Early Bird Radish  |si"¥77isom Rapish 
We introduced this grand radish over 50 years ago and have 
been extensively developing and improving it, 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 becomes hollow or pithy. Averages Y2 
to 1 inch in diameter, according to maturity. It is alike most valu- 
able for outdoor planting in spring or in autumn, and usually com- 
mands top prices. 
Salzer’s Early Bird, the incomparable radish, has produced 
radishes ready for the table in 12 days’ time under very favorable 
conditions, radishes that were uniform in size and shape, uniform 
in maturity, with small tops and of beautiful and attractive bright 
red color. For the average gardener, however, one may figure 
about 18 days maturity. It is also one of the best strains for grow- 
ing under glass. 
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. Not only is Salzer’s Early Bird 
extremely early, but it also yields heavily and its quality is unsur- 
passed. You will agree that it is the earliest, finest and best tast 
ing radish that is grown to-day!

“What Customers : Say 
Mr. E. J. McClellan, 1114 E. Nebraska Ave.,, 
Spokane, Wash., writes, “I think your Early Bird 
Radishes are the finest for the home garden that I 
have ever grown.” Mr. L. M. Gossman, 820 N. 
Duluth Ave., Sioux Falls, 8. D., writes, “Your Early 
Bird Radishes are turning out so nicely under ad- 
verse 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.”

An Exceptionally Fine Radish 

Salzer’s 
Blood Red 
Snow White Tipped 

The lively scarlet color points off to a pure white 
tip, giving it a most attractive appearance. It's per- 
fection itself when it comes to quality and earliness! 
Splendid for forcing, also fine to plant as a succes- 
sion variety. Radishes run uniform in both shape 
7, and size, averaging about %4 inch in diameter. The 
i he skin is thin and tops are very short. The sparkling, 
snow white flesh is crisp, tender, fine grained and 
sweet. Does not become pithy or hollow. Matures 
in about 23 days.
