NO HARRIS’ CROSBY THIS YEAR 
We regret that we have no seed to offer of 
Harris’ Special Crosby’s Egyptian Beet this 
year, because of failure of our seed crops. 
Next year we expect to offer our own strain 
again, but in the meantime, we suggest that 
our customers try in its place the excellent 
strain described below. 

213 Crosby’s Egyptian 
A Fine, Uniform Strain of Standard Type 
We have selected this strain of Crosby as the 
nearest thing to our own unbeatable strain to 
be had. Extensive trials have shown that its 
uniform shape, smooth appearance and dark 
interior color are as good as any on the market 
this year, and we are glad to be able to offer 
our customers such a satisfactory substitute. 
It is early and has the flattened globe shape 
and small tap roots that make a good bunching 
beet for market. The tops are medium tall and 
hold their green color well even in cool weather. 
We can recommend this strain highly. See 
prices below. 

HARRIS’ DETROIT DARK RED 
None better for the canners. 

We rejected many strains before we found 
a satisfactory substitute for our Crosby. 
215 Detroit Dark Red 
Harris’ Special Strain 
Famous for Fine Color, Good Shape and Big Yields 
This is the best beet for late summer and fall 
trade. It is not only of excellent globe shape 
but has a superb deep red color that is without 
equal. Harris’ Special Detroit Dark Red is a 
vigorous large topped strain which is particu- 
larly fine for fall bunching, and is also perfectly 
suited for canners. We know canners who 
insist on Detroit beets grown from our seed in 
preference to all others. 
We have grown and selected this strain for 
many years on our farms and now we can con- 
fidently state that no better strain of Detroit 
beet can be obtained. It will produce heavier 
yields of smooth, round, dark red beets than 
any other. See prices below. 
ARASAN is now established as the best seed
