Mangels 
THE MANGEL WUEZEL, also called Mangel, Stock 
Beet, Cattle Beet, and Field Beet, may be grown 
in almost any soil, but deep loams are necessary 
for heavy yields of the long varieties. When well 
grown the roots give an immense yield of very 
- valuable food for stock. Plant early in spring in 
drills 2 to 2¥2 feet apart, and about % inch apart 
in the row, covering with about 1% inches of 
fine soil firmly pressed down. Cultivate frequent- 
ly. When about 3 inches high begin thinning 
and continue at-intervals until the roots stand 
about 10 inches apart. 
GIANT FEEDING or HALF SUGAR. 90 days. A 
very valuable variety for stock feeding on ac- 
count of its high sugar content. Yields are not 
so large as from Mangels, but the quality is 
higher. Roots are long ovoid, easily gathered. 
The Green Top is grayish white with light bronze 
green shoulder, flesh white. The Rosy Top is 
rose colored on the upper part, lower part white, 
white flesh. 
SUGAR BEETS. Do not yield as much tonnage per 
acre as Mangels, but are of superior quality on 
account of higher sugar content. 
GOLDEN TANKARD. 90 days. A rapidly maturing 
Mangel adapted to shallow land, although doing 
well on every soil. Tankard shaped. Roots large; 
thick-oval, nearly cylindrical; light gray above, 
deep orange below ground. Flesh golden yellow 
zoned white and very sweet. 
DANISH SLUDSTRUP. Long reddish yellow; grows 
well above ground and is easy to pull. Flesh 
white with faint yellow tinge. Its uniform growth 
of large, well-shaped beets rich in saccharine, 
its record for producing rich milk and sweet but- 
ter, has made it the popular beet. Heavy yielder. 
MAMMOTH LONG RED. 110 days. The largest and 
most productive Mangel. Often reaches 24 to 30 
inches in length, weighing from 25 to 35 pounds. 
Roots are uniformly straight and well formed, 
and the flesh is white tinged with: rose. Easily 
harvested, as roots grow one-half out of the 
ground.
