RADISHES . 
A packet will sow 15 to 20 feet of row; an ounce about 75 feet. 
To get the best radishes in the open ground the soil should be loose and quite rich, and the 
growth quick and steady. Sow the seed in rows a foot apart and thin the plants to 2 inches 
apart. Dusting the ground with lime or gypsum before the seed comes up will help keep the 
flies out and prevent injury by maggots. By sowing radish seed in August or the first part of 
September much better radishes can be raised than in the spring and summer, as they are 
not usually injured by maggots in the fall.

SALSIFY or Vegetable Oyster 
4 & 

A packet will sow 15 ft. of row; an ounce 75 ft. 
“Oyster Plant,” as it is often called, is 
easily grown and is used in the late fall and 
winter when there are very few fresh vege- 
tables to be had. Market gardeners find this a 
profitable vegetable to grow. 
The largest roots are grown on rather light 
rich soil, but good ones can be produced on 
almost any good garden land. Sow the seed | 
in May in rows 2 feet apart and thin the 
plants to 3 inches apart. The roots can be 
used any time in the fall and winter. They 
may remain in the ground all winter, but 
before the ground freezes a supply of roots 
should be dug and placed in moist sand in 
the cellar for use in the winter.
