from the ordinary
Continental stocks.
SUGAR BEET FOR FEEDING

SUGAR BEET.
KLEIN WANZLEBEN-
ELITE.
The most popular variety for sugar, yield-
ing heavy crops of roots with a high percent-
age of saccharine content. An average yield
under favorable circumstances being about 15
tons. Per lb., 60c postpaid. By express or
freight, 1 lb., 50c; 5 lbs., $2.00.
For feeding stock few crops equal Man-
gel-Wurzel and Sugar Beets. Canadian farm-
ers appear to appreciate this more than we
do. The roots are stored in barns or pits be-
fore hard frost sets in and fed during the
winter months.
The Giant Half-Sugar Beets are much
more productive than the Sugar Beets and
fully equal to the best of them in feeding
qualities. A large portion of the root being
above ground renders them easy to handle.
Every stockman should give them a trial.
Mangel-Wurzel are also very nutritious
and yield very heavy crops, often exceeding
1,500 bushels to the acre. It is not unusual
to grow roots weighing upwards of 20 lbs.
each on fairly rich soil.
Prepare the ground thoroughly, using a
liberal supply of barnyard manure, previous
