Golden Tankard Yellow Mangel—My say that this is the most desirable variety they have ev^r grown for it contains more sugar and less water than any other'variety of its class. It is also claimed that it is one of the leading varieties in England, as it is highly prized for dairy farmers. It is claimed that sheep prefer this to any other. It certainly is a very fine mangel, and, on account of its peculiar shape, can be left very close in tne rows, which makes it a very heavy cropper. It matures quite early, in fact, a little earlier than the other sorts; is hardy and, undei good cultivation, will yield from 50 to 60 tons per tons per acre. Per pkt. 5c.; oz.

It grows .ibout two-thirds out of the groimd and I have frequentl}' grown them to weigh 25 pounds each.
