Maliner Kren 



A New Horse Radish 

 from Bohemia 



This new sort was brought 

 from Bohemia by Mr. Eftir^ 

 child. Agricultural Explorer 

 for— the office of Plant Intro- 

 duction of the United States 

 Department of Agriculture. 



The roots grow to a very 

 large size, perfectly white, and 

 suited to almost any soil. 

 Roots set in April will yield a 

 large crop in October. Grows much more rapidly than 

 the old variety, and its flavor is the very best; especially is the 

 difference noticeable in early fall, when the old variety 

 would be too green for use. It is a profitable crop for the 

 farmer, and should be planted in every home garden, as it 

 can be grown as easily as potatoes or corn, simply by sticking 

 down the cuttings in rows, cultivating same as cabbage and 

 plow out in the fall or spring, same as potatoes, parsnips or 

 carrots. Small roots, ready for planting: 25c. per dozen, 

 or $1.50 per 100, by mail, postpaid. By express or freight, 

 not prepaid: Roots of larger size, $1.00 per 100; $7.00 per 1,000.
