949 RIVERHEAD, L. I., Strain 
The Long Island Ruta Bagas have established a nation-wide 
reputation for their high quality; so, when an improvement ap- 
pears in this type, it can be accepted at once as an outstanding 
‘and extraordinary sort. For many years, it has been the object 
of growers of this valuable vegetable to obtain a type that would 
be finer in texture and flavor. In other words, to grow a Ruta 
Baga, that would create a greater appeal for table use. We believe 
that the Riverhead strain will supply that appeal. It is very 
refined in appearance, smooth and clean, medium in size, globular 
in shape with small top growth and no indication of a neck. Its 
flavor is sweet and delicious; as desirable for the home garden 
as it will be for the market grower.
