the best of the winter sorts. It is of Chinese origin, but is now thoroughly 
Americanized. Continued selection has made it perfect in shape, size, 
quality and flavor. It resembles California Maminoth Winter, but is 
superior to that or any other variety with which I am acquanted, as it lacks 
no qualities desirable in a winter radish. The illustration shows its general 
form. It will grow to a very large size, 8 to 15 inches in length and even 
larger, according to fertility of soil. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 10c.; 14 1b., 25¢.; 1b., 75c.

HORSE-RADISH SETS. 
Horse-radish is always in demand in winter and spring. The culture 
is by sets or root cuttings, as it seldom seeds. These sets are planted 
in rows or furrows 2 to 8 feet apart and 15 to 18 inches apart in the rows. 
The set should be placed in a perpendicular position, with crown 3 to 6 
inches below surface. Horse-radish delights in a deep, rich soil and 
requires but little cultural attention. It makes large top growth, giving 
weeds small chance. Near to markets the horse-radish is a most im- 
portant crop. Price of sets, 25 cents per dozen; 90 cents per 100, by mail, 
postpaid. By express or freight, 60 cents per 100; $4.00 per 1,000.
