RICE’S SAXA (22 days)—The earliest of the forcing radishes, and one of 
the slowest to shoot to seed. Round, bright scarlet, and with the smallest 
possible top. We have an excellent stock of this radish. ( Illustratedjoibove .) 
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 grow¬ 
ing; color, bright rose-scarlet, with small white tip. Good outdoors or 
under glass. 
RICE’S IMPROVED SCARLET GLOBE (24 days)—Noted for its extreme 
earliness, 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. (See Headliner No. 3.) 
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.
