fleshed Turnip on the market. Roots are large with

except at the top, which is green. The flesh is light 
yellow, of fine texture and very sweet when cooked.

Green except it has an outside red crown.

skinned, early orange and yellow fleshed.

entirely for greens and salad. It may be left stand- 
ing in the open ground during Winter as far north 
as Philadelphia. Very hardy. In the Spring, in the 
Southern States, it yields an abundant foliage for

principally cultivated in the Southern States.

duces an abundance of tender delicately flavored 
leaves, and later a full crop of very tender Turnips, 
closely resembling Early White Flat Dutch. Is a 
very rapid grower. The leaves as greens, being 
ready fully as early as any of the Turnips for greens. 
After the leaves are cut the roots form rapidly, 
reaching maturity almost as early as Flat Dutch.

dale Swede is the parent of all neckless Rutabaga, 
called by some Improved Long Island Swede, quite 
wonderful in its fine breeding. It is a yellow globular

texture and flavor, a rich, creamy yellow, with a 
pura top. A good keeper. The best of the Ruta-
