Our beet seed is all raised from selected roots. 
Bad shaped and off colored roots are 
wee and only perfect specimens planted to produce seed. This is why all of the beets 
you raise from Gurney seed are perfect in shape and color, and so attractive and delicious 
either boiled, used for salads, or pickled. 
TABLE BEETS 


























smooth, globe shaped beet with small neck and 
tap root. A pedigreed stock—the result of many 
|| years of pure line breeding. The flesh is an intense 
dark red. You may pull a dozen or a hundred beets 
nd there will be no variation in shape. Cut them 
nd every one will be the same glowing dark red 
color. They are very early and very good both 
for bunching and winter use. —

DETROIT DARK RED: This dark red beet is a 
winner for every purpose. It is early and the 
small tops and good shaped globe roots make it 
ideal for bunching. The flesh is very dark red with 
indistinct rings and is very sweet and tender. One 
of the best winter keepers. More Detroit Dark 
Red are grown than all other varieties combined.

GURNEY’S EARLY MODEL GLOBE. See 
Colored Picture on page 15. Most beets have light 
rings which spoil their appearance when cut. 
Through years of careful selection, we have prac- 
tically eliminated these rings in Model Globe. 
They are dark red clear through. Model Globe 
is medium early, good for bunching or winter use. 
For the best beets, even in size, color, and shape, 
plant Gurney’s Early Model Globe.

CROSBY’S EGYPTIAN: This is the smoothest 
and best bunching beet. The tops are small and 
the globe shaped roots are a very attractive red. 
The vermilion red flesh is very sweet and tender. — 
For your early planting, try Crosby’s Egyptian.

SWISS CHARD 
FOR GREENS: Swiss Chard will make more and 
better greens than any other vegetable. It is 
grown for its leaves and stems, as it does not make 
a bulb like other beets. The large stems when 
creamed are delicious and will take the place of 
Asparagus. It is an immense yielder and can be 
used from early spring until late fall.

MANGELS 

15 Se reas LONG RED ae 
giant HALF SUGAR ROSE MANGELS 
Do you want more eggs next winter when prices 
are high? Do you want cream checks from one- 
fourth to one-half larger? Of course you do. 
Then why not raise mangels for your cows and 
poultry. They are easy to raise and will outyield 
anything else you can plant. Every Danish and 
Scandinavian farmer raises mangels for his live- 
stock. 
MAMMOTH LONG RED: The roots are very 
long and easily harvested as half the mangel grows 
above ground. They yield enormously—often 40 
tons per acre. Individual roots sometimes weigh 
20 pounds and are over 21% feet long. 
1 oz., 7c; % Ib., 35c; 1 Ib., 65c; 5 Ibs., $3.00 
Postpaid. 
DANISH SLUDSTRUP: This heavy yielding 
mangel is shorter and thicker than the Mammoth 
Long Red. The yellow roots grow well above 
ground and are easily harvested. They are the 
best keepers of the mangels. 
1 oz., 7c; % Ib., 35c; 1 Ib., 65c; 5 Ibs., $3. 00 
Postpaid. 
GIANT HALF SUGAR ROSE: This is a half 
sugar beet and is sweeter and more nutritious than 
mangels. The oval red roots weigh about 6 pounds 
each, are easily harvested, and are wonderful 
poultry feed. 
1 oz., 7c; ¥% Ib., 35c; 1 Ib., 65c; 5 Ibs., $3.00 
Postpaid. 
WHITE KLEIN WANZLEBEN—Sugar Beet: 
This has the highest sugar content of any sugar 
beet. The long roots are pure white, and under 
good conditions will yield over 15 tons per acre. 
1 oz., 7c; % Ib., 35c; 1 Ib., 65c; 5 Ibs., $3.00
