DeCan- doUe, whilst accepting Car- riere's experiments, was unable to understand how the Rad- ishes of India, China and Japan could have originated from the charlock, since that plant is un- known in those countries and the Radish has been grown there for centuries. It is pes sible that the Radish was car ried eastward from Asia and Europe, but such not been the general cours igration of plants. It is RADISH garden. In order to secure high quality it is essential to use well-bred seed, secure a quick growth, and use the product when in prime condition. Sprititj Ifddishes. âThe earlier quick-growing sorts will reach a usable size in 20-40 days from planting, .ind become pithy and worthless within 10-12 days later. Therefore repeated sowings are necessary to insure a continuous supply. The plant is very hardy, and the iirst sowing should be made as soon as the ground can be worked.
