bright red. 
Gets to be a 
couple of inch¬ 
es in diameter 
and not pithy. 
454—CHINESE ROSE WINTER. Five or six inches 
long and a couple of inches thick and still solid and crisp. 
Plant in July at turnip planting time. 
450 — EARLIEST RED 
BALL. A crispy, sweet little 
radish. Round as a ball and 
bright red. About the pretti¬ 
est little radish you ever 
saw. They make a tooth¬ 
some bite, tender and sweet. 
The earliest radish we have. 
On good soil you can easily 
have radishes in a month 
and maybe in three weeks, 
depending on the weather.

almost round or slightly flattened. Flesh pinkish white. 
Brittle and sweet. Very early.

scarlet, slightly ob¬ 
long. Makes a 
quick growth. Pure 
white flesh. Crisp 
and sweet. One of 
our most popular 
varieties. 
4 4 2 — FRENCH 
BREAKFAST 
Whether a French- early SCARLET GLOBE 
man invented this 
radish or not we like it. Oblong in shape, scarlet tipped 
white. One of the prettiest radishes we have. Use them 
while small as they sobn get pithy. 
449—LADY FINGER. A long, slender white. Second 
early. Stands well without getting pithy. Has an agree¬ 
able snappy flavor. 
EARLIEST RED BALL 
441—EARLY BIRD. One 
of the earliest, round, bright 
reds. Same as Scarlet Globe. 
451—LONG SCARLET. A 
bed of these can be used from 
for a long time. Begin using 
when about half grown. Roots 
smooth, long and deep scar¬ 
let. Flesh white and crisp. 
444 — SCARLET TURNIP 
WHITE TIP. A bright red 
SCARLET TURNIP white TIP with a contrasty white tip. 
Very attractive. Bunched for 
market they are really tempting. Very early, round, 
tender and sweet. 
446—SAXA. A small, round, 
bright red. Very early and 
fine quality. 
445 — SP A R K L ER. Very 
much like Scarlet Turnip 
White Tip but supposed to be 
better. 
452—STRASBURG. A long, 
white, summer radish. 
448—WHITE ICICLE. Very 
early, mild, sweet and ten¬ 
der. Medium long snow white 
and quite brittle. One of the 
most tasty radishes we have. 
Small tops, grows quickly and 
stands a little longer than the 
round reds without getting 
pithy.

CULTURE—Plant very early using about one ounce of 
seed to 100 feet of row. 
Doc says to eat plenty of spinach and he must be right. 
That being the case we just as well have the best and the 
best, cooked according to some of the newer recipes, is 
certainly tasty and good. We have picked the varieties 
below as the best and you will not be disappointed. 
For a long season of spinach, plant two varieties, Re- 
Selected Bloodsdale and Noble’s Giant Thick Leaf. 
,229—BLOOMSDALE RE-SELECTED. The earliest of all. 
A medium sized leaf and plant. Leaves very much crump¬ 
led and dark green. Can be used a week or so before it 
seeds. 
230—NOBLE’S GIANT THICK LEAF. Yields very 
heavy. Largest leaves of all spinach varieties. Somewhat 
crumpled. Medium early. Medium slow to seed. Succu¬ 
lent, crisp and tender. 
261 — BIG 
G R E E NLEAF 
A second early 
and stands long¬ 
er than any oth¬ 
er before seed¬ 
ing. A compact 
plant. Leaves 
medium large 
and crumpled. 
Thick, tender, 
deep green 
leaves. 
212 — NEW 
ZEALAND. Does 
not resemble the 
above varieties 
but makes fine 
summer greens. 
Pull the tender leaves and more will come out. Makes a 
rank growth.
