Radish— Rett 



Early Bird Pea 



One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill. Nine pounds will sow 

 an acre. 



CULTURE. — Select light, sandy soil, spade deeply and manure 

 well. For early crop, sow in hotbeds in February or March ; for 

 main crop, sow at intervals from early spring until last of Sep- 

 tember in deep, rich soil. Broadcast sowing is allowable, but 

 drilling is more professional; however, radishes do well by either 

 method. Thin when they crowd, or the crop will be imperfect.
