WE SPECIALIZE IN FANCY STOCKS OF RADISH 
Vick’s Scarlet Globe 
Culture —For forcing under glass, scatter 100 to 
to 150 seeds over a square foot of soil, covering 
with a half inch of soil sifted on. Sow in the open 
ground as soon as the soil can be worked. Rad¬ 
ishes grow best in a warm moist place. One ounce 
will sow 100 feet; 10 to 12 pounds per acre. 
THREE OF OUR BEST RADISHES 
VICK’S SCARLET GLOBE. For forcing or outdoors, 
this variety will give the best satisfaction. The 
root is globe shaped and a bright scarlet color. 
SAXA. One of the best for forcing, as the tops 
are very short and the variety is very early. 
Root is ball shaped, scarlet in color and very 
uniform. Equally good for outdoor use. 
ROUND BLACK SPANISH. We have a very super¬ 
ior strain of this winter radish. The roots are 
an even black, free from white streaks, top 
shaped. The flesh is white. 
OTHER STANDARD VARIETIES 
CRIMSON GIAN1. A popular outdoor sort, globe 
shaped and larger than Scarlet Globe. 
EARLY SCARLET TURNIP. An old standard, round, 
scarlet variety. 
FRENCH BREAKFAST. An old standard sort with 
oblong roots of bright scarlet color, tipped with 
white.

tractive long scarlet radish, about 6 inches long.
