In Market Gardener's Field Tests. I. X. L. Tomato proved to be a week to ten days earlier than the Spark's Earliana, 

 with an abundance of fruit larger and more prolific than Chalk's Jewel: in fact, any number of specimens could be found as 

 large as the Great B. B. Tomato. It has little more vine and leaves than the Wealthy Tomato, thus protecting the blossoms 

 from being easily knocked off by heavy rains or winds; also protecting the fruit from being simburned or scalded. The I. X. L. 

 Tomato is without a single exception one of the Leading Extremely Early Tomatoes and while many of the most experienced 

 Tomato growers tell us we cannot say too much in favor of this excellent Early Tomato, there 6ire many who have not yet 

 grown it. To them, we say again, you are not experimenting when you plant the I. X. L. Tomato. We stake our reputation 

 on I. X. L.

 gives me very great pleasure to inform you that in spile of unfavorable wealher 

 conditions here last season the I. X. L. Tomato yielded a large crop of well- 

 shaped, well-flavored Tomatoes. They are way ahead of any other varieties I 

 know."

 I. X. L. Tomato Seed turned out fine. We could not want anything belter. 

 They are a great yielder and a great money maker. I shall order more of the

Bolgiano's New "Early Spring" Beet 



ILe 



The First Beet in Market, Where it Commands Fancy Prices 



Bolgiano's New "Early Spring" Beet has now been given a trial by all the 

 leading market gardeners. They have been wild in their praLse of its wonder- 

 fully good qualities. It was the first Beet in market, where it commanded the 

 fancy prices. Most perfect in shape and beautiful deep red color. It is much 

 earlier maturing than Crosby's Egyptian and is of a much finer grain. Has a 

 very small lap root, also top not being quite as large as Crosby's Egyptian. 

 Even in maturing, that is. all the Beets can be pulled one week after you start in 

 pulling. Can be sown under gla.ss and transplanted outdoors or sown in the 

 open field and will mature much earlier than Crosby's Egyptian. Bolgiano's 

 New "Early Spring" Beet is the result of years of reselecting and improving, 

 resulting in, we believe, the earliest and best Beet on the market. Seed is very 

 scarce. It will pay vou handsomely to give it a trial. Pkt. 10c. Oz. 25o.

Can Certainly Recommend New Early Spring Beet 



On October 20. 1919, Frank C. Herlzler, of Camp Hill, Cumberland Co., Pa., wrote: "In regard 

 to your Bolgiano's New 'Early Spring' Beet, I can certainly recommend it with pleasure as being the 

 most uniform in both color and shape and it remained nice and tender to the last Beet. If you wish 

 to plant a good Beet, try it." 



Fine Crop New Early Spring Beet in Bad Season 



On September 25, 1919, Fred. Deerr, of New Brunswick, Middlesex Co., N. J., wrote: "In 

 regard to Bolgiano's New 'Early Spring' Beel Seed I purchased from you, I wish to say that I planted 

 it while the weather was very cold and during the time it was growing it was very wet, but they had a 

 brilliant color and a delicious flavor and others to whom I gave them say the same thing. We are stilt 

 gelling Ihem at this time and intend to can the last uf them, as they are as tender as the first."
