Excerpt from Sugar Beet Seed: A Work for Farmers, Seedsmen and Chemists, Containing Historical, Botanical and Theoretical Data; Combined With Practical Directions for the Production of Superior Sugar Beet Seed However, beets of those davs were so different from the kind now used for sugar-making that thev need no more than a passing notice. Knauer, with some authority, maintains that all existing varieties of sugar beets have five important starting points: Ist, Belgian; 2d, Quedlinburg; 3d, Silesian; 4th, Siberian, and 5th, the Imperial beet. Hundreds of varieties differ, not only in shape, but in the size and form of their leaves, which, also, are so many characteristics, to which must be added sub-varieties with varied col ored skins, necks, etc. At the present time those who have centred their efforts on one variety, like M. Legras, have created a type that would be recognized anywhere; also the German, Klein - W'anzleben, which has undergone certain changes, but still retains its original characteristics. The type was created by the old firm Rabbethge and Giesecke in 1859. Vilmo rin, the well-known French seed producer, created the White Silesian and the Ameliorated, as well as the green and rose neck varieties. The Desprez beets are known as white or rose, with hard skins, white or rose intermediate skins, and the green neck, soft skins, with several early maturing varieties; simon-legrand has the white rose, white conical neck, all of which are the so - called ameliorated types of the German seed grow ers. The most important, besides the ones mentioned in the foregoing. Are the Knauer. Old Imperial, Rose and White Ameliorated Imperial and Electoral. The Dippe Brothers have produced a type based upon the klein-wanzleben, Imperial Ameliorated, and the Most Rich. The Austrian beet of Jules - Robert is much liked: the varieties are few.
