RADISH—the Season Through 
Radies (Ger.) Ravanello (It.)

light, well-worked soil, made very rich and mellow. 
They are easy to grow and frequent plantings will 
insure a constant supply for the table. Summer va- 
rieties can be sown all spring and well into summer. 
Winter varieties should be planted in August and 
September.

BUT FRESH SPINACH FROM OUR 
OWN GARDEN TASTES BETTER 

MODERN SPINACH 
Spinat (Ger.) Spinace (It.) 
Spinach came from Arabia. 
KING OF DENMARK. Also known as “Antvorskov.” 
This new variety is undoubtedly the most valuable 
introduction of spinach in recent years. Although 
the plants are ready for use almost as soon as the 
medium early sorts they remain in good condition 
from a week to two weeks after all other varieties 
have gone to seed. The plants are of rapid growth, 
resemble the Long Season in type but leaves are 
more crumpled or blistered and are of darker green 
color. The leaves are thick, stand well after cutting 
and are of good quality. We believe this variety 
will in a few years be one of the leading sorts as 
its distinctive qualities are sure to win favor for 
it from both the home and market gardener. Pkt., 
10c; % Ib., 40c; Ib., $1.25. 
LONG STANDING, Prickly. A deep green variety 
with rather elongated smooth leaves. Seed, round. 
Stands a long time without running to seed. Pkt., 
10c; 0z., 15c; % Ib., 40c; Ib., $1.25. 
VICTORIA. A long-standing variety with round, 
slightly savoyed leaves. Deep green and hardy. 
Forms good, edible leaves early and continues to 
produce leaves for a long period. Pkt., 10c; 0z., 15c; 
Y% Ib., 40c; Ib., $1.25. 
BLOOMSDALE SAVOY. The variety most generally 
used in the East, and especially throughout the 
South for shipping. Leaves large, round and thick, 
very much savoyed and rich deep green. One of 
the earliest varieties. Seed round. Pkt., 10c; 0z.,
