Wisdom Tomato 



TVTfir<Slnr»P This new introduction by the U. S. 

 •"•••<"&WUc Department of Agriculture is with- 

 out doubt the most wonderful development ever offered 

 tomato growers. We quote the following desciption 

 given us by Dr. Fred J. Prichard, of the Bureau of 

 Plant Industry, U. S. Department of Agriculture. 



"In regard to the description of the Marglobe I would 

 saythat it is a very prolific, second-early, red-fruited 

 variety. It usually produces heavy yields of large 

 smooth, globular, meaty, red fruits. They have a de- 

 lightful flavor, and are covered with a thick skin which 

 hinders cracking. Moreover, the plants shade the 

 fruits well and thus protect them from sun-scald. 



The Marglobe is giving excellent results in both the 

 shipping and canning regions and gives much promise 

 of wide use within the next few years. In fact, after 

 one season's tests in southeast Florida approximately 

 1,000 cars were shipped the following winter. With 

 the exception of a few fields for a first early crop, Mar- 

 globe will be grown almost exclusively in this region 

 the present winter. Marglobe is giving excellentresults 

 in shipping and canning regions throughout the east 

 . / and middle west." 



I Marglobe has been developed primarily to resist 



/ wilt. In addition to this extremely valuable feature 



■j however, the variety has many other characteristics 



of merit. The heavy yields produced make this a very- 

 profitable variety to grow. Fruits average one half 

 , pound each, of a perfect globe shape, beautiful deep 



/ scarlet in color, and only mildly acid; vines grow vigor- 



ously without spreading, have abundant foliage fur- 

 nishing adequate cover for the fruits without too much shade, and 

 ripening its first fruits from 90 to 95 days. Marglobe is unsur- 

 passed for table use and canning purposes, and is worthy of careful 

 consideration of every tomato grower. Pkt., 25c; oz., $1.00; J4 

 lb., $3.25; lb., $12.00. 



\f dT\j\cn\(\ PriHo Since our introduction of it in 1905 it 

 IVlfiryijlIlU mUc nas been grown with great success 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, magnificent size and handsome, 

 smooth shape. The vines grow vigorously and produce abundant- 

 ly until killed by frost. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; li lb., 90c; lb., $3.00.
