RADISHES 
A packet will sow 15 to 20 feet of row; an ounce about 75 feet. 

Cavalier Radis 
The ideal short-topped radish for greenhouses, frames and outdoors. 
715 EARLY SCARLET GLOBE. “ons Island Strain. The 

Best Type for Outdoor 
Growing. These fine radishes are round to oval in shape with brilliant 
scarlet color and very fine tap roots. The tops are medium sized and 
the flesh is pure white, crisp and tender. The great uniformity and fine 
color of this stock have made it one of the most popular commercial 
strains for outdoor growing and it is certainly one of the finest for the 

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. Dust- 
ing the ground with lime or gypsum before the 
seed comes up will help keep the flies out and pre- 
vent 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 sum- 
mer, as they are not usually injured by maggots 
in the fall. 
705 CAVALIER. The Best Short Top 
Scarlet Globe. We think 
this is one of the finest radishes grown, and 
recommend it most highly. These radishes are of 
brilliant scarlet color which makes them most 
attractive. They are the true olive shape, very 
uniform, crisp and mild and have the ability to 
stand a long time without becoming soft. The 
tops grow somewhat shorter than Early Scarlet 
Globe. This is an excellent variety for outdoors, 
greenhouses, spring frame forcing and growing 
on muck.

716 EARLY SCARLET GLOBE. Special 
Strain. This is a short top strain and is widely 
used by market gardeners for greenhouse and 
frame growing. The radishes are a handsome 
olive shape, bright scarlet in color with good 
firm flesh. Under favorable conditions ready in 
20 days from sowing.

725 ICICLE °F Pearl Forcing. The Best 

White Radish. The radishes are 
long, straight, pure white, very smooth and nearly 
the same diameter the whole length. Should be 
grown in every home garden, not only for vari- 
ety but because of its extremely high quality. 
They grow 4 or 5 in. long and the flesh is crystal 
white, tender and mild. 
Icicle grows with remarkable rapidity and is the earliest long white 
radish. It does best on soil that is loose, rich and deeply prepared. Our 
strain is the true, refined short top type and is ideally suited for 
forcing and muck growing as well as being the finest strain for open 
ground. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25c; 144 Lb. 70c. 
710 EARLIEST SCARLET WHITE-TIPPED. Special Strain. Also called “Sparkler,” 
“Rosy Gem” and ‘Rapid Forcing.”’ This is the most attraetive radish we know. They

very crisp and mild. This is a short top strain and it does equally well in greenhouse, frame 
or garden. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25c; 14 Lb. 65c.

radish with deep black skin and white flesh. Should be sown in July and August for fall and 
winter use. The quality is very fine, crisp, solid and pungent. Our strain grows perfectly

moist sand. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25c; 14 Lb. 65c. 
SALSIFY or Vegetable Oyster 
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 vegetables 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, winter or early spring. Before the ground 
freezes a supply of roots should be dug and placed in moist sand in the cellar for use during 
the winter. 
740 MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND. The Best Strain. This improved variety grows 
very large, with long smooth thick roots of the best quality. Roots grow about 8 in. long and 
1 to 1% in. in diameter at the top, and are very even with a slightly tapering shape. An 
unusual and delicious vegetable.

707 COMET. Long Standing Round. This fine round radish is 
ideal for home gardens because it not only has excep- 
tionally fine quality but stands longer than any other kind without 
getting soft or pithy. We have had Comet stand fully two weeks longer 
than other kinds and still remain firm and solid with crisp mild flesh.

mended for the home garden and growers who want a round radish.
