Our beet seed is grown from selected transplanted roots and have given truckers and market gardeners, who appreciate a high standard of perfection, the utmost satisfaction. The soil best suited for beet culture is that which is rather light and well enriched. Sow in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep, as early as the ground can be worked. When the plants are large enough, thin out to stand 6 inches apart in rows; continue sowing for a succession as late as the middle of August. Keep well cultivated. The early varieties mature in 40 to 50 days; the midseason and late varieties require 70 to 100 days. Beets can readily be kept for winter use by packing them in slightly moist earth and storing in a cool cellar. 67. Bolgiano's Extra Early Superb, (illustrated in color on front cover.) (40 days.)

Is excellent as a forcing sort or as a main crop. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; V4 lb. 25 cts.; lb. 90 cts.; 2-lb lots, 80 cts. lb.; 5-lb lots, 70 cts. lb.; 10-lb. lots, 65 cts. lb., 47. Good for All.
