This superb variety IS the result of a careful selection for several years past of the French Imperial Sugar Beet, by Mr. Henry Lane, an experienced farmer of Vermont. After a satisfactory trial we can recommend it with the greatest confidence, as being hardier, more productive, and containing a greater percentage of sugar than the ordinary variety, and much better adapted for cultivation in this country, either for stock or for the manufacture of sugar. We hear the most favorable reports from those who have tested it in various sections of the country, all of whom are satisfied of its superiority^ It is the best Beet raised for feeding cows or young stock. From thirty to forty tons raised to the acre at a cost of from five to eight cents per bushel. The cheapness with which it can be raised, the large amount of healthy nutritious food raised to the acre, and its great value as food for cattle, sheep and swine, makes this the most profitable root to raise.
