Harris’ Special Crosby’s Egyptian 
Finest Beet For Early Bunching 
Harris’ Crosby is without question the besy early bunching beet obtainable. It is very early, 
makes a good top and handsome dark red beets with small tap roots. Their smoothness and uni- 
form shape makes them invariably the finest looking beets in the market, and they naturally 
command top prices. 
We are proud of our stock of this grand beet, for it is backed by over thirty years of careful 
breeding here on our own farms. As we have said many times, ‘‘Every one a model for shape and 
color.’’ See prices below. 
“There are no beets under the sun that compare with Harris’ Special Strain Crosby.”

Harris’ Special 
Detroit Dark Red 
Best Beet for Late Summer and Fall 
No better strain of this fine beet can be 
obtained. The roots are of excellent globe 
shape, smooth and very uniform with a 
solid deep red color that is well liked by 
canners and market buyers alike. This is a 
large topped strain, and therefore particu- 
larly fine for late summer and fall bunching. 
There is no beet quite so satisfactory 
in all respects as Harris’ Special Detroit. 
See prices below. 
Perfected Detroit 
Famous For Fine Color 
_ This strain of Detroit Dark Red type 
is a favorite of canners because of its beau- 
tiful dark interior color. The beets are 
more flattened in shape and not quite as 
smooth as Harris’ Special Detroit but the 
color is very intense dark red with prac- 
tically no zoning. The flesh is of excellent 
quality, being tender and sweet. The tops 
are large. We highly recommend this stock 
both for market and canning. See prices
