This type of Radish, having -red skin with a white tip, has long been a great favorite, and with this variety the white por- tion extends much farther up than is the case with ordinary Scarlet Turnip White Tip Radish. The upper portion is a rich, brilliant red, showing in great contrast to the lower portion, which is pure white, and adding greatly to its attractive appear- ance. The general contour is turnip-shape, and size medium, very uniform, with flesh crisp, tender and sparkling. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; J lb., 40 cts.; lb., $
