Policeman Flynn circled round the
tree two or three times. but finally
made up his mind that the only thing
for him to do was to follow his wife's
advice. What happened after that Is
somewhat hazy. 1t was only q short
climb, but the branch could not be
reached from the ground. so the pa.
trolman encircled the tree with his

GIANT RADlsHEs OF THE EAST
There the Vegetable Grows to an
Enormous Size.

R%adishe3 in North China and in
Japan are as important and ubiqui-
tous a part of every meal as is bread
In America. In both countries many
millions of bushels Of this vegetable
are grown every year, and they are
to be had at all seasons. It is thus
easy to understand why these parts
biggest radishes known.
The giants beside the little French
Breakfast, our favorite American va
riety. are but babies beside the mon
sters they grow under the warm.
moist influences of the oriental eli.
mate.
These radishes are grown on Amer.
lean soil from seeds imported by the
United States department OF agricul-
ture from China. They take well to
the American climate. and probably
would have weighed five pounds when
full grown.
When these fellows are grown in
China they rapidly form a great bril-
liant red globe eight to ten inches In
diameter and weighing sometimes 20
pounds. Another kind Is snow white
and grows a foot long. and still ar
other Is a brilliant green on the out.
side and q beautiful wine red when
the skin Is cut. Some OF these
strange vegetables are exceedingly
delicate in flavor and texture when
grown under favorable conditions.
