Hastin&^s’ Radish Seed. 
Culture— For best results, radishes require a rich, loose, 
moist soil, so that they can be grown quickly. The crisp, 
tender flesh of early radishes depends almost entiiely on 
I rapid growth. Successive plantings should be made every 
I 10 days or 2 weeks to keep up a continuous supply of crisp 
I and tender radishes. For early use, plant the round turnip or 
button and the olive-shaped radishes as early as ground can 
! be worked in the spring. Plantings of these early round 
i sorts may be continued for 6 weeks. After that, plant the 
' half long varieties, as they root much deeper and resist heat 
I and drought. The winter radishes ( Spanish and China Rose) 
are for August and September plantings. All radishes should 
be sown thinly, in drills, 1 foot apart, covered inch, and 
[! kept clean from weeds and grass.
