Synonyms. 
The Danvers, Thor.,’ 85, was apparently the same as the Danvers 
Orange Half Long, Land., ’85. The Early Scarlet Horn, Blunt- 
Rooted, Everitt, ’85, was to all appearances the Early Scarlet Short 
Horn (Fr. Rouge courte hdtive), Vil., ’85. The Golden Ball, Ev- 
eritt, ’85, was either the latter, or else the French Forcing carrot, 
(Fr. Rouge tres courte a chassis, Vil.); we could not decide, as the 
row contained roots belonging to both these varieties. 
The Orange Gatepost, Till, ’85, was probably a misnomer, as it 
was a pale yellow carrot. 
PARSNIP. 
We planted seeds from 12 differently named packages, April 23, 
on soil prepared as for the beet. In 1883, we stated that of the 
parsnips we had then grown, could all be referred to three varieties. 
We still find no reason for changing this opinion, though we have 
since tested some new names. 
No difference was apparent between the Bloomsdale, Land., °35, 
Large Dutch, Greg., “85, Half Long Gurnsey (/’r. Long de Gurn- 
sey), Vil., °85, Hollow Crown, Sib., 85, Maltese, Greg., °85, and Sut- 
ton’s Student, Greg., 85. 
Early Round or Turnip, Greg., °85, Short or Early Round (Fr. rond 
hatif), Vil.,’&5, and Turnip Rooted, Land., ’89, also appeared identi- 
cal as did the Long, Vil., ’85, and Long White Dutch, Sib., ’85. 
RADISH. 
We planted seeds of the following list of radishes in the garden 
April 2, in rows twenty-one inches apart, and twelve feet long, one 
row to each name. 
The attack of the radish fly was so severe as to entirely ruin the 
roots of many varieties, hence the date of edible size is frequently 
omitted.
