ALLEN’S SELECT. Several years ago we 
noticed in a bed of Crosby’s Egyptian, a 
Beet that grew faster and larger, and ma- 
tured earlier than the rest. After careful 
testing we became convinced that this 
Beet is not only of commercial value, but 
deserves trial by all lovers of Beets. It is 
globular, dark red, fine flavored and a 
good keeper. Ripens early, excellent for 
greens. We have only a limited quantity 
of this seed. 
CRIMSON GLOBE. From England and still 
one of the best globe-shaped Beets. Can 
be marketed early. 
CROSBY’S EGYPTIAN IMPROVED. A 
quick grower, best quality, good for fore- 
ing in or out-of-doors. Roundish, well 
colored, a favorite with market gardeners. 
Our seed is fresh and will satisfy. 
DETROIT DARK RED. Small tops, can be 
placed close. Very sweet, fine flavor for 
table use. 
ECLIPSE. Early and smooth, 
good quality. Can’t be beat. 
OHIO CANNER. This Beet has been devel- 
oped to meet the exacting demands of the 
canner for a smooth, perfectly formed 
Beet with deep colored flesh. It is the re- 
sult of the inbreeding of many genera- 
tions of Beets by the Ohio Agricultural 
Experiment Station. The tops are small 
and dark colored. The roots are uniformly 
round in shape with a small tap root. 
Flesh is intense deep blood-red without 
any trace of light zones. Commercial 
growers will find here a splendid paying 
sort. It is also a splendid variety for the 
home garden.
