SALZER’S EARLIEST AND BEST 
This Pea is the EARLIEST WHITE, SMOOTH PEA on 
earth! It’s the pea for you, Mr, Market Gardener, Mr. Home 
Gardener, to plant, whether hy the package or by the bushel. 
It’s the greatest, earliest, big profit pea! Hundreds of thou¬ 
sands of customers, small buyers and large buyers, all over the 
United States and in foreign countries, have sown this world- 
famous straim and everybody acknowledges it the earliest, finest 
quality, and biggest money-making round, smooth pea in cultivation. 
Sailer’s Earliest and Best matures the entire crop at one time. It 
grows from 18 to 30 inches high, is extremely prolific, bearing from 
8 to 12 straight pods, each containing 7 to 8 medium sized, smooth, round 
peas, which are sweet and of excellent flavor. They are yellowish-white 
when ripe. Ready to pick for the market in 42 days. Yields of from 250 to 
300 bushels of green peas per acre have been reported of this variety, and 
have been sold at from $1.75 and even more, per bushel. It is the pea to 
plant for an extra-early money making crop. Can be sown as early in spring 
as the ground can be properly prepared. Salzer’s Earliest and Best is a grand 
variety for succession sowing, owing to its ability to resist mildew and to defy 
frost, both in spring and in the fall. Crop is short this year. 
Mr. G. E. Ray, Brownville, Nebr., writes, “Glad to report we picked our first Earliest 
B £S t Peas T # " J,me 3rd. They were the first on the market and brought 6c per lb.” 
Mr. Thomas Ingram, % Buxton 8 Market, Idaho Palls, Idaho, writes, “Had an enormous

SALZER’S SCORCHER 
Another great extra-early, hard, smooth pea, of medium height, very produc¬ 
tive and a splendid canner. A companion in earliness to the above strain, as 
we have bred and developed it to mature only a day or two later than Earliest 
and Best. The pods are of medium size, about 2% inches long and are literally 
packed with smooth, bluish-green sugary peas of melting quality. The vines, 
of vigorous growth, grow 2 to 3 feet high, and are very prolific. It has table 
quality, it is extra-early, it is immensely productive, it is most popular for 
canning, it produces a crop under varied conditions. Mr. Earl McDougall, Blein- 
heim, Ontario, 
Canada, writes:

Scorcher Peas, 
I netted 
$9.09.” E n -
