Early Purple Top Munich.—A handsome early Turnip, decidedly earlier than any other sort; color white with bright purplish red top ; of fine quality when young and recom- mended as the very best for a first crop. Early Flat Dutch (Strap Leaved).—This is the most popular early Turnip for table use; very early, sweet and tender, and sure to bulb. Early Purple Top {Strap Leaved.)—Very similar to the preceding except in color, being purple or dark red on top ; form round, flat, with but few leaves, which are of upright growth. This is the standard variety, and there is none better for general purposes. Large Early Red Top Globe.—Only recently in- troduced ; very attractive, of large size and rapid growth. It is a very heavy producer, and quite as early as the Flat Red Top. Early White Egg.—A recently introduced variety ; color pure white, egg-shaped, of very rapid growth, and of good quality. Pomeranian White Globe {Strap Leaved.)—A free-growing, rough-leaved variety, and very productive ; will, frequently, in good rich soil grow to ten or twelve pounds in weight; it is a perfect globe in shape, skin white and smooth. A first rate kind for either table use or stock. White Norfolk.—One of the standard field sorts; and is extensively grown every- where for stock feeding. In shape, round, color white, and often grows to large size. It is an admirable Early Purple Top Munich,.
