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 i/^ 
to 1 inch in diameter, according to 
maturity. It is alike most valuable for 
outdoor planting in spring or in au¬ 
tumn, and usually commands top 
prices. 
Salzer’s Early Bird, the incompa¬ 
rable radish, has produced radishes 
ready for the table in about 12 days’ 
time, radishes that were uniform in 
size and shape, uniform in maturity, 
with small tops and of beautiful and 
attractive bright red color. It is also 
one of the best strains for growing 
under glass. 
Mr. Lester Kranieh, R. D. 5, Box 110, 
West Bend, Wis., writes, “Your seeds 
are the best I have had and your Early 
Bird Radish can’t be beat.” Mrs. Gust 
Orth, R. D. 2, Box 108, Alpena, S. D., 
writes, “I like your Early Bird Radish 
very much indeed.” Mrs. R. M. Cor- 
ron, Wasco, Ills., writes, “Your Early 
Bird Radishes surely are fine. We 
found them the earliest and the best of 
any radishes that we planted.” Mrs. 
Clara Fiala, R. D. 4, Box 150, Council Bluffs, Iowa, writes, “I have used your Early Bird Radishes for 
37 years and I still think they are the best. Our family bought seeds from you 55 years ago.” Mrs. 
Laura Brovant, Vermontville, Mich., writes, “Your radishes are fine. We planted a lot of your Early 
Bird Radish seed this year.” Mr. Weldon Wilt, Duncansville, Pa., Avrites, “We were much pleased 
with Salzer’s Early Bird Radish.” 
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 flne color, alike 
recommend it. In favorable weather the Radishes matured in about 12 days. 
Not only is Salzer’s Early Bird extremely early, but it also yields heavily and 
its quality is unsurpassed. You will agree that it is the earliest, finest and 
best tasting radish that is grown to-day.
