You should plant only first-class Radish seed grown from selected and 

 transplanted roots ; this reasonably adds greatly to the cost of production, 

 the crop, however, grown from seed procured by this method will pay for 

 itself many times over again, and is acKnowledg'ed by all of our customers. 



1 oz. for 100 feet of drill ; 9 lbs. to an acre. 



For early use sow in the spring- as soon as the ground can be worked, in drills, 

 6 to 10 inches apart, covering seed half an inch deep ; thin plants an inch apart in 

 the row. As the roots are succulent and more tender when grown quickly, a rich, 

 light seffl should be preferred, and frequent watering in dry weather will be found 

 tlenoCcial. For a succession, sow every two weeks.
