A WORLD BEATER AMONG RADISHES 

 The Best Long Early Radish 



The extraordinary earliness is remarl<able in 

 view of the fact that it grows to such a fine size. 

 The shape is regular, smooth and nearly conical, 

 being intermediale between the half long and 

 extra long sorts. In brightness of color it is 

 quite unique, being the handsomest scarlet I 

 have yet seen in a Radish, and tipped at the end 

 of the roots with just enough white to present 

 an ideal appearance. Crisp, tender and juicy.
