RABANITO (; The Radish is one of our most popular vegetables, but it contains little or no nourish- ment, and. should never be eaten unless young and crisp, as when they become old and pithy they are exceedingly unwholesome ; as their tenderness entirely depends on the rapidity of their growth, the soil should therefore be light, rich, and finely pulverized ; avoid a very great error which is frequently made in sowing too thick, as when such is the case they will form no bulb; they must therefore either be sown thinly or thinned out. To have a constant supply, a sowing should be made every ten days from early in Spring until the beginning of Summer ; the soil should be very rich and finely pulverized. The early varieties can be sown broadcast, very early in the season, among crops of Peas, Beets, Onions, etc., if, however, not sown until late, they will ia variably shoot to seed before forming any bulb. Buist's Selected Early Long" Scarlet.—This im- proved strain of Long Scarlet Radish is regarded by our most extensive market gardeners, to be the finest stock they ever grew; for earliness, brilliancy of color and shortness of top it can- not be surpassed, and is the most profitable to grow for an early crop.
