Bolgiano's "Baltimore Baer" Tomato 



This wonderful Tomato has been created by the World 

 Renowned Hybridizer and Tomato Seed Specialist Mr. John 

 Baer. W€th 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 "Baltimore Baer" Tomato. 



Carefully considering all the grand, victorious points of 

 the "John Baer" Tomato and all 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 "Baltimore Baer" 

 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 are full of vim, new life and health — entirely 

 free from wilt, blight and disease. 



The "Baltimore Baer" is the product of two wonderful, 

 full 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. 



1st. The "Baltimore Baer" is the most beautiful shaped 

 Tomato the world has ever seen. 



2nd. The "Baltimore Baer" Tomato is free from core. 

 It produces all perfect high crown fruit. 



3rd. The color is a startling, beautiful, brilliant red. 



4th. The fruit is firm, solid and heavy. Crowded full 

 of delicious meat. 



5th. The "Baltimore Baer" Tomato ripens perfectly 

 right up to the stem. 



6th. The development is perfect, smooth and even at 

 both stem and blossom end. 



7th. Absolutely no waste. 



8th. Entirely free from wilt and blight. 



9th. The "Baltimore Baer" Tomato ripens a little later 

 than "John Baer" Tomato, but earlier than "Greater Balti- 

 more" Tomato. 



10th. It is a marvelous yielder. The abundance of its 

 crops will amaze you. 



11th. The flavor is distinct, mild, refreshing and delicious, 

 entirely free from any stinging or biting acidity. 



12th. Produces heavy crops of fine fruit when other 

 varieties are complete failures. 



Every ounce of our very limited supply of seed has been 

 personally grown by Mr. John Baer, and each Tomato has 

 been selected by him and the seed saved with his own hands. 

 Our supply of seed is necessarily a very limited one this 

 season, and in order to secure some of this wonderful Tomato, 

 we urge you to mail us your order immediately. You will be 

 delighted with your crops and receive big profits.
