RADISHES —Continued 
Icicle Radish (White) 
Short-Topped Strain—Also Called Pearl Forcing 
To us this stock is as near the ideal of Icicle Radish, both for forcing and outdoors, as we 
have ever seen. It can also be grown successfully on muck. The radishes are uniformly smooth 
and clear white. The tops do not grow too long in the greenhouses or frames, but are plenty 
long for bunching when grown outdoors. See prices below.

We are pleased to offer again this year fine roots of the famous MacDonald Rhubarb. This 
rhubarb is the most distinct improvement made in rhubarb in many years. 
The plant is vigorous and strong, producing large tender stalks which are deep crimson in 
color. They make a very attractive bunch and when cooked the sauce is a beautiful deep pink 
color and of excellent flavor. Market growers who have been fortunate enough to get these roots 
in the past find this rhubarb sells readily at the highest prices. 
Strong root divisions. Doz. $4.00 transportation paid. Not prepaid: 100, $20.00.
