FIRECRACKER RADISH 
Something different and a radish of great merit! 
Rather long, slender, all red radishes, bearing a fanciful 
resemblance to firecrackers, hence the name. 
Salzer’s Firecracker is a distinct type of Long Scarlet 
Radish. In color it is vivid scarlet, cylindrical in shape, 
long, with very slender tap root and short tops. In ad¬ 
dition it is extra early! Has a deliciously spicy taste, 
and this with its distinctive shape, make it a fine radish 
for either the home gardener or the market gardener. 
The tender radishes yield abundantly in almost any soil, 
are most attractive and are greatly to be desired. Guests 
at your table will remark about them.

can still do a good job at bossing a garden and enclose our order.—Mr. E. R. Ruggles, Idlewilde Resort, Osakis, Minn.
