RADISHES— Continued 
707 Comet 
Long Standing Round 
This fine round radish stays crisp and solid in 
warm weather long after other kinds have 
become pithy, and has an excellent quality and 
attractive appearance that make it ideal for 
outdoor crops. It has a uniformly round shape 
and grows larger than Early Scarlet Globe. 
Market gardeners like its large even size, 
small tap roots and rich scarlet color, and 
customers enjoy its crisp white flesh and de- 
licious flavor. For outdoor growing our strain 
of Comet is the best obtainable. See prices 

below. COMET—Perfect for summer planting.

Best for Market 
This is by far the most popular variety of 
Swiss Chard. It has larger and thicker 
leaves than any other kind and they are 
heavily crumpled and very dark green. 
The stem and midrib are broad, thick and 
white, and the plants are vigorous and 
sturdy. This is a very uniform type and 
so superior to all others that we do not offer 
any other variety.
