ICICLE 
SPARKLER 
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 excellently. 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 Non 
Plus Ultra, but much larger when matured.

HIS IS AN im- 
_ provement on 
the IVhite Strasbur^ 
than which it is 
earlier, more even- 
ly shaped and has 
a smaller top. It 
is of the long while 
variety and the 
radishes, even dur- 
ing the early period 
of growth, are solid 
and crisp. The fla- 
vor is mild and dchcate. In every way it is a most 
desirable garden radish, its small tops admitting of 
close planting and its extreme earliness makes it one 
of the first in the spring. Of great value to market 
gardeners and one which we highly recommend.

matured and instead of being served as are the small 
radishes, may be sliced or served in salad. It is pure 
white, round, with very firm, finely grained flesh and
