125 FINE LARGE, SOLID MEATY TOMATOES TO A SINGLE PLANT. 



Your" Greater Baltimore''' Tomato I planted last season, is the finest I have ever planted. I shipped about 800 crates from 1 3\4 acres, some 

 sold in Boston by J. D. Mead & Co. for $3.00 a crate. I recommend it unreservedly to the growers of this section. I planted five different varieties and 

 the " Greater Baltimore" led them all. You can put me down for " Greater Baltimore'' next season. Yours very truly,

Bolgiano's "Greater Baltimore" Tomato. 



After another season has passed, and the "Greater Baltimore" Tomato has been grown in almost every state in the Union, and in many Foreign 

 Countries it is almost impossible to give a description of its merits without seeming to claim for it Supernatural Powers; so in describing it, we will, 

 as far as practical, confine ourselves to extracts from the experience of those who have grown the "Greater Baltimore" the past year. 



A Florida man writes "It is the finest Shipping Tomato ever sold, — tested side by side, and shipped side by side with five leading varieties — 

 it beat them all." Another writes "Out of 15 Red varieties it was the best of all." "Very prolific— it yielded from 300 to more than 500 bushels of 60 

 lbs. per acre." One man raised 17,000 plants from Vt. lb. of "Greater Baltimore" Tomato seed. "Vigorous grower," strong healthy plants. Fruit 

 uniform in shape and size,solid,large, very regular, smooth, shapely, fleshy, very meaty, ripens well and evenly. Beautiful bright red color, fruit very 

 handsome, dozens weighed 30 ounces, and several exceeded 32 ounces. Seed planted a month later than "Duke of York" produced shipping fruit 

 two weeks before that variety was ready. "Fine crop in bad season." Excellent keepei — has kept until New Year's Day. Rust and blight-proof. 

 Recommended unreservedly by a grower for "the section around Lakeland, Fla." Had proved better than any variety tried at Picton, Canada. 

 "Stands the heat and drought of Mississippi." "Very valuable for South Carolina climate." In the canning districts of Delaware and Maryland 

 "yielded a fine crop in a bad season." Texas says there is no better tomato in size and taste on the market; not an acid tomato — very fine flavored. 

 As a home garden Tomato "The results have been far beyond expectations." On our own table we sliced the "Greater Baltimore" tomato like we 

 would slice a fine tender roast of beef. We have tried to grow enough seed to go around this year, but to be on the safe side, you had better order 

 immediately. 



The" Greater Baltimore" was something to marvel at. Extra Large, 

 immense yielder, rust and blight free, beautiful color, and the best of all 

 red tomatoes tried here among fifteen varieties. Same season as the 

 Chalk' s Jewel but decidedly better. Our Fall " Greater Baltimore" plants 

 are standing the heat and drought fine. Vety truly yours,

Bolgiano's "Greater Baltimore" that I purchased from you is the best 

 in our neighborhood. T. McCLEARY WILES,

I think your Greater Baltimore Tomato beats them all so far. 

 Aug. 29, 1906. J. H. FORT, Wildwood, Fla. 



I want to continue my praise of the Greater Baltimore Tomato, and to 

 add after pulling them in October I had them on my table almost coniin u- 

 ously until New Year's Day.wlien I had the last. They are a fine 

 "keeper," and easy to ripen by degrees. N. CARROLL DOWNS,

Mess. f. Bolgiano & Son. Baltimore, Md, 



Gentlemen: — I sowed in hot-beds, seed of your "Greater Baltimore" 

 Tomato , and it came up prof usely . I sold some of the plants, and set out 

 about one-third of an acre. They ripened nearly as soon as an early 

 variety that was planted beside them, and I had a fine crop in this bad 

 season. By the judgment of others, the patch bore five hundred (500) 

 bushels to the acre, and WE THINK they bore much more. To-day, 

 November 21st, we ate some from same planting, which were ripened in 

 our cellar. They are very meaty, and of large size, pleasing both whole- 

 sale and retail buyers. We shall grow them again. Yours very truly , 

 ARCH'D STERLING, Wilna Farm. 



At this date, Sept. 26, 1906, your "Greater Baltimore" Tomato is still 

 bearing and I do not think there is a better Tomato in size or taste on the 

 market. I wish to get more of your tomato seed for the coming season. 

 Sept. 26, 1906. L. M. KNIGHT, Carnzo Springs, Texas. 



Your " Greater Baltimore" Tomato proved as represented by you. I 

 planted with care and watched them carefully. I picked two weeks off of 

 them before I did off of the Dukes and planted seeds nearly a month later.
