Prices Include Postage on Pkts., Ozs., Vi Lbs. and Lbs Radishes are one of the most popular spring and summer vegetables, and it is easy by successive sowings to have a generous supply throughout the entire season. We have divided the varieties into four classes, and call attention especially to the long-rooted sorts which remain in condition a long time before becoming pithy. Suggest that you try the White Chinese Winter, sowing the seed the same time as recommended for turnips. CULTURE Radishes thrive best in light, rich, mellow soil, and to bring out their mild qualities they must make quick and tender growth. Sow for very early use in hotbeds during the win- ter and early spring, or later on in sheltered borders in well-ma- nured, deeply-dug and finely-raked soil. If not well stimulated into a rapid grovrth they become fibrous and tough. Sow in drills 10 inches apart and thin to 2 inches in the rows. Sow at intervals of 2 or 3 weeks until Sep- tember for a succession. Sow winter varieties in July and August. Like the turnips, they make the best growth in the autumn, and must be taken out before severe frost and stored away in a cool cellar in sand or in a pit where they will keep tender and crisp all the winter. Before using, put in cold water, which adds to their Scarlet Globe Radish.
