In reply beg to state that no tomato upon our 

 experimental grounds has given the satisfaction 

 that we have gotten from "Greater Baltimore. " 

 It is early, prolific, hardy, of excellent 

 quality and is fruiting longer and more satis- 

 factorily than anything else we have. 



We thank you for calling our attention to 

 this fine fruit. It should be largely planted 

 by vegetable gardeners as well as for other 

 commercial and family purposes 

 Yours truly,

 I am glad to be able to state that the 

 ''Greater Baltimore'' Tomato has proved 

 extremely promising the present season. 

 ''Greater Baltimore'' along side of Crimson 

 Cushion and Ponderosa has proved as large as 

 the latter and as solid and symmetrical as the 

 former. That is saying a great deal for it. 

 We have picked this season dozens of specimens 

 of ''Greater Baltimore'' weighing over 30 ounces 

 and several exceeding two pounds. I enclose a 

 print of one of the latter, which tell3 its 

 own story on the scale. I believe that you 

 have a good thing in this variety. 

 Very truly yours, 



Srpartmrnt nf Agrirullurr anu Exprrtmrnt Station 



J. N. Harper, Director 



I am pleased to state that the tomato seed 

 you sent me of the ''Greater Baltimore'' has 

 proven itself to be a very valuable vegetable 

 for our climate. They were quite prolific, 

 and the fruit was very handsome. 



Thanking you, I remain 



Yours very truly.
