Maulers Tomatoes 



Extra Early Varieties 



Ready for Use in 80 to 85 Days 



1 



Every garden should have an early as well as a main or general crop of tomatoes. Either for market or home use, the idea of growing 

 early tomatoes Is to get them as soon as possible and follow up with the main crop, which may be used in many ways and are especially desirable 

 for canning. Do not plant in over-rich soil as it will cause an over-growth of foliage and few fruits. 



Culture. — Sow the seed in February or March in a hotbed, greenhouse or in shallow boxes in the house in rows 4 to 6 inches apart and half 

 an inch deep. When the plants are about 2 inches high transplant to 3-inch pots or into shallow boxes 4 inches apart each way. Transplant 

 In the open ground after all danger of frost is past, 3 to 4 feet apart each way. Cultivate frequently. A pacliet will produce about 100 plants,, 

 an ounce about 8,500 plants, enough for an acre. Ready to pick in 80 to 120 days.
