Crimson Giant Globe 
Your Firecracker Radish is a quick grower and a good seller.—Mr. Mahlon Warner, R. D. 1, Huntertown, Indiana, 
Pure white color, almost like crystal, so clear 
and transparent! Matures in about 18 days. It 
is a highly developed strain of finest quality and 
produces some of the earliest radishes that can be 
grown. 
It is of olive shape, is adapted to all soils, has 
a very short top, unusually thin skin, never be¬ 
comes woody, flesh crisp, tender, and fine, spicy 
taste. Equally good for outdoor sowing or for 
growing under glass. Home gardeners, sow this and 
Salzer’s Early Bird Radish for the earliest, finest 
two radishes in your neighborhood. Market garden¬ 
ers sow these two varieties and make money. Mrs. 
Charles E. Beadle, 414 North Second St., Marshall, 
Ill., writes, “Your Earliest White Radishes are ex¬ 
tra fine. We can’t do Avithout them.” Mrs. M. 
Yunker, Hecla, So. Dak., writes, “My friends told of 
a party Avho i*aised such fine early radishes, and I 
find they were Salzer’s Earliest White Radishes.”
