smooth, solid, bright 
second early Tomato; 
The largest purple fruited Tomato in culti- 
vation; very solid and of finest quality. 
Manns’ Improved Stone This variety has at- 
tained great favor with 
canners and market gardeners everywhere. Its solidity and 
carrying qualities are remarkable. Its color is a desirable 
red; in shape perfectly smooth, and thicker from stem to 
blossom end than most varieties, making it most handsome 
and salable. 
> , In developing this wilt-proof strain 
Wilt Resistant the plant breeder has made his se- 
jiections from a strain of the very highest quality in points 
of production, size, flavor, weight, thickness of skin and 
color. A very profitable main crop sort. 
Second Early and Main Crop Varieties 
Different entirely from all the new cross 
Pemberton breeds of the Marglobe, Break O’Day and 
Scarlet Topper types and not to be confused with any of 
them. Pemberton is a large, solid, smooth, deep oval 
shaped, main crop variety of a brilliant scarlet color all 
through; it yields a heavy crop commanding highest prices 
for either market or packing house purposes. 
Our stock of this extremely popu- 
Marglobe Special lar variety is far superior to the 
average and we have received many unsolicited testimonials 
complimenting us on its excellent quality. 
It produces heavy yields of large smooth, globular, 
meaty, red fruits. They have a delightful flavor, and are 
covered with a thick skin which hinders cracking. More- 
over, the plants shade the fruits well and thus protect 
them from sun-scald. 
e . The last intro- 
Scarlet Topper or Pritchard (he, last | intro: 
late Dr. Pritchard and considered by many to be superior to 
his Marglobe. It is a self-topping disease-resistant sort, 
heavily productive, of good color and in appearance almost 
identical to Marglobe. Highly valuable for market garden 
use, for shipping and packing. 
, Since our introduction of it in 1905 
Maryland Pride it has been grown with great suc- 
cess by canners and market gardeners, who pronounce it “the 
very best second early and main crop Tomato they have ever 
grown.” The fruit is a beautiful bright red color, magnifi- 
cent size and handsome, smooth shape. The vines grow vig- 
orously and produce abundantly until killed by frost.
