NEW E4RLY WHITE DELICACY This new sort is a cross between Wood's Early Frame and our Improved White Strasburg. A most distinguishing charac- teristic is its rich, waxy appearance.

The color is pearl white, with the waxy ap- pearance above described, and the texture is very firm and solid. It is about one week later than Simon's Solid Ivory, but after they are ready for marketing they re- main in eatable condition fully two weeks before they show signs of gning to seed, and do not become woody. Top short, flesh mild and crisp. Pkt. sc., oz. loc, % lb. 25c., lb. 75c., 5 lbs. NEW WHITE ITALIAN GEM This is a wonderfully good sort for late summer and autumn use. Seed should not be sown before July 1st. It resembles the China Rose in size and shape, and is the sweetest of all radishes. We, however, especially recommend it as the iest of all ivinter radishes from seed sown early in August. Instead of being woody, as are so many winter radishes, the skin and flesh are both snoiv-white, crisp, brittle, and of best quality. Excellent mar- ket sort. Pkt. sc., 02. IOC., V lb. 230., lb. 90c. FELTON'S MODEL WHITE BOX. An improvement upon the Philadelphia White Box, having a shorter top, prettier shape and somewhat earlier. Pkt. 5c., oz. loc, % lb. 20c., lb. 60c. White Radish Known.
