Long- Brig-litest Scarlet 



LONG BRIGHTEST SCARLET. This variety, 

 by some called Cardinal Radish, is one of 

 the handsomest Long Radishes grown.. In 

 shape it is intermediate between the long 

 and half-long sorts. It is early, being fit 

 for use in 25 days after sowing. In bright- 

 ness of color it is quite unique, being the 

 brightest fiery scarlet we have ever seen 

 in any radish; flesh crisp, brittle, and of 

 a delightful pungent quality. A fine va- 

 riety to sell well in the markets. Per pkt. 

 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., M lb. 15 cts., lb. 50 cts.

 ing its superior quality. It will prove a 

 profitable market variety. Per pkt. 5 cts.,

The Triumph 



THE TRIUMPH. This is a beautiful and 

 odd radish. The ground color is, pure white, 

 striped with bright scarlet, when mixed in 

 the bunch with scarlet radishes makes a 

 pleasing contrast. It is a splendid forc- 

 ing- radish, with short top, small leaves, 

 and matures quickly. The flesh is very 

 crisp and solid and of mild flavor. It can 

 also be grown in the open ground as well. 

 It is a most atractive ornament for the 

 table, and market gardeners will find ready 

 sale for it. Per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., % 

 lb. 20 cts., lb. 60 cts. 



IMPROVED CHARTIER, or SHEPHERD. 



This Radish possessing so many fine quali- 

 ties, is a great favorite. It is an early sum- 

 mer variety; in color a deep pink. In 

 quality unsurpassed, being not strong, but 

 crisp and tender. Its great value lies in 

 its being in fine market condition when 

 quite small and continuing so until grown 

 to large size, even when grown in hot 

 weather without becoming tough and pithy.

 scarlet color; flesh pure white and of a
