Radish 



Light rich ground is best for radishes. Sow in shal- 

 low drills 12 inches apart every week or ten days 

 for a succession. During the hot summer months the 

 summer or winter sorts should be sown, as they do 

 not become tough and stringy. 1 oz. to 100 feet of 

 drill; 8 to 10 lbs. to the acre.
