in rather the largest quantity, as from its shape, (when 

 tied up in flat bunches), it is best suited to ship. In rich 

 light soils, its average length is about 9 inches. 



Scarlet Turnip, Rather more delicate in flavor than 

 the above, and for this reason in more 

 demand for home consumption. By al- 

 lowing it sufficient time to grow, it at- 

 tains 3 inches in diameter, but it is al- 

 ways gathered at half 

 this size. This, and the 

 preceding, are the two 

 varieties that are grown 



as early market sorts.

 in color ; they are generally grown with 8HAPED RADISH . 



the above in private gardens for the sake of variety, but 

 seem not to be esteemed in mai-ket. 



Scarlet Olive-Shaped, An excellent variety; color 

 crimson, rather than scarlet ; small top ; early, tender, and 

 in every way desirable. 



LATE VARIETIES, GROWN FOR FALL 

 AND WINTER USE. 



Yellow and Gray Turnip-rooted, Varieties well 

 adapted for summer use, as they stand the heat better than 

 the early sorts ; they are mild in flavor, but are but little 

 grown, as few relish Radishes at that season.
