Radish. 
German, Rettig , Radieschen. — French, Radis , Rave, Petit Rave. — Spanish, Rabano. 
Radishes require a light, rich, sandy loam ; heavy or clayey ^oils not only delay 
their maturity but produce crops much inferior, both in appearance and especially in 
flavor. For a constant supply, sow from the middle of March until September, at 
intervals of two or three weeks. For an early supply they may be sown in a hot-bed 
in February. For winter radishes, sow the seed about beginning of July, and keep 
the roots during winter in a cool cellar, covered with earth. They should be placed 
in cold water an hour or so before using. One ounce of seed will sow 100 feet drill; 
10 lbs. per acre.
