(1 oz. will sow 100 ft. of drill; 8 to 10 lbs. per acre) 
Being a root crop, good brittle Radishes require 
light, well-worked soil, made very rich and mellow 
to insure quick growth. If permitted to grow 
slowly, they become tough and pithy. They are 
easy to grow and frequent planting will insure a 
constant supply for the table. Thin the very young 
plants somewhat. Summer varieties can be sown 
all Spring and well into Summer. Winter varieties, 
however, require some time to mature; plant in 
June to July. 
Peerless Radishes 
Radish 
Radish seed can be planted about as early as 
any of the vegetables. It is important that Rad¬ 
ishes be grown quickly, for if they come on slowly, 
they will be pithy and strong. Successive plant¬ 
ings may be made every two weeks.

olive-shaped Radish; small top, scarlet except at 
the tip, which is white; a splendid table variety
