RADISH 
Culture—Radishes do best in a 
light sandy _ soil. For a_ successive 
supply sow from the middle of March 
until September, at intervals of two 
or three weeks. Sow in a hotbed for 
a an early supply. 
“7 One oz. to 100 feet of drill; 8 to 10 
Ibs. per acre in drills. 
“SAXA”—A fiery scarlet, perfectly 
globular in shape, the leaves 
small and the root the thinnest 
possible tail. In less than three 
weeks from the day of sowing is ready 
ae for the table. The flesh is firm, crisp 
and juicy, remaining so for a long time without becoming 
spongy. It is recommended equally for open ground culture 
j and for forcing, for which it was particularly developed 
and is especially adapted. In trials during the past season, 
with all other standard sorts Saxa proved to be at least 
three days earlier than the earliest. Pkt. 10c; oz. 20c; % Ib. 
60c; 1 1b. $2.00. 
Crimson Giant—This Giant Radish develops bulbs twice the size of any of the exist- 
ing round red and forcing sorts. The roots are very attractive, of a bright crimson 
color, flesh white, crisp, firm and tender. First-class for forcing or outdoor culture.
