HE RADISH is the 
easiest of culture 
of all vegetables as 
it w'ill grow in almost 
any soil and under all con- 
ditions. In a warm fibrous 
loam, especially if sandy, 
radishes will make a crop 
in 3 to 6 weeks from the 
'ime of sowing. The soil 
should be well prepared, 
Certilizers used freely and 
the seed sown as early 
as possible in the spring 
in rows a foot apart, 
just enough being used 
so that they will not 
require thinning. I'or 
very early radishes the 
seed may be sown in hot 
beds between rows of 
lettuce or outdoors be- 
tween beets, carrots, etc. 
RcEow at intervals of 3 
weeks to insure a continu- 
ous crop. For winter rad- 
ishes sow in July or August. 
They grow better in the coo! 
autumn weather, but should be 
taken up before freezing and stored 
in sand in the cellar, when they will 
keep crisp and tender all winter. One 
ounce of seed will sow 100 feet of drill.
