RADISH 
HOW TO GROW RADISHES.—For 
good, tender, well-shaped Radishes, you 
must have good, rich, deep, well-pre¬ 
pared soil. They cannot do well in hard, 
“clayey” soil. Sow the seed early and 
make other sowings every two weeks. This gives you fresh tender Radishes 
all season. If too large a sowing is made at one time, they may get tough or 
pithy before all can be used. Sow the seed in rows rather than broadcasting 
it, for when sown in rows they may be kept clean of weeds. Rows may be 
made 4 or 6 or 12 inches apart, depending on the quantity you 
are growing. Sow seed thin enough so they do not need to be 
thinned out. Sow seed of winter Radishes in July and August; 
then take them up before freezing and store in pits or cover 
with sand in the cellar, and they will keep finely all winter. 
One ounce will sow a row 100 feet long; 10 pounds to the acre.

The Radishes are perfectly round, large, snow-white, 
with very thin tap-root. The tops are medium to short, 
making them very suitable for outside, under sash, or

attractive show when displayed with Scarlet Globe or 
scattered among them. I urge you to grow a good
