RADISH. — Continued . 



RED FORCING TURNIP. This 

 variety has a peculiar value to 

 market gardeners, in the fact 

 that the tops are exceedingly 

 small and short, rendering it 

 most useful for forcing either in 

 the greenhouse or in frames. The 

 tops are smaller than we have 

 ever met with in any variety of 

 radish, in all other respects, how- 

 ever, it is identical with our 

 Early Round Dark Red, which 

 has proved so valuable for forc- 

 ing. (See cut.) 10c. oz., 20c. \ 

 lb., 55c. lb. 



RAPID FORCING. 

 Our illustration gives a 

 good idea of this fine va- 

 riety. It resembles the 

 White Tipped, Scarlet 

 Turnip variety, but is 

 much earlier, coming to 

 maturity in 22 days from 

 time of sowing, and hav- 

 ing very small tops, will 

 prove to be the radish for 

 forcing purposes. (See cut)

 The Best Varieties for Fall Sowing 

 HENDERSON'S NOR- 

 FOLK SAVOY LEAVED. 

 We wish to especially 

 draw the attention of our 

 patrons to our superior 

 strain of Savoy Spinach. 

 It is longer standing than 

 the ordinary strains, is 

 darker in color and is al- 

 most entirely free from 

 the worthless wildsmooth 

 growing mixture so com- 

 mon in this variety. We 

 do not hesitate to say 

 that our strain is unex- 

 celled when viewed from 

 the market gardener's 

 standpoint. (See cut.) 

 25 lbs. at 100 lb. rates. 

 16 c. lb., 100 lbs. $14.00. 

 HENDERSON'S THICK- 

 LEAVED. One of the 

 best market sorts. It 

 produces a large, thick, strong, 

 green leaf somewhat crumpled, 

 and possesses the valuable qual- 

 ity of standing a long time be- 

 fore running to seed. 25 lbs. 

 at 100 lb. rates. 16c. lb., 100 

 lbs. $14.00
