"SERVE RADISHES THE SEASON THROUGH" 
(1 oz. will sow 100 ft. of drill—8 to 10 lbs. per acre) 
Being a root crop, good brittle Radishes require light, well-worked soil, made very rich and mellow 
to insure quick growth. If permitted to grow slowly, they become tough and pithy. They are easy to 
grow and frequent planting will insure a constant supply for the table. Thin the very young plants 
somewhat. Summer varieties can be sown all Spring and well into Summer. Winter varieties, however 
require some time to mature; plant in June or July.
