Light, sandy soil, rich in organic matter is essential 

 to produce crisp and tender radishes. For an early crop 

 sow the seed as soon as the ground can be worked, in 

 drills 6 to 10 inches apart, covering the seed half an 

 inch deep. When the plants are well started, thin out to 

 one inch apart in the drills. Frequent watering in dry 

 weather is very beneficial as high quality is largely de- 

 pendent upon rapid growth. For a continuous supply, 

 successive plantings should be made at intervals of 10 

 days to two weeks, selecting varieties best suited for the 

 season. 



Extra Early Scarlet Globe No. 8 



(23 days) 

 From Specially Selected Transplanted Boots 



A reselected strain so uniform in its maturity 

 that each sowing can be entirely gathered and 

 bunched at one pulling, with practically no waste. 

 This means more bunches per row, more time saved 

 in bunching, and the ground ready for the next 

 crop a week earlier. This equalized maturity also 

 permits sowing this crop between rows of beans, 

 corn, etc., as a "catch crop." This is the market 

 gardener's favorite as a forcing Radish, very early; 

 mild and crisp, juicy and tender; ample top, will 

 stand heat without becoming pithy. One of the 

 best selling and most attractive Radishes on ac- 

 count of its bright scarlet color and handsome 

 shape. Our stock of this is the very best, selected 

 with special care as to size, shape, color and earli- 

 ness. Market gardeners find it a money maker, as 

 It is just right in every respect. 



/"•__. —1 (24 days) Distinctly a round or ball shaped 

 ^'^ ** sort of longkeeping quality. Has outstanding 

 brilliant crimson color, with extra good tops for bunch- 

 ing. An All-American winner. 



Sparkler (Round White Tipped) 



(25 days) One of the most attractive for early planting 

 outdoors. Color very deep scarlet with 1/3 white at the 

 tip; flesh white and of the best quality. 



(27 days) Planted in 

 spring the young Radishes 

 are ready for use in 25 to 27 days from sowing and their 

 long, slender form and pure paper-white skin are most 

 attractive when bunched for market. Flesh: clear white, 

 brittle and of a mild flavor.
