MAY'S Scarlet Globe 
A SMALL TOPPED Variety and one that will resist 
the heat to an astonishing degree without 
becoming pithy. It is very early and after repeated 
trials has proved one of the most satisfactory of 
the round sorts. It is especially adapted to green- 
house and hotbed culture, but can be grown out 
of doors excellentlj'. In shape it is a little longer 
than round and its color is brilliant scarlet, which 
it holds long after pulling. It is as early as l^on 
Plus Ultra, but much larger when matured.

MAY'S LONG 
WHITE 
ICICLE 
THIS IS AN im- 
provement on 
the White Strashur« 
than which it is 
earlier, more even- 
ly shaped and has 
a smaller top. It 
is of the long white 
variety and the 
radishes, even dur- 
ing the early period 
of growth, are solid 
and crisp. The fla- 
vor is mild and 
delicate. In every 
way it is a most 
desirable garden radish, its small tops admitting of 
close planting and its extreme earlincss makes it one 
of the first in the spring. Of great value to market 
fardeners and one which we highly recommend, 
acket lOc, ounce 15c., J^-poimd 30c., pound $1.00. 
MAY'S SAKURAJIMA 
THIS IS A NOVELTY which zve havc imported direct 
from Japan and one which promises to become 
very popular. It grows to the size of a ball when 
matured and instead of being served as arc the small 
radishes, may be sliced or served in salad. It is pure 
white, round, with very firm, finely grained flesh and 
of a most delicate peculiar flavor wholly unique. 
It is a most interesting specimen, suggesting as it 
does, the quaint and odd character of Japanese 
vegetation and growth. Packet 10c., ounce 25c.
