THE DIENER TOMATO. 



Increase your tomato yield 100 per cent by 

 raisins the new DIENER TOMATO. SO to 40 

 tons of ripe fruit to the acre. 



Tbis tomato was raised last year all over the 

 United Stales and Canada with the greatest sat- 

 isfaction. 



As smooth as an apple and of a magnificent 

 dark red color. Single tomatoes weigh up to 8 

 lbs. each. The flesh is more solid than that of 

 any other tomato. The fruit contains little seed 

 and is solidly filled out. This tomato is free 

 of the acid taste, and for dehydrating, catsup 

 and canning it is the best tomato in existence 

 today. 



The DIENER TOMATO Is blight-resisting as 

 well as drought-resisting. It will not crack from 

 the rain and will not rot while lying on the 

 ground in wet weather. This tomato will grow 

 in almost any kind of soil and it commences to 

 ripen the first part of August. 



It Is the greatest novelty in the tomato line, 

 and it will soon crowd out the present varieties 

 from the market by its far superior qualities. 



Price of the DIENER TOMATO SEED. Sam- 

 ple package, 25c; one-quarter of an acre p.ick- 

 age, 50c; one acre package, $1.50.
