Cole's Seed Store, Pella, Iowa 5. New Beet The Fireball Mr. Vaughan, the introducer, says: This new beet is perfectly globe shaped, extra early in season and earlier than Crosby's. The skin is smooth, the flesh is solid with a very sweet flavor, and of a bright intense red color. The tap root is tiny and the leaf stalks are quite small, making it valuable for early and late sowing in frames. It Is also very desirable in the open ground where it retains its fresh table qualities better than most beets. In home gardens it is absolutely without a superior. We be- lieve this variety will prove one of the most popular beets introduced in years. Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., % lb. 35 cts., lb. $ Early Model Beet This splendid variety has attained perfection for table use. This is indeed a model variety, and will bo highly appreciated both for forcing and growing outside. It is a medium early variety. The roots are of good size and run uniformly per- fect, almost round, with small dark crimson leaves, and a slim tap root. In quality and color it is peerless, very fine grained, tender and sweet, never woody or stringy. Color of flesh deep rich blood crimson, equaling that of the best long Beets.
