For best results radishes require a rich, loose, moist 
wUllur V goil, so they can be grown quickly. The crisp, tender 
flesh of early radishes depends almost entirely on rapid growth. Suc- 
cessive plantings should be made every 10 days or two weeks to keep 
up a continuous supply of crisp and tender radishes. For early use 
plant the round or button radishes and olive shaped. For later use 
plant the long and half-long varieties, as they root much deeper and 
better resist heat and drought. What are known as winter radishes 
should be sown in August and September. All radishes should be 
sown thinly in drills one foot apart, seed covered inch and kept 
clear of grass and weeds. Sow one ounce of seed to 100 feet of row; 
10 to 12 pounds per acre. Our radish seed is of the very best, grown 
frorh carefully selected and transplanted roots. Very easy to grow.
