RADISHES 
One of the easiest crops to grow, 
radishes will succeed in any good, well 
prepared and fertilized soil. Sow about 4 
inch deep in rows a foot apart and thin to 
1 or 2 inches apart in the row. Make 
succession plantings every week or ten 
days throughout the cool weather of 
spring and early fall. For root maggots, 
use Chlordane. (See page 82.) 
706 CHERRY BELLE. 
24 days. This is a most attractive radish, 
smooth, uniform and of highest quality. 
It has exceptionally short tops and is per- 
fect for growing under glass as well as out- 
doors on muck or in the garden. One of the 
quickest to reach edible size, these bright- 
ly colored radishes are round as a marble 
and have pure white flesh of delightful 
flavor and crispness. The short tops, 
slender tap roots and excellent eating 
qualities make it highly desirable for home 
or market. Pkt. 15c; Oz. 40c; 14 Lb. 95c.

705 CAVALIER. The Best Short Top Scarlet Globe. 24 days. This spe- 
cial selected strain of Cavalier can be highly recommended. It is an 
early, rapid growing type with brilliant scarlet color which makes it 
most attractive. The radishes are the true olive shape, very uniform, 
crisp and mild and have the ability to stand a long time without be- 
coming soft. The tops grow somewhat shorter than Early Scarlet 
Globe. This is an excellent early variety for outdoors, greenhouses, 
spring frame forcing and muck growing. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 44 Lb. 75c.

house, frame or garden. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 75c. 
7O7 COMET. Long Standing Round. 
28 days. Two important features make Comet the favorite outdoor radish of home 
gardeners and critical market growers—its quality is exceptionally fine and it will 
stand much longer than any other variety without getting soft or pithy. By making 
several plantings, you can enjoy these crisp mild radishes all season long. 
With its bright red color and neat round shape, Comet’s appearance is most attrac- 
tive. The tops are medium short and the tap roots are very fine. It is ideal for the home 
garden, and makes a handsome firm round radish for the commercial grower. See photo
