211 Crosby Green Top (New) 
Bright Green, Fresh Looking Leaves (See Photo on Front Cover) 
To get bunch beets with a clean, fresh appearance even in cool weather, grow this new Harris 
strain of Crosby, developed here on our farms. The tall, erect tops are bright, glossy green and will 
not turn red in the fall. 
Almost as fine as our regular Crosby's, the roots are an excellent bunching type, smooth and 
early with slender tap roots and good color. We believe this will be a most valuable market variety. 
See prices below. 
212 Harris’ Special 
Crosby’s Egyptian 
We are glad we can offer once again our own 
strain of Crosby’s Egyptian, which is without 
question the best early bunching beet obtain- 
able. It is very early, makes a good strong top 
and the leaves hold their color well. 
The beets are very handsome, dark red in 
color with small tap roots. The smoothness and 
uniform shape of this strain make them invari- 
ably the finest looking beets in the market, and 
they naturally command top prices. 
We are proud of our stock of this grand beet, 
for it is backed by over thirty years of careful 
breeding here on our own farms. As we have 
said many times, ‘“‘Every one a model for shape 
and color.’’ See prices below.

215 Detroit Dark Red 
Harris’ Special Strain 
Famous for Color and Shape 
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
