PURPLE TOP WHITE GLOBE, SMITH STRAIN 
(XXX Purple Top White Globe) 57 Days 
Owing to the great amount of care and labor involved in making this 
the best strain on the market, we are obliged to ask a higher price than 
for ordinary stock. However, the better price you will obtain for these 
extra fine turnips will more than offset the small increase in cost. Its 
particular feature is its bright red top which goes well down on the 
root. It is a quick growing type, with fine flavored flesh. Keeps well.
