RADISH 
One ounce will plant a row 100 feet long; 5 to 8 pounds will sow an 
acre in 12-inch rows. When broadcast, 15 pounds of the long, or 25 
to 30 pounds of the globe varieties for an acre. 
Culture: The tenderness and sweetness of Radish are greatly depend- 
ent upon the rapidity of their growth. In the latitude of Norfolk sow 
out-of-doors, V2 inch deep, from February to October, broadcast in drills 
18 inches apart, or on beds in 10-inch drills, or in drills 1 foot apart. 
The early varieties are very hardy, but do best if they are sheltered by 
fences or woods. The winter varieties are sown from the middle of 
July to the last of September and used as needed. Grown under glass 
or cottons, the quality of all Radishes is wonderfully improved, and 
under this cultivation they may be sown at any desired time during 
the winter.
