Bolgiano's "Victory" Tomato 



IL. 



This wonderful Tomato has been created by the World 

 Renowned Hybridizer and Tomato Seed SpeciaUst Mr. John 

 Baer. With his only son a soldier in France and with his 

 own heart heavy and sad, this great friend of the trucker and 

 market gardener not only did "his bit" but "his all" by 

 laboring incessantly during the four long years of the great 

 world war. Meeting failures and successes, he finally created 

 the marvelous "Victory" Tomato. 



Carefully considering all the grand, victorious points of 

 the "John Baer" Tomato and aU the splendid, strong, profit- 

 able points of the "Greater Baltimore" Tomato, Mr. Baer 

 set for himself the great task of merging the "John Baer" 

 Tomato and the "Greater Baltimore" Tomato together and 

 creating the most wonderful Tomato the world has ever 

 known. 



Mr. Baer has been crowned with success, as will be borne 

 out by the remarkable photograph of the "Victory" Tomato 

 above. Mr. Baer has created the most beautiful, the most 

 prolific, the most profitable, the most successful Tomato the 

 world has ever known. 



The vines eire full of vim, new life and health — entirely 

 free from wilt, blight and disease. 



The "Victory" Tomato is the product of two wonderful, 

 fuU blooded, healthy parent stocks. The new creation has 

 been selected and developed to reproduce the best qualities 

 of both parents. 



It would take many pages to tell about this marvelous 

 new Tomato, for it has never been equaled, but we give 

 below a few of its wonderful strong points and outstanding 

 good qualities. When you grow it you will say even more 

 good things about it than we have.
