 "any of the existing round red forcing sorts. The roots are very 

 attractive, of a bright crimson color, flesh white, crisp, firm and 

 tender, with no tendency to become pithy or hollow. A first-class 

 sort for forcing or outdoor culture. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; % lb. 25c;

SUMMER RADISHES. 



All Solid — Summer Radishes have always been difficult to get perfectly 

 solid. During the hot weather they all have a tendency to become 

 more or less pithy or hollow just before reaching full size. In our 

 All Solid we have a perfect Summer Radish growing to a large size. 

 It is always solid, never becoming pithy or hollow. The flesh is 

 white, firm, crisp and tender. It is turnip-shaped, re- 

 sembling the old Gray Summer in shape and color, but 

 much superior to that variety in keeping qualities, and 

 without doubt the best sort for summer use. Pkt. 5c; 

 oz. 10c; % lb. 25c; 1 lb 



Beckert's Chartier — Color at the top bright crimson, shad- 

 ing to pink, and pure white at the top. Pkt. 5c; oz. 

 10c; % lb. 20c; 1 lb 



White Strasburg, or Hospital — A popular half-long variety 

 of fine flavor. Matures quickly and is a good keeper.
