-3 Maule's Just So Radish 



Mr. W. T. Woerner, of New Brunswick, N. J., writes: "Maule's Just So 

 is tlie best all around radish ever offered the American public. I have 

 tested nearly every variety sent out, and have originated many varie- 

 ites myself, but nothing has ever come to my notice that will equal 

 Just So. They mature very early. I was able to pull fine radishes in 20 

 days from sowing the seed; radishes that would measure over one inch 

 in diameter, fine, crisp, white and smooth. 1 never saw such a sight; 

 they were like peas in a pod, all alike; one crowding the other out of 

 the ground. Every seed produced a fine radish, and this on poor, 

 gravelly soil which has had no manure applied in years. For forcing 

 in hot or cold beds they have no equal. 1 have tested them in every 

 way, and am satisfied." PUt., lOc; oz,, 15c.; % lb., 40c.; lb., $1.35.

Iviglitning Scarlet Xurnip 

 Radish 



Truly a little gem for bunching, and one of the most profitable for 

 forcing. A good companion to Scarlet Turnip White Tipped. Nothing 

 can surpass its crisp and nutty flavor. Fit to pull in from 16 to 21 days 

 from sowing, and absolutely one of the best of all turnip-shaped radishes, 

 sure to take a leading place in all under glass operations, as well as open 

 air culture. Pkt., 5 cts.; oi.., 10 cts.; I4 lb., 30 cts.; lb., Sl.OO.

 stripes of bright scai let on a white 

 skin. The tops aie so small tliat 

 close planting ma\ be practiced

 ^ lb., 40 cts.; lb., $1.35. 



White Delicious 



In describing this half long radish I cannot do better than 

 say that it Is as good as Red Delicious described above, 

 but is white instead of red in color. The only thing I have 

 to add is that In crisp, sharp, brittle quality it has no superior, 

 while the roots are always smooth and regular in shape and 

 solid all the way through; never hollow until they are abso- 

 lutely unfit for use. Skin is a pure white. A rapid grower. 

 Pachet, 10 cts.; onnce, 15 cts.; 1^ lb., 40 cts.; lb., $1.25. 



Oak Leaved Rose Salmon 



This distinct, turnip-shaped radish, has a small oak 

 leaved top, is of quick growth, maturing very early, and is 

 deserving of general cultivation. It is of rich color; flesh 

 white, crisp and tender, and of mild flavor. For forcing or out- 

 door planting. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 10c. : \'^ lb., 25c.; lb., 80c.

585 Maule's Earliest White 



A splendid, olive shaped radish, pure white in 

 color, which I secured in France from a promi- 

 nent grower, and is now widely popular here. 

 It is distinctly earlier than any other radish 

 grown, of any color, as will be understood when 

 I 'ay that good sized radishes may be pulled in 

 12 to 15 days from the sowing of the seed. It has 

 a small top, is solid and crisp, of good flavor, 

 and flrst-class in every respect. Packet, 10 cts.j 

 onnce, 15 cts.; \4 lb., 40 cts.; lb., $1.25.
