Three Weeks I'orcing Radishes. 



CRISP TENDER RADISHES 



Early 



Radishes are easy to grow in any soil, 

 but make the smoothest and best quality 

 roots in a well prepared, fairly rich loam. 

 The early varieties, which follow, do best in 

 cool weather and should be sown as early 

 in the Spring as the ground is fit, with 

 frequent succession plantings up to the 

 middle of May. They may also be sown m 

 late August for Fall use. 



Scatter the seed thinly in shallow drills 

 12 to 15 inches apart, and if necessary thin 

 out to 2 inches apart. For hot weather and 

 Winter u.se, grow the Summer and Winter 

 Radishes, which see. 



One otmce of seed will sow 100 feet of drill.
