RADISHES. 
SUMMER VARIETIES. 
WINTER VARIETIES. 
Radishes are divided into two classes, Summer and 
Winter. The Spring Radish must make a rapid growth 
to be crisp and tender. For early use, seed should be 
sown in the hot-bed, in drills four or five inches apart 
and half an inch deep. For an early crop in the open 
ground select a sandy soil and a warm, south border, 
under the shelter of a fence or building, if possible. A 
load of fresh, sandy loam from the woods, is better than 
manure for the Radish crop. As soon as the first leaves 
appear, sprinkle with soot or ashes to save from the little 
turnip fly. I he Winter Radish should be sown about 
the middle of summer, and like the Turnip makes its 
best growth in the autumn. Pitted out of doors, or 
buried in earth in a cool cellar, it will keep crisp all 
winter. An hour before using place the Winter Radish 
in cold water.
