and is absolutely unsurpassed for quality by any Beet we know. This grand, main crop Beet—

all stages of growth. Although they grow very large, Holmes’ Green Top Beets are still just as 
tender as the young early Beets. They will retain their fine quality when stored for winter use.

GOLDEN ACRE 
CABBAGE 
Best Early

tive, round heads are crisp and de- 
licious to eat. Gardeners recognize 
this as a most profitable early cab-

ance. The white flesh is unusually thick with very small

ability to produce under adverse 
conditions and its excellent quality.

popularity. Does well over greater 
part of United States, primarily be- 
cause it sets pods in hot weather
