CARTERS TESTED SEEDS, INC. (Con8^ated) J. M. THORBURN & CO. Carters Red Emperor Mangel MANGEL WURZEL The Mangel Wurzel, also called Mangel, Cattle Beet and Field Beet, may be grown in almost any soil, but deep loams are necessary for heavy yields of the long varieties. When well grown the roots give an immense yield of very valuable food for stock. Plant early in spring in drills two to two and one-half feet apart, and about one inch apart in the row, covering with about one and one-half inches of fine soil firmly pressed down. Cultivate frequently. When about three inches high begin thinning and continue at intervals until the roots stand about ten inches apart. 1910. Carters Improved Mammoth Long Red. The largest and most productive of all the long red sorts. It is smooth skinned and fine grained, and very regular in size. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 15c, 1 lb. $1.00. 1915. Carters Red Emperor. A heavy cropping intermediate variety, with high feeding value, density of flesh, digestible solids, and keeping qualities. Its rich, solid flesh renders Carters Red Emperor a valuable Mangel for stock raisers who require the maximum bulk of feed. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 15c, 1 lb. $1.00. 1920. Carters Dreadnought. This is a fine type of the intermediate oval-shaped Yellow Mangel, possessing a small top and fine shoulder. It withstands the drought, and from its peculiar habit this variety may be set closer in rows than other sorts. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 15c, 1 lb. $1.00. 1925. Carters Windsor. A big improvement on any of the yellow-flesh Globe Mangels. It grows such a clean root, free from fangs, and with a small top, that the crop is easily pulled. This Mangel is capable of producing from 90 to 120 tons per acre. We recommend it as the best all-round variety where only one sort is grown. Carters Windsor is well-known to be the best Yellow Globe Mangel in cultivation. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 15c, 1 lb. $1.00. 1930. Lord Warden. A deep orange Globe Mangel which grows to an immense size, is extremely hardy, very suitable for cold soils and will produce enormous crops. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 15c, 1 lb. $1.00. 1850. Giant Half-Sugar. The upper portion is of a soft bright pink, shading lighter toward the bottom, where the lower portion for about one-third the length is white. The flesh is pure white, firm and very sweet. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, lb. $1.00. 1852. Giant Yellow Intermediate. Between the long and globe sorts in shape, skin yellow, flesh white with yellow zones. Better than longer kinds for shallow soils. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, lb. $1.00. GOLDEN TANKARD MANGEL Contains more elements of saccharine than most other sorts. Many leading dairymen prefer to sacrifice yield to secure nutriment, as it increases the flow of milk to a remarkable degree. The roots are handsome, of an ideal cylindrical form, with small neck, clean, generally with only one tap-root, and can easily be harvested, and are excellent keepers. The skin is light gray and deep orange below the ground; the flesh is a bright yellow. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, lb. $1.00. SUGAR BEET The Sugar Beets are desirable not only for sugar making but are valuable for stock feeding and when small may be used for the table. The best soil is a rich, friable, sandy, or clayey loam. Rich, mucky soils will often give an immense yield of roots which, though excellent for feed, are of little value for sugar making. Plant early in spring in drills two to two and one-half feet apart and about one inch apart in the row, covering with about one and one-half inches of fine soil firmly pressed down. Cultivate frequently. When about three inches high begin thinning and continue at intervals until the roots stand about ten inches apart. 2000. Klein Wanzleben. More extensively grown than any other variety for making sugar; used almost exclusively by all sugar factories. The average yield is from 15 to 20 tons per acre with about 18 per cent. of sugar. Our seed is pedigree stock, producing roots testing highest in sugar content. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15., lb. $1.25. 2010. Vilmorin's Improved. One of the richest sorts in sugar content. The tops are of medium size, with smooth, bright green leaves. The roots are of medium size, similar in appearance to Jaensch's Victrix, with white flesh and often yield from ten to sixteen tons per acre. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, lb. $1.00. 2015. Carters Improved White Sugar Beet. A superior variety of the Continental Sugar Beet. Pkt. 5c, 1 oz. 20c, 1 lb. $1.50. BROCCOLI This vegetable resembles Cauliflower, but is much hardier. Start in the house, or hot bed very early and transplant to open garden as soon as the. ground can be worked. 2130. Veitch's Self-protecting. Early variety with good heading qualities and very hardy. Pkt. 10c, 1 oz. 50c. 2100. Early White. Pkt. 10c, oz. 40c. 2122. Purple, Sprouting. Pkt. 10c, oz. 30c. 2123. Sharpe's Monarch. A fine white market Broccoli variety. Pkt. 10c, oz. 50c.
