O O LU M B I A BEET. THR handsome appearance of this new Beet is well shown in the illustration. The roots are of a neat turnip-'Nhiipe, with smooth skin and deep blood-red flesh, of rich, tend«'r quality. It is ready to use very early, growing as quickly as does the Egyptian, while it does not become coarse and stringy. Compared with such famous sorts as Ediiiand's and Eclipse, the Columbia has proved as early and even better in quality than tht'se two really first-class varieties. In habit of growth it is remarkably thoroughbred, the foliage being small, neat, and of a rich bronze color. VW are sure that market gar- deners will find it a splendid variety, while its fine flavor as a table beet will delight all private planters. Price per pkt. 5cts., oz. 15 cts.
