Radishes 
Sparkler White Tip 
Radish 
Radishes give interest to the diet and stimulate the 
dullest appetites. Radishes are healthy, they contain 
some vitamin B, mineral salts, calcium, sodium, iron and 
phosphorus. They can be enjoyed from early Spring 
until late Fall by sowing succession crops, first the 
Spring varieties, then the Summer and Winter sorts. 
Our Radish seed is first selected for true, even types, 
then we have selected strains that do not run to seed 
quickly. You want crisp, solid Radishes and can get 
these from “Mile High Seeds.” 
Culture. One ounce to 100 feet of drill, 10 lbs. per 
acre. To grow good Radishes they must be grown 
quickly with no check in any stage of the growth. All 
varieties thrive best in light, sandy loam. For early 
use, Radishes can be grown in the hotbed with 
plenty of ventilation. In the open garden choose a 
light, rich soil and water them frequently. Sow the 
spring varieties every two weeks until hot weather. 
647 Earliest Scarlet Button. (18 days.) The ear¬ 
liest of all Radishes and the slowest of its class 
in shooting to seed. As the quickest growing 
Radishes are always the most tender and brittle 
you will really enjoy this one. This small, round 
Radish has a bright scarlet skin which contrasts beau¬ 
tifully with the pure white flesh. Very small top and 
tap root, an excellent forcing variety. Pkt, 5c; oz, 
15c; Vi lh, 40c; lb, $ 1 . 20 , postpaid. 
649 Sparkler White Tip. (21 days.) The most bril¬ 
liant in appearance of all Radishes. The upper 
half of the root is a brilliant scarlet, almost the 
entire lower half a pure white. This strain runs 
remarkably uniform in color, size and true ball 
shape. The best selling variety on practically all 
markets. Pkt, 5c; oz, 15c; 14 lb, 35c; lb, 75c, post¬ 
paid. 
652 Vick’s Scarlet Globe. (22 days.) Recommended 
for your main sowing. Usable almost as soon as 
the very earliest radishes and for a period of a 
week or ten days afterwards, or until they are 
nearly an inch through; and during that time they 
stay crisp, solid and tender, and mild in flavor. 
Color pure brilliant scarlet; very uniform in size 
and in shape, which is a rather long- oval. Tops 
and roots small. Excellent for market, greenhouse 
growing, or the home garden. Vick’s Scarlet Globe 
is one of the most attractive and worthwhile of all 
the red radishes we have had in our trials. Plant 
it with White Icicle and have a combination that’s 
hard to beat. Pkt, 5c; oz, 15c; 14 lb, 30c; lb, 75c, 
postpaid. 
648 Early Scarlet Turnip. (21 days.) A good variety 
for outdoor planting. Small, round variety of a 
deep, rich scarlet color. Crisp, tender flesh. Pkt, 
5c; oz, 15c; 14 lb, 30c; lb, 75c, postpaid. 
650 Early Scarlet Turnip White Tip. (21 days.) Simi¬ 
lar to Early Scarlet Turnip but has an attractive 
white tip. A carefully selected strain. Pkt, 5c; 
oz, 10c; 14 lb, 30c; lb, 75c, postpaid.
