An ounce will sow 100 feet of drill. 
The secret in growing good Radishes 
consists. chiefly in the observance on the 
part of the grower of three points. First, 
they should be grown on light quick soil. 
Second, they should be given plenty of 
water, and last, but by no means least, 
the right kind of seed should be sown. 
For the first crop sow as early in spring 
as ground can be worked, and every two 
weeks throughout the season. 
A warm, sandy loam, made rich and 
light by strong manure, is best. Sow in 
drills 10 to 12 inches apart. The winter 
varieties should be sown in July and 
August. One ounce will sow 100 feet of 
drill, 8 to 10 pounds per acre.
