ENDERSOIS'S BREAKFAST RADISHES. 



...The Three " Rockets" 



THE illustration gives an excellent idea of these splendid 

 new Radishes. A dish composed of these three Rocket 

 Radishes, prepared for the table, presents a most at- 

 tractive appearance, and we ad-vise every lover of this vegetable 

 to grow some of each. In addition to their bright appearance, 

 it is necessary to state that they are absolutely the earliest 

 varieties grown; they mature at exactly the same time, and 

 grow so quickly that they never take on that strong, rank 

 flavor which we associate with the later varieties. 

 RED ROCKET. This variety has a very small top, which 

 permits close planting — a great advantage when grown 

 under glass — the bulb is smooth, deep scarlet in color, with 

 a very small root. The flesh is crisp, and of good flavor. 

 (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 35c. -'- lb., $1.00 lb. 

 WHITE ROCKET. A trifle heavier than Red Rocket. It has 

 an equally small top; the bulb is pure white, while the color 

 of the flesh is distinct, being of a clear waxy-white. (See cut.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 35c. J lb., $1.00 lb. 

 WHITE TIPPED ROCKET. This is the ideal first early Rad- 

 ish. For many years the old French Breakfast has held a 

 foremost place among all the varieties offered. We have now 

 to offer a sort that possesses all of its merits, and, in addi- 

 tion, extreme earliness. The color is deep rose, tipped white 

 at the base. The flavor is deliciouslv mild. (See cut.) Price, 

 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 35c. \ lb., $1.00 lb.

EARLY ROUND DARK RED. The finest type of the Early 

 Scarlet turnip-shaped class, producing handsome, ball- 

 shaped Radishes of medium size, ready for use in from 15 to 



20 days from sowing; surface smooth and of rich dark red; 

 flesh white as snow, crisp and of mild flavor. It remains fit

 15c. oz., 25c. j lb., 65c. lb. 



"Your EarJu Round Rrif Radish is (he best of the turnip Radishes we have ever 

 grown. They were several days ahead of the cracked-up Philadelphia Radishes; 

 besides, yours were large, sound and free from pithiness." 



A lilt AM HOUSER, Rahway, N. J. 



WHITE-TIPPED EARLY SCARLET TURNIP. A superior 

 strain of this variety, so popular both for outdoor culture and 

 growing in frames; of medium size; shape very uniform and 

 round; color bright scarlet, with a distinct white tip, con- 

 trasting vividly and making it very attractive; mild, crisp, 

 white flesh; matures in 25 days. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 

 15c. oz., 25c. 1 lb., 65c. lb. 



SPECKLED BEAUTY, or TRIUMPH. (A superior selection.) 

 An early, round Radish, attractively colored white splashed 

 with scarlet; globe-shaped; very early; maturing in about 



21 davs; crisp and tender; very small tops. (See cut.) Price, 

 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 40c. j lb.', $1.25 lb. 



EARLY CRIMSON GIANT. A new Early Turnip Radish, 

 double the size of any of the early turnip-shaped type. 

 This variety develops to 6 and often 7 inches in circumfer- 

 ence, weighing up to one ounce per bulb, or about four times 

 the weight of similar sorts; but notwithstanding its immense 

 size, does not get hollow or pithy, the flesh remaining spark- 

 lingiy white, solid, crisp and juicy, and of the mildest flavor. 

 The shape of the bulbs varies between round and almost oval, 

 but the bright, deep crimson color of the skin remains quite 

 constant. Excellent both for forcing and open-ground cul- 

 ture. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 50c. \ lb., $1.50 lb. 



"The Crimson Giant Radish and purchased from you last sprint) produced 

 the finest Radishes I ever ale, without any exception." 



J. CALVIN MEYER, Bellefonte, Pa.
