urges 
you to order early!
