success with growers who tried it last year. The ta

in nearly all weather, spring, summer and fall, and bring premium prices on the market. 
The roots are of fine bunching type, smooth and early with slender tap roots and good color. 
Altogether a fine type and especially valuable in cool weather. Growers also prefer it as a beet to 
grow for greens. See prices below.

Weare proud of our stock of this grand beet for

breeding here on our farms. It is a very smooth, 
refined early type with good streng tops that 
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 in-

uniformity have been still further improved, 
and we can confidently say that this strain is 
without equal for fine shape, color, and quality.
