Summary

[edit]
Description

THE BEET.
11
German Yellow Mangel Wurzel.
Green Mangel Wurzel. Jaune d'Allemagne. Vil.
Root produced half above ground, nearly cylindrical for
two-thirds its length, terminating rather bluntly, and often
branched or deformed by small side-roots. Size large ; when
well grown, measuring sixteen or eighteen inches deep, six or
seven inches in diameter, and weighing from twelve to fifteen
pounds. Skin above ground, greenish-brown ; below, yellow.
Flesh white, occasionally zoned or marked with yellow.
Leaves of medium size, rather numerous, erect, very pale, or
yellowish green ; the stems and ribs light green.
While young and small, the roots are tender and well-
flavored ; but this is a field rather than a table beet. In
point of productiveness, it differs little from the Common
Long Red, and should be cultivated as directed for that
variety.
Half Long Blood.
Dwarf Blood. Fine Dwarf Red. Early Half Long Blood. Rouge
Nain. Vil.
Root produced within the earth, of medium
size, or rather small ; usually measuring about
three inches in thickness near the crown, and ta-
pering regularly to a point ; the length being ten
or twelve inches. Skin smooth, very deep pur-
plish-red. Flesh deep blood-red, circled and
rayed with paler red, remarkably fine grained, of
firm texture, and very sugary. Leaves small,
bright red, blistered on the surface, and spreading
horizontally. Leaf-stems short.
An excellent, half-early, garden variety, sweet,
and well flavored, a good keeper, and by many

considered veiy superior to the Common Long
Date

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
