. Fifteenth annual rural guide and seed catalogue. Nursery stock, Missouri, Carthage, Catalogs; Vegetables, Seeds, Catalogs; Flowers, Seeds, Catalogs; Grasses, Seeds, Catalogs; Agricultural implements, Catalogs. PEARL FORCING - (The following is copied from the originator)—This new sort introduced in the spring of 1891 is a cross between Wood's Early Frame and White Strasburg. A most distinguishing characteristic is its rich, waxy appearance. Tlie shape is one long sought for, and the most advantageous for bunching, being what might be called half stump rooted. The color is jjearl white, witli the waxy appearance above described, and the texture is very firm and solid. It is about one week later than Wood's Early frame, but after they are ready for marketing the> remain in eatable condition fully two weeks longer, before they show signs of going to seed, and do not become woody. Their long standing after being ready for market without going to seed or becoming woody or unfit for table use, more than makes up for wide planting. If grown properly they have a smaller top in forcing than when grown in the open field. All things considered, we pronounce it absolutely the very best general purpose White market Radish in existence. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c ; }-i lb. 20c; lb.
