Salzer’s Earliest of All Tomato 
Although introduced by us many years ago, Salzer’s 
Earliest of All is still the leading extra early tomato, 
the earliest large-sized variety grown, and we believe, 
as we are constantly improving it, it will hold its posi¬ 
tion and will stay on top as the Earliest of All. 
With us in the North it has always been a study to 
produce extremely early vegetables, such as will ripen 
and produce perfect fruit in a short time, and in Ear¬ 
liest of All our efforts have been successful. Every¬ 
body who has tried it, speaks of it in highest praise. 
Earliness in tomatoes is essential for the market 
grower and highly desirable for the home garden. 
Salzer’s Earliest of All is the best extra-early so far 
produced; it is our very earliest strain; it is a “short sea¬ 
son” tomato. Ripening as it does in about 108 days, in 
the North, it is especially well adapted to all sections of 
the country, which makes it so decidedly popular. Finely 
bred for uniformity in size, attractiveness, extra earli¬ 
ness, and trueness to type, Salzer Quality is nowhere bet¬ 
ter evidenced than in this fine, highly praised variety. 
If you want the very earliest tomatoes, combined with 
fine flavor, meatiness, productiveness, attractiveness, and 
tenderness, you should plant our Earliest of All. It is 
bound to please the most particular. 
The fruits are of good size, brilliant scarlet color, nearly 
round, entirely smooth, and remarkably handsome. The 
flesh is solid, and of the finest flavor. The fruits are borne 
continuously in large numbers until killed by frost. They 
have a tough skin, firm flesh, making them good shippers 
and keepers. 
Mr. J. W. Reed, R. D. 1, Box 47, Taylors Falls, Minn., 
writes, “Since using; Salzer’s Earliest of All I have been 
one of the first to have ripe tomatoes here. Many ask the 
name of them.” Mrs. Monroe Stear, 514 North Penn St., 
Punxsutawney, Pa., writes, “We have planted your Ear¬ 
liest of All Tomatoes for years and have never found,, 
anything like them.” Mr. Oscar Matthews, R. D. 5, Nampa, 
Idaho, writes, “I have usually brought the first ripe to¬ 
matoes into town, with your Earliest of All Tomato seed.” 
Price of Salzer’s Earliest of All: 1118—Pkg., 15c; 
% oz., 35c; oz., 60c; 2 oz., $1.00; U lb., $1.75; 
lb., $6.25, postpaid. 
I must say that Salzer’s Earliest of All Tomatoes were the earliest and the best tomatoes I ever raised.—Mr. D. F. 
Barnhart, R. D. 1, Missouri Valley, Iowa.
