 Forcing is the earliest turnip-shaped scarlet variety in 

 existence, its crisp, bright flavor, as well as its remarkable quick growth, maturing in eighteen to 

 twenty-five days from the sowing of the seed, leaving nothing more to be desired. Color of skin rich 

 scarlet, while the flesh is of pureVhite, of mild flavor; always crisp and lender. I control the entire 

 stock of Buckbee's Rapid Forcing Radish. Choicest Stock Seed. Pkt. 3c, oz.Sc, ^.^ lb.2oc, 3.< lb. 40c, lb. 75c.

?fyCKBEEs CRYSTAL 



NEW "TRILMPH" RADISH. 



This novelty is 

 both unique and use- 

 ful. It is very early, NEW 

 being a '-Twenty 

 Day'" Radish, of 

 globular form and 

 its tops are very 

 short, which makes 

 it valuable for culti- 

 vation under glass. 

 The flesh is very 

 crisp and solid and 

 of mild flavor. Its 

 most distinctive fea- 

 ture, however, is 

 the unique color of 

 the skin. The ground 

 color is pure white, 

 striped horizontally 

 with bright scarlet, 

 it is a most attractive ornament for the table and 

 market gardeners -will find ready sale for it. _ Some 

 of the roots may come in solid color, the strain not 

 being quite "fixed'" yet. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, >4 lb. 50c.

DRESBES BADISH. 



NEW WHITE DRESDEN— 1— A 



grand new variety from 

 Germany. Tried ex- 



tensively at our Rock- 

 ford Seed Farms, and throughout the country it has given excellent satisfaction. When planted un- 

 der ordinary conditions ihe^first of May it was ready for the table the first of June. The tops are 

 scant and admit of the closest planting. As will be seen by the illustration the radishes are per- 

 fectly round and smooth, while they have an attractive white skin. The flesh isx;risp, white, juicy 

 and of the finest flavor. Market gardeners can either grow this new radish in the garden or force 



it, and depend upon an early, perfect uni- 

 form crop. I control the entire seed supply

BUCKBEE S ROCKFORD MARKET— A 

 world beater among radishes. Now 

 offered for the first time. For years 

 we have given much attention to this 

 new radish, and after the repeated 

 trials on our Rockford Seed 

 Farm, as well as in various sec- 

 tions of this country and abroad, 

 it has given unbounded satisfac- 

 tion. The extraordinary earli- 

 ness is remarkable in the fact of 

 it s growing to such a fine size. 

 The shape is regular, smooth and 

 nearly conical, being intermed- 

 iate between the half long and 



extra long sorts. In brightness 



of color it is quite unique, being the handsomest ^carlet we have yet seen in a radish, 

 and tipped at the ends of the roots with just enough white to present an ideal appearance,

NEW "LEAFLESS ' RADISH. 



The Extra Early 

 Forcing Radish, 

 lately introduced 

 are remarkable for 

 the small size of 

 their leaves; they 

 grow so quickly that 

 the roots are prac- 

 tically in advance 

 of the leaves. This 

 character is still 

 more noticeable in 

 this new variety, 

 which, for that rea- 

 son, is callrd Leaf- 

 less. In fact, t'ne 

 see d-c o t y 1 edo n s, 

 which assume a 

 great development 

 from the start, are the only green parts to be seen on 

 the plants until the root is almost large enough for 

 pulling. At that time only three or four very short 

 leaves are produced, which are quite distinct, beins 

 rough and deeply crumpled. The illustration shows 

 the remarkable appearance of this handsome little 

 Radish. The skin is of a beautiful bright red. and 

 the crisp, tender flesh of the most excellent quality.
