Culture.— Sow as soon as the ground is dry in the spring, in light, rich soil, in rows 8 to 12 inches apart, 

 every week or ten days for a succession, up to the middle of June, after which they are but little used, unless a 

 cool northern spot can be had, where the ground is shaded during part of the day. Sow also in early fall for 

 late crops and winter use. Sow 8 to 10 pounds to the acre. Radishes should be eaten when quite small ; it is a 

 mistake to let them grow too long and too large. This applies particularly to the French Breakfast.
