RED TOP WHITE GLOBE (Reselected) 58-63 days 
This Special Strain is grown by us in Connecticut, and 
owing to the great amount of care and labor involved in 
making this the best strain on the market, we naturally have 
to ask a higher price for it than for the regular stock. How- 
ever, many of our customers feel that the higher price they 
obtain for these extra fine turnips more than offsets the 
small increase in cost. Its particular feature is the purplish 
tinged red top which goes well down on the root. It is a 
quick growing type with finely flavored white flesh. It keeps
