LINCOLN, NEBRASKA 5 Crosby's Eg-yptiaii. A very fine new strain. Turnip sliaped, of good form, small necked, with short tops and deep, blood color. Edmund's Improved Blood Turnip. A handsome turnip-shaped blood beet. Skin and Hesh are of a deep, blood red; sweet and tender in quality, and unsurpassed for solidity and keeping purposes. Klein-Wanzleben. This kind is cultivated on a larger scale than any other sugar beet. The root is conical, straight, and even, quite large at the head and rapidly tapering. It is easy to dig, a heavy yielder, and contains from 13 to 15 per cent of sugar. Freneli White Sug-ar. Roots white, with red top; of medium size; fine grained and Improved Lon^ Dark Blood Beet. Tops large, necks small, roots large, tapering, growing even with the surface, dark red, flesh dark red, very tender and sweet. Swiss Chard, or Silver. Cultivated for its leaves. The mid-rib is stewed and served as as- paragus, other portions of the leaves as spinach. MANGEL WURZELS AND SUGAR BEETS. Sow in April or May, 5 pounds per acre. The value of these for stock feeding cannot be over- estimated. For sheep, dairy stock, and fatten- ing of cattle, experience has proved the Mangel Wurzel to be at once healthful, nutricious, and economical. One ounce will sow 100 feet drill. Mammotm^ong- Red. Remarkable for its massive root. Yellow Globe. A large, round, orange- colored sort, gyowing largely above the sur- face. It is hardly as good a yielder as the red sorts, but is more nutricious and fattening, especially desirable for milch cows. Lane's Imperial Sugar. Grows to a large size, roots half long and white. Grown gen- erally for feeding stock. It is very sweet, and in some countries is used exclusively for the ex- traction of sugar. For prices. Please note that these images are extracted from
