SINCE THEY are fast-growers,
many gardeners mix radish seeds
thinly with seeds Of other vege-
tables that are slow to terminate.
The radishes grow quickly,
thereby marking the rows so that
cultivation can be started earlier
than It could otherwise.
The use Of radishes as line
markers Is illustrated In the &C
companying Garden-Graph. Early
in the spring radishes are ideal
as markers for parsley. They can
also be used to mark the rows
OF early beets and carrots
Long-type radishes are advised
for mid-season planting. after the
middle of May or the first of
June. Two good varieties for
midsummer planting are White
Icicle and Long White Vienna
In case one objects to white rad

So they had loaded the car with
groceries and bedding and jolted up

After July 1, . planting OF
winter radishes will be found
worth while. They grow to enor-
nous size and can be stored like
any winter vegetable. Although
they are rather sharp they can be
eaten raw. and they make a de-
sirable dish when cooked like

Winter radishes require from

them In rows II inches apart and,
as illustrated, thin the plants to

Winter radishes are left in the

stand considerable frost, but must
be pulled and stored before heavy
frosts arrive.
