*GARDENER’S MODEL—This decided 
improvement over Early Model is so 
much better, so different from the orig- 
inal Early Model that we changed the 
name thus properly identifying this out- 
standing new beet. A splendid all around 
table beet for home or market. It is ex- 
tremely early, of smooth, uniform shape. 
The flesh is dark red, entirely free from 
strings or core and unusually sweet. The 
tops stand tall and erect. Valuable for 
both greens and roots. This variety will 
stand longer than any and still keep 
tender. Generally immune to curly top 
disease. Very popular with market gar- 
deners in many sections, especially for 
early bunching. Seed of our own growing.

Ib. $2.25.

market or home gardens and popular with 
canneries. Roots nearly round, very uni-

standing beet for deep red color.
