CRIIV1S0N fllANT TURNIP ^ variety extraordinary in that, wMle 

 \/nilTIOUI^ UB^I^B lUHI^ir growing to an unusually large size, it is 

 always tender, crisp and of mild flavor. It remains in perfect condition a 

 remarkably long time, and unlike other forcing varieties, does not become 

 pithy even when twice their size in diameter. Root turnip shaped; color 

 a beautiful crimson-carmine: flesh firm, crisp and tender. While very 

 desirable as a second early forcing variety, we specially recommend it 

 for outdoor planting. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 10c; 2 Oz. 15c; ^ Lb. 25c; Lb. 75c. 



"TJie above varieties of radish are especially developed and selected for 

 forcing. They should be grown quickly and used when small and 

 tender, as they become pithy and tasteless when overgrown. Most of 

 them are at their best when less than an inch in diameter.
