Eighty-five super-standard strains season of Eighty-five super-standard strains season of 1927 eightyfivesupers1927fran Year: 1927 S UPER-5TANDARD STRAINS STOKES CROwroc smci i«7s SEEDS Early Scarlet Globe Radish Two strains—for greenhouse and for field cultivation Days to maturity, 25. We take a just pride in these two excellent stocks of Scarlet Globe. This seed is of European origin and was grown by a man whom we consider one of the most painstaking plant-breeders and seed-growers in Europe. A member of our firm examined these strains this past spring. Reports from customers also show unusually fine results. This is the first year that we have offered two separate strains of Scarlet Globe and we consider both of them equally pure. They are quite distinct, however, as one is a Field Type and the other a Forcing Type. The slightly higher price charged for the Forcing Type is not due to superior quality, but to the fact that it produces less seed. Field Type This strain is recommended as excellent for field cultivation. Its top-growth reaches about 4 inches at market stage. The purity of this strain has reached a high mark of perfection, both as to the brilliant scarlet root and to the true globe shape. It will average 134 by inches, reaching this size in just over three weeks. Our Field-Type Scarlet Globe represents one of the finest strains ever developed and is recommended with great assur- ance. Price, delivered: Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 20 cts.; Y^b. 30 cts.; lb. $1; 5 lbs. or more, 90 cts. per lb. Forcing Type Greenhouse men will find that this stock meets their most rigid standards. The restricted growth of the top of this Radish is its distinguishing feature. It will only develop to a height of about 2^ inches above the ground. For this reason this strain is not recommended for field cultivation.^ All green- house men will be deeply impressed with the bril- liant red color of the root. Off-color types are practically unknown in this strain. Price, delivered: P
