One ounce of seed will plant 100 feet of drill; 8 to 10 pounds for an acre. 



CULTURE —All varieties tlirive best in light sandy loam. For early use sow in the hot-bed in February, 

 giving plenty of ventilation, or outside in the garden, in drills, as soon as the soil is warm and dry, covering 

 the seed about half an inch deep. Sow every two weeks, from March until September, for a succession of 

 crisp radishes for continued use. Radishes must grow rapidly to be crisp, mild-flavored and tender. I ofEer 



NUMBER TWO SCARLET GLOBE SHAPED. 



The roots of this variety are slightly olive 

 shaped, a rich, bright scarlet in color; flesh 

 white and tender, fit to pull as early as any radish 

 that grows. I especially recommend this to gard- 

 eners whose markets demand a large, first early 

 forcing radish. Pkt, 5c. ; oz., loc. ; 2 ozs., 15c. ; ^

 planting; quality excellent. Pkt., 5c.; oz., loc;

WHITE STRASBURG SUMMER.— This is 



proving one of the best and most popular sum- 

 mer Radishes grown. Both the skin and flesh 

 are pure w^hite and almost transparent, and of 

 delightful pungent taste. It can be pulled five 

 weeks from time of sowing, or it will continue 

 to grow without losing its flavor, and will re- 

 main tender longer than any other sort. Pkt.,

earliest Radishes grown, and one of the best

CRIMSON GIANT.— A most valuable Rad- 

 ish, of European nitrod'uction, which is creat- 

 ing quite a furor wherever grown, and is des- 

 tined to take the lead in turnip Radishes. It 

 grows quickly, and even when it attains a large 

 size it remains absolutely tender and of per- 

 fect flavor to the very last. It is of a beautiful 

 deep crimson color, and in crispness and flavor it 

 is unsurpassed. Pkts., 5 and loc. ; oz., 15c. ; yi
