211 Crosby Green Top 
Bright Green Leaves, Excellent Roots 
Several years ago we developed this exclusive 
green-topped beet out of our famous Harris’ 
Special Crosby, and it has quickly become the 
most popular bunching strain in many sec- 
tions. The tall erect tops hold their fresh look 
and their bright glossy green color all season 
long, even in cool weather when other strains 
get reddish and dull. 
The roots are of the best bunching type, 
smooth, refined and well-colored. The uni- 
form shape with slender tap roots, together 
with the green tops makes them bring pre- 
mium prices. For the best in bunching beets, 
plant Crosby Green Top. Also valuable to 
grow for greens. See prices below.

234 Waltham 29 (New) 
Uniform—Excellent for Fall Crops 
This variety has rather short stocky plants 
maturing evenly over a short period. It pro- 
duces tremendous crops of large, broad center 
heads, fine budded, of dark blue-green color 
and with evenly developed curd. When these 
are cut, the strong side shoots bear good sized, 
tight heads, excellent for freezing or market. 
Outstanding for uniformity and yield. 
Not recommended for spring transplanting, 
but excellent for fall crop, especially in the 
Northeast and along the Atlantic Coast. De- 
veloped by Dr. R. E. Young of the Waltham 
Field Station, Mass. 
Note: Be sure your soil has adequate boron.

212 Harris’ Special 
Crosby’s Egyptian 
This fine early bunching beet has been a 
Harris’ specialty for over fifty years. Con- 
stantly selected and improved here on our 
farms, it is a medium-topped type of excellent 
color, appearance and quality. The roots are 
smooth, slightly deeper than most Crosby 
strains but with very fine tap roots. When 
pulled for bunching they are generally the 
finest looking roots on the market. 
While the tops of this strain hold their color 
well, we suggest Crosby Green Top for mar- 
kets where color of top is most important. See 
prices below. 
DETROIT DARK RED—Harris’ Special Strain. 
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 superb deep red color that is almost without equal. Harris’ Special Detroit Dark Red is a 
vigorous large-topped strain which is particularly fine for fall bunching, and is also perfectly, 
suited for processing. Some canners choose 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 confi- 
dently 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.

230 Italian Green Sprouting 
Calabrese Strain—Widely Adapted 
Our sure-heading stock of this standard type 
is used by many of the best growers. It is me- 
dium early with large robust plants and pro- 
duces the fine, compact, tightly budded heads 
that the market wants. The side shoots de- 
velop freely and are of good size and fine 
type. A true, proven strain, successful in 
nearly all areas and adapted both for bunch- 
ing and freezing.

GREEN MOUNTAIN 
233 Green Mountain (New) 
Early Production of Fine Heads 
This new early strain replaces DeCicco and 
is highly promising for market growers and 
freezers. Its dark bluish-green center heads 
are large and compact, fairly small-budded 
and of good market type. The stems are 
branched and easily divided for freezing. Lat- 
eral shoots form rather slowly, but the type is 
good. Early, uniform in plant type and ma- 
turity, adapted for spring as well as fall crop, 
Green Mountain should give a high yield with 
a minimum of cuttings. Highly recommended.

236 Catskill —Heavy Yields—Finest Sprouts 
Since the Joseph Harris Company first introduced Catskill, it has been universally recognized 
as the best variety to grow in the East. Expert growers in many of the best sprout growing 
sections now use it almost exclusively. They prefer its dwarf, compact, uniform growth and 
the heavy sets of large, firm, dark green sprouts. The quality and dependability of our strain 
make it by far the finest and most productive to be had.
