OLDS’ CRISPY RADISHES 
Olds’ Radish Seed is grown from hand-transplanted roots. In this way the 
types are kept pure and true and no seed is produced that is not from per- 
fectly sound radishes. Growers who raise radishes for the market should use 
only seed of this type. The crop can be placed on the market earlier than 
from ordinary seed and also quality radishes can be had long after radishes 
grown from ordinary seed have become pithy and hollow. All growers should 
sow the best seed obtainable if they want to receive the maximum profit from 
their crop. For larger amounts see our Market Gardeners’ List, opposite 
page 1. 
CULTURE: Planting radish seed at improper depths is often the cause 
of the bulbs being various shapes. Plant about % inch deep. Radishes do 
best on a light, rich, mellow soil. Sow in drills 10 inches apart and thin to 
two inches in the row. Sow the early round red sorts first, the long-growing 
varieties a week later, and the winter varieties in July and August. One 
packet will sow 25 feet; 12 pounds an acre. 
MAGGOT CONTROL. Corrosive Sublimate will control maggots which 
attack cabbage, onion and radish crops. Mix one ounce with 10 gallons of 
water. Pour this solution around the base of the plants when they are two 
to three inches tall. Use one gallon to every 35 feet of row. For cabbage 
plants use one-half teacup to a plant. 
Your druggist has corrosive sublimate.
