tu~ Strain—Short Top—Rescreened 
23 Days 
Its bright scarlet color, handsome 
shape, small tap root and _ ideal 
size, combine to make this one of 
the most desirable as well as the 
most popular of the early table 
radishes. Until they are nearly an 
inch in diameter, the flesh is mild 
and crisp. They are at their best 
when not quite fully grown. 
Recommended for greenhouse forc- 
ing. This variety used extensively 
in the southern muck areas where 
it has proved its superiority over 
all other strains. 
EARLY SCARLET GLOBE, 
24 Days 
This strain is almost identical to 
our Early Scarlet Globe, except 
that the roots are a trifle olive in 
shape and the tops are a little 
longer. Preferred by many for out-

the lower part snow white, making 
an attractive combination. The

without becoming pithy.
