At prices quoted on this pagre all seed is sent postpaid. MAY'S MAMMOTH LONG- RED.—This is the finest the Long Red ever offered. The mangels raised from our selected seed are remarkable for their immense size (often weighing 30 to 50 lbs. each) and freedom from the coarse grain so often found in the large varieties. If you want a big crop of fine mangels that will be a great benefit to your stock, increasing the flow of milk and fattening them, you can find nothing that will beat our Mammoth. We know from experience that the Giant Golden, English Prize and May's Mammoth are unequaled when it comes to both quality and/yield. Pkt. 5e, oz. 10c, Y\ lb. 20c, lb. 45c. ' ENGLISH PRIZE MANGEL.—The great variety so extensively grown in England for stock feeding. Specimens have been grown weighing over seventy pounds, and it is one of the heaviest croppers that has ever been sent to this country, yielding 1,500 to 1,800 bushels per acre. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, % lb. 25c, lb. 65c. is an entirely distinct type of Mangel, of recent in- troduction, and highly prized wherever introduced. In England it is largely grown by dairymen and sheep raisers; the former prize it not only for its frreat yield, but for the rich character of the milk it produces, while the atter claim sheep fed on it thrive better and appear in much finer condi- tion. Its wonderful yield and popularityin the old country certainly recommends it to every stock grower in America, and from our experiencewith it we know it will prove very valuable to all dairymen. The flesh is a light vellow and fine grained. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, M
