RADISH 
Culture For forcing under glass, scatter 100 to 150 
over a square foot of soil, covering with a half inch of soil 
sifted on. Sow in the open ground as soon as the soil can be 
worked. Radishes grow best in a warm moist place. One 
ounce will sow 100 feet; 20 to 30 pounds per acre. 
ROUND VARIETIES 
SPECIAL FORCING SCARLET GLOBE Most strains of 
radish will produce more tops than roots when 
grown in the hothouse. For this sort of work, we 
have this special strain of Scarlet Globe which has 
a very small top, bred especially for hothouse use. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; ^4 lb., 25c; lb., 75c. 
SPECIAL EARLY SCARLET GLOBE We recommend 
this strain very highly to those market gardeners 
who serve a high class trade, as it will command a 
higher price than the ordinary. Bred for perfect 
color and shape, with almost never a pale or purple 
radish. Far superior to most strains. Pkt., 5c; oz., 
10c; % lb., 20c; lb., 60c. 
EARLY SCARLET GLOBE A very good stock of the 
variety as usually sold, though not to be compared

quality. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 15c; lb., 50c. 
SAXA A popular radish for both forcing and for outdoor use.

this variety is very early and the top very short, it is rapidly 
gaining favor. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; *4 lb-, 25c; lb., 75c.
