f’nlfiiT'a results radishes require a rich, loose, 
VJlillUre moist soil, so that they can be grown quickly. 
The crisp, tender flesh of early radishes depends almost en¬ 
tirely on rapid growth. Successive plantings should be made 
every 10 days or two weeks to keep up a continuous supply of 
crisp and tender radl.shes. For early use plant the round or 
button radishes and olive shaped as early as ground can be 
worked in Spring. Plantings of these e.xtra early sorts may be 
continued for six weeks. Alter that use the long and half-long 
varieties, as they mot much deeper and resist heat and drouth 
better, \vhat are known us winter radishes should be sown in 
.august and September. All radishes should be sown thinly in 
drills one foot apart, covered % inch and kept clear of grass 
and weeds. Our radish seed is of the best, all being grown 
from carefully selected and transplanted roots. 
Hastings’ Itarly L,ouji Scarlet 
This is the most popular of all radishes in the South for the 
general g-arden use and market. Our illustration shows the 
lemarkable regularity and line shape of our strain of this va¬ 
riety. It’s a. favorite everywhere, no vegetable garden being 
complete without it. Tops rather small, roots long and taper 
ing to a decided point; color an intense bright scarlet. Flesh 
is very crisp and tender and when grown rapidly, as all rad 
ishes should be. it is free from all pungent taste. Packet. .5c; 
ounce, 10c; pound, 20c; pound, 55c; postpaid. 
Long ^V’lille Vienna or Lady Finger 
One of the finest long white radishes in cultivation. It is al¬ 
most identical w'ith Long Scarlet, except in color. Beautiful 
shape; skin and flesh pure white, crisp, tender and of a quick 
growth. Pkt., 5c; ounce, lOo; % pound, 20c; pound, 60c. 
Lonj* White Icicle Hadish 
Excellent and profitable; a new and distinct sort; Ready for 
use as soon as Hastings’ Early Long Scarlet, but has fewer 
leaves. Admirable alike for open air and under glass. The 
Icicle radish is perfectly white in color, and long, slender and 
tapering in shape. It quickly grows to market size, is crisp 
and brittle, and of mild, sweet flavor. It remains tender dur¬ 
ing the entire growing period, and is quite as good when an 
inch in diameter as when only half an inch. A fine variety for 
both market and home gardeners who w’ant an early, long, 
white radish. Packet, 5c; ounce, 10c; Yi pound, 20c; po<ind 
60c. 10 pounds, not prepaid, §4.00. 
Chartier or Improved Sheppard 
Grow’S to a large size, but not very uniform in shape. Red at 
the top, pink in the middle, white at the tips; handsome ap¬ 
pearance when pulled at the right time. It is especially fine 
flavored when grown quickly in the South. Packet, 6 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents; Y pound, 2o cents; pound, 60 cents. 
Wood’s Early Frame 
Similar to the Long Scarlet, but earlier. Shorter and broader 
more brilliant color and better for forcing and market. Pkt. 
5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; Y pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents. 
White Strashurg 
Oblong, tapering shape; skin and flesh are pure white, firm 
brittle and tender, retaining its crispness even when the roots 
are old and large. The best for summer use. An excellent 
family or market variety. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; Y 20c; lb. 55c. 
Hastings’ Glass Radish 
After we introduced this radish several years ago it was 
named “Cincinnati Market Radl.sh’’ 
by a Northern seed house and is gen¬ 
erally catalogued by Northern houses 
under that name. We consider it one 
of the finest of the long red or pink 
radishes. It is of bright pink color 
with white tips; very regular and 
uniform in size and shape. Flesh 
transparent, always crisp and brittle, 
with mild flavor even when grown to 
large size. Desirable for both market 
or home use. Pkt. 5 cts.; ounce, 10c; 
Y pound, 20 cts.; pound, 60 cts.; post¬ 
paid. 10 lbs., not prepaid, §4.00.
