GLOBE AND OLIVE-SHAPED VARIETIES 
EARLY DEEP SCARLET OLIVE-SHAPED (25 days)-—Of attractive olive shape. 
Color, deep scarlet. 
FRENCH BREAKFAST (24 days)—Of oblong form, small and quick growing; 
color, bright rose-scarlet, with small white tip. Good outdoors or under glass. 
RICE'S IMPROVED SCARLET GLOBE (24 days)—Noted for its extreme earli¬ 
ness, perfect shape, small top, brilliant color, and unmatched quality. Its 
bright scarlet color lends attractiveness to the crisp, tender, globe-shaped 
roots. One of the earliest forcing varieties, which does equally well outdoors.

LONG VARIETIES 
CINCINNATI MARKET (29 days)—An improved strain of Long Scarlet, being 
slightly larger and with a very small top; roots 6 to 7 inches long, scarlet 
colored; flesh white, almost transparent, brittle and crisp. 
ICICLE, or LONG WHITE (30 days)—The handsome, long, pure white roots have 
tender, brittle, juicy and agreeably snappy flesh. It is to be preferred to Lady 
Finger or Long White Vienna. 
LONG BRIGHTEST SCARLET, or LONG CARDINAL (25 days)—One of the best 
colored, most handsome as well as the earliest of the long scarlet radishes; 
crisp and tender until full grown; roots not quite so long as Long Scarlet, 
and of a bright vivid scarlet color, tipped white. 
WHITE GIANT STUTTGART (42 days)—The roots are large, top-shaped and fre¬ 
quently four inches in diameter and of equal length; of a clear white color. 
A fine summer or fall radish. 
WHITE STRASBURG (39 days)—Roots are about 5 inches long, thick at the 
shoulder and abruptly tapering; skin and flesh pure white, and remain firm 
and brittle longer than most varieties. 
FALL OR WINTER VARIETIES 
LONG BLACK SPANISH (55 days)—One of the latest and hardiest varieties for 
winter use; roots 8 to 9 inches long, 2 to 3 inches in diameter, and nearly 
black in color. 
ROUND BLACK SPANISH (56 days)—Roots are round, inclined to top-shape, 
and 3 to 4 inches in diameter; skin almost black; flesh white, crisp and 
pungent. 
ROSE CHINA WINTER, or SCARLET CHINA (52 days)—One of the very best 
winter sorts. Roots are cylindrical, or largest near the bottom; stump rooted 
or blunt at both ends; skin smooth and bright, deep rose color; flesh white, 
crisp and pungent. The roots grow 5 to 6 inches long and 2 inches thick. 
WHITE CHINESE, or CELESTIAL (60 days)—Roots 6 to 8 inches long, thick, 
cylindrical and smooth, with a beautiful white skin and flesh; the whitest and 
least pungent of the winter radishes. 
RAPE 
DWARF ESSEX — For sowing. There is no plant that will give so large a yield 
of forage at so small a cost as this. Our strain is an especially selected English 
variety which produces a much heavier crop than the ordinary strain.
