Grown by us in Connecticut 
Owing to the great amount of care 
and labor involved in making this 
the best strain on the market, we 
are obliged to ask a higher price 
than for the ordinary stock. How- 
ever, the better price you will ob- 
tain for these extra fine turnips will 
more than offset the small increase 
in cost. Its particular feature is its 
very bright red top which goes well 
down on the root. It is a quick 
growing type, with fine flavored 
white flesh. Keeps well for such an 
early variety. Pkt 10e-voz. sloc6 34
