and fresh, mild flavor until fully six inches long and an inch in di¬ 
ameter.

tom, tapering abruptly to a small top; skin very smooth, and of a 
bright rose color; flesh as solid as an apple; very good keeper.

as the hardiest of radishes, and is considered an excellent sort for win¬ 
ter use ; roots turnip-shaped; very large size and firm texture.

Culture—Plant when danger of frost is past

seeds to the hill and thin to three plants when they 
begin to vine.

straight. 50 days. 
MAMMOTH SUMMER CROOKNECK 
MAMMOTH SUMMER CROOKNECK 
—It is the best summer squash, and for 
these reasons: It is twice as large as 
the ordinary Summer Crookneck, far more 
warty and several days earlier. The com¬ 
bination of earliness, large size and wart¬ 
iness, which adds so much to its attractive¬ 
ness, makes it altogether the most desirable 
squash for the market or private garden.
