|hl! Long BIac\ jSpanijsh ^adigh. 



This is the best of the black Radishes. A refer- 

 ence to the illustration will show bow greatly the 

 shape has been improved. The color is const ant and 

 free from light markings. The flesh is mild, and 

 never pithy. It should be thinned to at least six 

 inches apart in the rows, as the tops are large Our 

 stock has been specially selected for keeping for 

 winter market. (Ste cut). lOc. oz., 20c. 1 lb.,

Have had for the last 

 two weeks some very 

 fine Rose Turnip Radish 

 superior to the White 

 T'P- Butchard Bros • 



San Cregario Cal. 



Early Scarlet QIdDb Raflisli 



BRILLIANT COLOR, ATTRAC- 

 TIVE FORM, SMALL TOPS. 

 This is the most popular forcing Radish 

 on the market to-day. It is grown very 

 largely in the Eastern States to supply the 

 enormous demand in Mew York, Boston 

 and other eastern markets, where its bril- 

 liant color and attractive shape have se- 

 cured tor it a prominent place It matures 

 in 21 days and has a very small top. No 

 variety looks better in the bunch, none 

 holds the color longer, or remains firmer 

 after pulling. Our stock is not equalled 

 by any to-day, and is selected specially for 

 the most critical trade, some growers buy- 

 ing as much as 500 lb. annually for forcing 

 purposes. 10c. oz., 80c. i lb., 60c 

 lb., lOO lbs., $55. OO, 10 lbs. atlOO 

 lb rates. 



NON PLUS ULTRA PADISH. 



This is the best of the small, round red 

 forcing varieties. It is about same size as 

 Red Forcing, and tops are very small. It 

 Is very finely bred throughout, the flesh is 

 exceedingly tender, cri«.p, and of mild fla- 

 vor. 1 he outer color (a very vivid led) is 

 quite attractive and presents a fine appear- 

 ance when bunched. It can be easily mar- 

 keted in twentv-one days from sowing.

Good Turnips for 



the Trucker 



EARLY WHITE MILAN TURNIP. 



As early as the Early Purple Top Milan, and possesses all of its 

 good qualities. The entire bulb, inside and out. is clear ivory white 

 in color; the outer surface is perfectly smooth. It grows so quickly 

 that even the outer surface of the bulb is quite tender. Its table 

 qualities are unequalled, being of most delicate flavor and tempting 

 appearance. It will undoubtedly find a welcome in our markets, as, 

 In addition to the heavy crop assured by its adaptability for close 

 planting, it will be found to be fit for use at least a week earlier than 

 any other white variely in cultivation. lOc. oz., 25c. Jib., 



76C RED-TOP STRAP LEAF TURNIP. 



Too well known to need description. Our stock is well selected 

 for perfectly shaped roots, good color, and small tops. A very 

 reliable sort for early market. lOc. oz., 15c. j lb.. 30c. lb. 



EARLY MICHIGAN TOMATO. 



An extremely smooth and perfectly shaped Tomato, very early, 

 ripening its first fruit almost as early as any sort. Vines large with 

 dark green leaves, vigorous and productive. One of the heaviest 

 croppers; fruit medium size to large and unlike most varieties, 

 grows larger as the season advances; perfectly smooth, solid, but 

 without any core ; deep, rich red color and of excellent flavor. 5c. 

 pkt , 20c bz , 55c. i lb . $1 75 lb. 



TABLE QUEEN TOMATO. 

 A large purplish crimson variety, not so smooth as Beauty, but in 

 some sections will outyield that varietv. It has a very large vigor 

 ous pltnt and will, therefore, be worthy of a trial in sections infected 

 with blight. (See cut.) 5c pkt., 20c oz., 60c. ilb.. |2 00 lb. 



HENDERSON S ROSE TUfcNIP RADISH. 



HENDERSON'S ROSE TURNIP RADISH. 

 Beautiful rose color, very early, maturing in 23 days, re- 

 markably attractive and of delicious flavor. (See cm). 10c. 

 oz , 20c. ilb , 60c lb. 



Last Spring I planted your Rose Turnip Radish seed in cold frames 

 together with three other standard kinds procured from as many different seed 

 Turnip produced the largest and soundest radishes of them 

 m being pithy while all the rest were more or less so. Hope 

 this year. A. Grhve, 



Davenport, Iowa. 



NEW RADISH, TRIUMPH. 



Matures in about 21 days from 

 sowing. The root is globe-shaped and 

 the tops are so dwarf that it can be sown 

 verv closely, making it invaluable for 

 cultivation under glass. The ground 

 color is pure white, striped and splashed 

 horizontally with bright scarlet. To the 

 market gardener it will certainly prove 

 useful on account of its attractive appear- 

 ance when bunched. Nearly all come 

 true to color, but under certain conditions 

 a small percentage is apt to come in solid 

 color. 10c. pkt., 25c. oz , 70c i lb., 

 $2 50 lb. 



WHITE-TIPFED EARLY SCAR- 

 LET TTJKNIP RADISH. The favor- 

 ite variety for outdoor cultivation. Me- 

 dium size, uniform shape, color bright 

 scarlet, sharply contrasting with "White 

 Tip, which makes it most attractive. It 

 grows quickly, maturing iu 25 days. 

 10c. oz., 15c i lb., 45c. lb., (100 lbs. 

 £40.00. 10 lbs. at 100 lb. rates.) 



EARLY ROUND DARK RED RAD- 

 ISH. Medium in size, rich dark red in 

 color, grows very smooth and clean. There 

 is no early variety that remains fit for use 

 for so long a time. 10c. oz , 16c. ±
