Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Trees Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. SEEDS California s Best BEET Note—Prices listed are postpaid. Table Beets Remolacha Rothe Ruebe Betterave Culture. This is one of few vegetables that can be grown the rear around. A beet patch completes the garden. Seed planted at intervals of three weeks will keep beets coming in rotation. The seed should be sown in drills 15 inches apart and IV2 inches deep, and covered by hand unless following field culture. (The use of a rake for this purpose disturbs the seed and often draw- the seed out of the ground. The result will be an irregular row. i Thin out then to 4 to 6 inches apart in the row. These young beets are excellent used as spinach. Frequent cultivation is essential to produce a successful crop. Extra Early Egyptian. A splendid variety that matures sooner than any others. Tops small, roots small, dark red, somewhat flattened and of good quality. Plant it for first early crop. Oz. 15c; % lb. 35c; 1 lb. $ $ .10 Improved Crosby or Early Wonder. As early and desir- able as the original Crosby, and of better color, being less of the light zoning. Tops small, roots very smooth and uniform making it an ideal beet for bunching. Our stock of this desirable variety is the best obtainable. Oz. 15c: % lb. 35c; 1 lb. Detroit Dark Red. The best general purpose variety on the list. Not quite so early as Egyptian but of finest quality. Roots medium size, nearly round and dark blood red color with no light zoning, making it especially desirable for canning and equally good for home use or bunching for the market. Oz. 15c; % lb. 40c; 1 lb. Swiss Chard, or Silver. Cultivated for its leafstalks, which are served like asparagus, and for its leaves, cooked like spinach. Cut often, as new stalks will be produced. Oz. 15c; % lb. 35c; 1 lb. $
