RE-SELECTED RADISHES 
It is well known that the ordinary radish seed is saved from 
radishes that have been planted in the usual way and allowed 
to go to seed. In following this method there is not any oppor¬ 
tunity to have the radishes rogued or re-selected. For the best 
gardeners’ trade we are offering transplanted or re-selected

improvement over the old reliable Scarlet Turnip, White
