Radish — Cooper's Sparkler 



A new variety of an entirely distinct type. 

 In shape it is globular; the top is very short, 

 thus making it adaptable for forcing-, although 

 equally as good for outside planting. The color 

 is a rosy carmine, with a fine white tip. Its 

 rapid growth makes a fine crisp radish, as early 

 as the scarlet turnip. The Sparkler will keep 

 long in good condition, and can be grown the 

 year round if successive sowings are made.

New White Icicle Radish 



An entirely distinct variety from Germany, 

 and derives its name from the almost trans- 

 parent whiteness of the roots. It produces 

 long, slender, pure white radishes very early 

 in the season, much earlier and finer in quality 

 than any other long white variety. The shape 

 is well shown in our illustration. The leaves 

 are short and few, also making it an excellent 

 variety for forcing. It is of the best flavor, 

 very brittle and crisp. The roots grow about 

 four inches long and are ready for use in about 

 three weeks from the time of sowing. It is a 

 desirable variety for the home garden and mar- 

 ket gardeners will find it a money maker. It 

 is destined to become very popular with grow- 

 ers. Per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., % lb. 20 cts.,

Crimson Giant Radish 



This new variety suitable for forcing or early 

 planting out of doors. It grows to double the 

 size of other forcing varieties without becom- 

 ing pithy or hollow. 



The Radishes run from 6 to 7 inches in cir- 

 cumference and yet remain firm and crisp, free 

 from all signs of becoming soft. Root turnip- 

 shaped, color a beautiful crimson carmine, with 

 pure white flesh, tender and juicy. We are cer- 

 tain it will become a great favorite with all 

 who plant it.
