"My Maryland" 



Bolgiano's Wonderful New Tomato 

 King of Them All. Has Surpassed the Best 

 Yielding Tomato in the World More Than 100%— 

 77. A Marvelous Double Yielder. 



Side by side it has produced tliree times the 

 crop produced by the Stone or New Century. It 

 has even doubled the yield of the Greater Balti- 

 more Tomato. 



The vast possibilities of this New Tomato are 

 astounding-. We believed in Greater Baltimore 

 Tomato the limit of productiveness had been 

 reached, but"My Maryland"so far outyields any 

 other Tomato ever grown that its retnarkable 

 productiveness is amazingr. People have driven 

 miles to see a field of "My Maryland" Tomatoes 

 and they all marveled at the prodigious abund- 

 ance of the crops it had produced. The fields 

 were literally covered with the finest well-shaped, 

 perfectly formed, solid, smooth, bright red, uni- 

 form fruit, all free from roughness and cracks, 

 much larger than any the.v had 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-selections for five years, we have thoroughly 

 established the purity and truenessof ''My Mary- 

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

 ducer of a Tomato which from start to finish is 

 "King Of Them All." A real "Double Yielder" 

 tliat will be known as the best second early and 

 main crop Tomato the v\orld over in less than a 

 year. .Supply of Seeds is limited. To be sure of

 Piof. F. D. Stevens 7vyil;s August 16,1911. 'Of 

 the6 varieties of Tomatoes tried hete this year I 

 ain dislioscd to thill /i your 'My Maryland' £1- ST 

 OF THE LOT. I base viy conclusions ON ThE 

 YIELD 'My jMarvland' holding its 07cmfilh tl:e

 OF ROT (Fusariuni Eriibeseens) it being irac- 

 tically free from the disease, white varieties in 

 rows adjoining have given luay materially to its 

 ra^'ages especially during the last week of rainy 

 damp weather. ON ITS FREEDOM FROM 

 CRA CKL\'G of the skin when fully ripe — other 

 varieties presenting more or less trouble fiom this, 

 as after the ruptvie is once formed in this climate 

 moulds start quickly spoiling its home use and

Turned Out Best In Maryland 



On September 1.1911, Mr. ]V. J. Jeffers of Kent 

 Co.. Md., writes as.follmvs: " I purchased some of 

 your ' My Maryland' Tomato Seed this Spring, and 

 they turned out better than any other Tomato in 

 our section." 



Good Crops Even In Bad Seasons 



On Aug. 22,1910, Mr. IV. T.Bosworlh of New- 

 port, Washington County, Ohio, writes as follo7i'^: 

 " I want to tell you about The ' My Maryland' To- 

 matoes, the seed of which I bought of you last 

 Spring — I have been having lots of Tomatoes good 

 sise and excellent quality, the vines bearing fiom 

 the ground to the top. Notwithstanding this has 

 been an unfavorable season for tomatoes, late frosts 

 and prolonged dry weather have blighted other to- 

 matoesfearfully, but mine have stood up under the 

 adverse 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 1 wish you great prosperity in the seed busi- 

 ness." 



Better Than Any Of Them 



New York Agr. Exp. Station, Geneva, N. Y. 

 Prof. R. Wellington, writes September 28, 1910. 

 "Very much pleased with 'My Maryland' To- 

 mato this season. Vines healthy, vigorous but not 



so rank as Livingston's Stone. Fruit large, smooth and firm, should 

 make a good shipper as well as a good canning Tomato. Plants tested 

 seemed to be identical in all respects, and so there is no doubt that the 

 stiain has been carefully selected. This variety should be of great value 

 for market as well as canning purposes. We have tested several varieties 

 of Tomatoes this past season and ' My Maryland' Tomato has made as 

 good a showing, if not better than any of them." 

 Yields Unusually Heavy 



Rhode Island Agr. Station, Kingston, R. I. Prof. S. C. Damon, 

 Director, writes Febi uary 27 ,1911. " Spring of 1910 I received a package 

 of My Maryland' Tomato Seed from you. The seeds were started under 

 glass and the plants were cultivated in the field under two methods. Part 

 were trained and tied up to stakes, and some were given field culture con- 

 ditions. The yield in both cases were ■unusually heavy, and the fruit was 

 exceptionally solid and satisfactory in all particulars. It ripened early 

 and continued over a long season, andon thewhole, wasvery satisfactory." 

 Fine Variety In Every Respect 



The Connecticut Agr. Exp. Station, New Haven. Conn. Pof. E. H. 

 Jenkins, writes September 25, 1910. " We found the 'My Maryland' To- 

 mato a fine variety in every respect. It grew vigorously, yielded well and 

 the fruit was large, fleshy andfirni. It is obviously a productive variety." 

 Short Jointed — It Forms Large Clusters At Every Joint 



Mr. J. A. Dean of Beaumont. Te.ras, on July 24, 1910, writes as follo-us: 

 " Your Neiv Tomato, 'My Maryland' bought from you last March proves 

 to be a "cvorld beater. It is without a doubt one of the finest and best civ ty- 

 ping tomatoes to grow; it has more good qualities than any other Tomato, 

 the plant being short jointed and forms suchlarge clusters of fruit at every 

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

 Tomato on the market. 



"My Maryland," Bolgiano's Wonderful New loniato 



"My Maryland" Goes Ahead Of Any Tomato 



Miles Raiisch of Plainfield, N. J., writes January 19,1911. 'My Mary- 

 land' Tomato goes ahead of any Tomato I ever greiv. I setoiit five hun- 

 dred of 'My Maryland' and five hundred of ' Greater Baltimore' side by 

 side last Sprin.c: and I find that 'My Maryland' Tomatoes 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 offru it on them." 

 "My Maryland" The Best In A Long Life Experience 

 Mr. L. Repman of Lawrence Co., Pa., on February 9. 1911, writes as 

 Jolloivs: "As your seeds are good, but advanced age is reducing my gar- 

 den 7vork, I am doing but little: but in Tomato, 'My Maryland' 'were the 

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

 Decidedly Disease Resistant 

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

 Sept. 28,1910. " We tried your neiv " My Maryland' Tomatoes alongside 

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

 .az'ety desirable sort. Comparedwith others, it is decidedly disease resistant 

 and a heavy yielder. The fruits are large, smooth and quite regular, 

 ripening very evenly.''

Kansas State Agr. Cotle.iie, IVahattan, Kan. Prof. Albert Dickens 



writes September 26,1910. "We have been delighted with the showing 



made by your New Tomato,' My Maryland.' It is still in full bearing ,

 of the Tomatoes -were large and firm. I like '.1/j- Maryland' Tomato
