SALZER’S • SEEDS* 
Radish 
Salzer’s Early Bird 
Handsome—Deliciously Spicy 
We introduced this grand variety 
over 45 years ago and have been ex¬ 
tensively developing and improving it 
ever since, so get your seed from us if 
you want genuine, true-to-type seed. 
Don’t take anything “just as good.” 
Salzer’s Early Bird is of globe-shape, 
bright scarlet color, has very short 
tops, flesh is pure white, fine grained, 
crisp, nice, spicy taste, and never be¬ 
comes hollow or pithy. Averages % 
to 1 inch in diameter, according to 
maturity. It is alike most valuable for 
outdoor planting in spring or in au¬ 
tumn, and always commands top 
prices. 
Salzer’s Early Bird, the incompa¬ 
rable radish, produces radishes ready 
for the table in about 12 days’ time, 
radishes that are uniform in size and 
shape, even in maturity, with small 
tops and of beautiful and attractive 
bright red color. It is also the best 
strain for growing under glass. 
Mr. Niels P. Sorenson, R. D. 2, Bat¬ 
tle Creek, Iowa, writes, “Have never 
before had such early, tender radishes 
as we had with your Early Bird. ’ ’ Mrs. 
A. E. Lovell, R. D. 3, Rapid City, S. D., 
writes, “We tried your Early Bird 
Radishes and they are wonderful in 
every way.” Mr. Ben Betten, 900 So. 
Sheridan Ave., Tacoma, Wash., writes, 
“Your Early Bird Radish is the best I 
ever raised in the hothouse. They don’t 
all run to tops.” Mr. Weldon Wilt, 
Duncansville, Pa., writes, “We were much pleased with Salzer’s Early Bird Radish.” Mr. Frank 
Weter, 325 Villa St., Elgin, Ills., writes, “I plant Salzer’s Early Bird Radishes, as I have found them to 
be the earliest and best radishes obtainable.” Mrs. Jason Drought, 207 Ridgewood Drive, Syracuse, 
N. Y., writes, “I planted Salzer’s Early Bird Radishes last year and found them to be the best variety 
of radish I ever planted.” 
Salzer’s Early Bird is a sure yielder and will not disappoint a single market gardener nor home gar¬ 
dener who sows it, but will be a source of genuine pleasure and profit. We know of none of our vegetables 
that will pay the market gardener better, and that is more desirable for the kitchen garden, than Sal¬ 
zer’s Early Bird Radish, planted and sown, in every section of the country. 
Now, the substance of the whole matter is this: If you are at all anxious, 
either as a market gardener or as a grower of Radishes for your own private 
table, to have Radishes from 6 to 12 days ahead of your neighbor, and if you 
are anxious to have the finest Radish that seed can produce, even under the 
most adverse circumstances, then by all means plant Salzer’s Early Bird. Its 
crisp, brittle flavor, as well as its remarkably quick growth and fine color, alike 
recommend it. In favorable weather the Radishes matured in about 12 days. 
q Not only is Salzer’s Early Bird extremely early, but it also yields heavily and 
SOW q Ua iity j s unsurpassed. You will agree that it is the earliest, finest and 
Genuine best tasting radish that is grown to-day.
