890 Comet © — Brigit scarlet, long standing; All-America Winner 
25 days. Bred to meet the increasing demand for an early radish that has the same qualities 
as Vick’s Scarlet’'Globe, but with a rounded instead of an olive-shaped root. Comet fills the bill; 
the roots are globe to olive-shaped, bright scarlet, small tap-roots, and for eating and keeping 
qualities it is surpassed by none. Ideal for home gardens because it will remain crisp and solid fora 
long time. Tops are large enough for convenient bunching, making it desirable for commercial use.

886 Crimson Giant Globe— Zui, notwithstanding tts size 
29 days. Differs trom most others as the roots attain a large size without be- 
coming hollow or pithy. The shape is a perfect globe, 2 in. in depth, 1% in. 
in diameter, with thin, tender skin of deep crimson and solid white flesh 
which is firm, crisp and mild in flavor. It is a very popular variety, of 
large size, finest quality and remains edible for a long time. Sow 
seed thinly to permit full development of the roots, and for the 
biggest radishes see that the soil is moderately moist, fertile 
and deeply prepared. Crimson Giant should be thinned to 
a wider spacing than smaller varieties; we suggest leaving 
at least 2 in. between plants for full development.
