"My Maryland," Bolgiano's Wonderful New Tomato 



"My Maryland" Goes Ahead Of Any Tomato 



Miles Ransch. of Plaitificld. N. J., zvritcs: "My Maryland 

 Tomato goes ahead of any Tomato I ever grew. I set out fire 

 hundred of 'My Maryland' and five hundred of 'Greater Balti- 

 more' side by side last Spring and I find that 'My Maryland To- 

 matoes held out a great deal the best, the vines of 'My Maryland' 

 Tomato kept green until the frost killed them, and even then 

 they had lots of fruit on them." 



"My Maryland" The Best In A Long'Life Experience 



Mr. L. Repman, of Lawrence Co.. Pa., zvritcs as follows: 

 "Your seeds are good, advanced age is reducing my garden work, 

 I am doing but little; but in Tomato. 'My Maryland' were the 

 very best in all my experience, so kindly send me more." 

 Decidedly Disease Resistant 



Mass. Agr. College, Amherst, Mass., Prof. C. S. Heller writes: 

 "We tried your new 'My Maryland' Tomatoes along side of oth- 

 ers in the same field and given similar treatment. I find it to be 

 a very desirable sort. Compared with others, it is decidedly dis- 

 ease resistant and a heavy yielder. The fruits are large, smooth 

 and quite regular, ripening very evenly." 

 All Were Large And Firm 



Mr. Geo. Frampton. of Talhut Co., Md., lurites as follows: "I 

 received $5.00 as a prize on 'My Maryland' Tomato at our County 

 Fair. Last year I grew 13 tons to the acre from 'My Maryland' 

 seed, all of the Tomatoes were large and firm. I like 'My Mary- 

 land' Tomato very much," 



Bolgiano's Wonderful New Tomato 



"My Maryland" 



King of Them All. Has Surpassed the 

 Best Yielding Tomato in the World More 

 Than 100%— A Marvelous Double Yielder. 



77. Side by side it has produced three times 

 the crop produced by the Stone or New Cen- 

 tury. It has even doubled the yield of the 

 Greater Baltimore Tomato. 



The vast possibilities of this New Tomato 

 are astounding. We believed in Greater Balti- 

 more Tomato the limit of productiveness had 

 been reached, but "My Maryland" so far out- 

 yields any other Tomato ever grown that its 

 remarkable productiveness is amazing. People 

 have driven miles to see a field of "My Mary- 

 land" Tomatoes and they all marveled at the 

 prodigious abundance of the crops it had pro- 

 duced. The fields were literally covered with 

 the finest well-shaped, perfectly formed, solid, 

 smooth, bright red, uniform fruit, all free from 

 roughness and cracks, much larger than any 

 ever seen before. It was called then and 

 there "A winner" and it well deserved the 

 title. The Tomatoes are much larger and far 

 heavier than either the Greater Baltimore or 

 the New Century. By most careful re-selec- 

 tions for five years, we have thoroughly estab- 

 lished the purity and trueness of "My Mary- 

 land" Tomato, and are delighted to be the in- 

 troducer of a Tomato which from start to 

 finish is "King Of Them All." A real "Dou- 

 ble Yielder" that will be known as the best 

 second early and main crop Tomato the world 

 over in less than a year. Supply of Seeds is 

 limited. To be sure of securing some, place

Marvelous— 1000 Ciates Per Acre 



On June 23, 1912, Mr. J. W. Benson of 

 Te.ras, writes: "The yield of the 'My Mary- 

 land' Tomato that I purchased from you in 

 January has been tnarvelous. Think it would 

 carry' 1,000 crates per acre." 



Best On AU Points 

 Canebrake Agr. E.vp. Station, Uniontown, 

 Ala., Prof. F. D. Stevens writes: "Of the 6 

 varieties of Tomatoes tried here this year I am 

 disposed to think your 'My Maryland' BEST 

 of the lot. I base my conclusions on the yield 

 'My Maryland' holding its own with the others. 

 On the freedom from attack of rot {Fusarium 

 Erubeseens) it being practically free from the 

 disease, while varieties in rows adjoining haze 

 gi'ven way materially to its ra'vages especially 

 during the last week of rainy damp weather. 

 On its freedom from cracking of the skin 

 when fully ripe — other varieties presenting 

 more or less trouble from this, as after the rup- 

 ture is once formed in this climate moulds 

 start quickly spoiling its home use and local 

 market. I thank you for calling my attention 

 to this variety." 



Best In Maryland 

 Mr. JV. J. Jeffers, of Kent Co., Md., writes 

 as follows: "Your 'My Maryland' Tomato 

 Seed turned out better than any other Tomato 

 in our section." 



Good Crops Even In Bad Seasons 

 Mr. IV. T. Bosworth, of Xewport, Washing, 

 ton County, Ohio, writes as follows: "I want 

 to tell you about the 'My Maryland' Tomatoes, 

 the seed of which I bought of you last Spring 

 — / ha-ve been having lots of Tomatoes good 

 si:e and excellent quality, the 'vines bearing 

 from the ground to the top. N otzcithstanding 

 this has been an unfavorable season for toma- 

 toes, late frosts and prolonged dry weather have blighted other toma- 

 toes fearfully, but mine have stood up under the ad'verse conditions 

 remarkably well. If this had been a favorable season I don't believe 

 the vines would have held the fruit. In conclusion, I want to say I 

 wish you great prosperity in the seed business." 



Better Than Any Of Them 



New York Agr. Exp. Station. Geneva, N. Y., Prof. R. Wellington, 

 writes: "Very much pleased with 'My Maryland' Tomqto this sea- 

 son. Vines healthy, z'lgorous but not so rank as Liznngston's Stone. 

 Fruit large, smooth and firm, should make a good shipper as Zi'cll as 

 a good canning Tomato. Plants tested seemed to be identical in all 

 respects, and so there is no doubt that the strain has been carefully 

 selected. This variety should be of great -value for market as zcell 

 as canning purposes. IVe haz'e tested several z'arietics of Tomatoes 

 this past season and '^ly Maryland' Tomato has made as good a 

 showing, if not better than any of them." 



Short Jointed— It Forms Large Clusters At Every Joint 



Mr. J. A. Dean, of Beaumont, Texas, writes as follows: "Your 

 New Tomato, 'My Maryland,' proves to be a world beater. It is 

 without a doubt one of the finest and best cropping tomatoes to grow: 

 it has more good qualities than any other 'tomato, the plant being 

 short jointed and forms such large clusters of fruit at ez^ery joint, 

 the fruit being so uniform in shape and color, making it outsell any 

 Tomato on the market."
