EARLY WONDER or 
BOSTON CROSBY.

Egyptian is not as early as 
the Improved. The roots are 
very uniform and more near-

flesh and very little zoning. 
A very popular variety with 
market gardeners and unex-

} OHIO CANNER. This deep blood red Beet is free from 
zoning, flattened globe in shape, uniform 
in growth, tender, sweet, the most handsome Beet when 
canned that we know and outstanding for interior color. A 
desirable sort for all purposes. Pkt., 10c; 0z., 20c; %4 Ib.,

SWISS CHARD 
LUCULLUS. To our mind the best vegetable that can be raised 
for greens. The crumpled, rich green outside leaves are picked 
off and the plant yields a constant crop from July well into 
September. The leaves are large and picking a mess of Swiss 
Chard for greens is short work. The thick broad stems may be 
cooked like asparagus or used for pickles. This is the most 
popular sort and gives big returns with little care. Pkt., 7c; 
oz., 15c; %4 Ib., 50c; \% Ib., 80c; 1 Ib., $1.40, postpaid.
