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 14 
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 22 days’ time 
and less, 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. EK. J. McClellan, 1114 E. Ne- 
braska Ave., Spokane, Wash. writes, 
“‘T think your Early Bird Radishes are 
the finest for the home garden that 
I have ever grown.’’ Mr. L. M. Goss- 
man, 820 N. Duluth Ave., Sioux Falls, 
S. D., writes, “‘Your Early Bird 
Radishes are turning out so nicely 
under adverse conditions, that I am 
ordering some more seed so I have 
more coming along.’’ Mrs. Arne M. 
Olson, R. D. 3, Brockton, Mont., writes, ‘‘Have planted your Early Bird Radish for the past five years 
as it is the earliest radish I have ever grown and brings a fine profit. I sold 1800 bunches last spring 
and am well known in several towns for my wonderful radishes.’’ Mrs. Louie Brimmer, R. D. 2, Box 9, 
Plum City, Wis., writes, ‘‘Your Early Bird gives us radishes before any one else has any.’’ Mr. Fred 
Friday, Cambria, Wis., writes, ‘“Your Early Bird Radishes were fine.’’ 
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. 
q é 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 3 to 10 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 mature in about 22 days. 
Sow Not only is Salzer’s Early Bird extremely early, but it also yields heavily and 
Genuine a ee is vue urpes as You will agree that it is the earliest, finest and 
a est tasting radish that is grown to-day! ~ \
