into the soil a liberal supply of decomposed stable manure 
as the above and this method gives edible rhubarb in a very short time. 
CULTURE—Sow the seed 
in cold frame in the spring and 
as soon as the plants are large 
enough to transplant in rows 1 
foot apart each way and culti¬ 
vate. The following spring, 
plant out in rows 5 feet apart 
each way and each spring work 
Rhubarb roots are set out and cultivated 
LINAEUS—Early, large and tender. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; 14 lb., 45c; 1 lb., $1.50.

White Icicle 
CARPENTERS RADISHES 
For the best results the soil should be light, well pulverized, rich and 
mellow to insure quick growing, supplying plenty of water. Radishes per¬ 
mitted to grow slowly become tough and pithy, light frosts will not kill young 
plants, but will check the growth and they do best when kept growing right 
along. For a succession sow in every ten days. During the hot months of 
summer, winter radishes will do better than the early sorts. Winter radishes 
can be stored, same as potatoes, furnishing an acceptable relish through the 
winter months. 
Crimson Giant. (H2 days.) Double the size of any other early variety 
Not only quick growing for such a large variety but remains firm and crisp for a 
long season. Crimson Giant is similar to Scarlet Globe but larger and remains 
in edible condition for a much longer season. An excellent outdoor garden 
sort. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 30c; lb., 75c. Postpaid. 
There is no crop that will bring quicker returns for the market gardner. 
The leading variety is “Sparkler,” or if you wish an all scarlet, use “Earliest.” 
Our recommendations are Sparkler for early or succession; Icicle for second 
early; and Celestial or Chinese for winter use. 
CULTURE—Do best in sandy loam of good fertility. The seed should be 
sown just as early in the spring as possible in rows 12 to 18 inches apart. Rad¬ 
ishes must be given sufficient room to enable them to develop to full size with¬ 
out any check. It is, therefore, of great importance that they be thinned as 
often as necessary. The small round varieties should be from 1 to 1 % inches 
apart and the long ones 2 to 3 inches apart. 
EARLY LONG SCARLET—Grows six to seven inches Ion#, half 
out of the ground; is very brittle and crisp, and of Quick growth ; 
color, bright scarlet; small top ? tapers regularly to the root and is 
uniformly straight and smooth. 
WHITE STRASBURG—The most valuable summer radish in cul¬ 
tivation ; flesh pure snow-white, tender and of a pleasant, pungent 
taste, without being strong. 
WHITE-TIPPED SCARLET—A handsome very bright scarlet on 
top and shading to white on bottom ; crisp and fine and very popular 
with Denver market gardeners; used more generally than any other 
kind. 
EARLY SCARLET TURNIP—A small, round, turnip-shaped, with 
small top, and of very quick growth. 
FRENCH BREAKFAST—A medium-sized radish, olive-shaped, 
small top, of quick growth, very chisp and tender, of a beautiful scar¬ 
let color. All of the above varieties, pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 25c; 
1 lb., 75c; postpaid.
