653C Rutgers (certified stock) 
Remarkable for its large size and solidity (74 days) 

































Rutgers was developed at the New Jersey Agricultural Experi- 
ment Station. It has proved ideal for the requirements of New 
Jersey growers and its use has spread to other sections as its value 
became known. At present Rutgers is one of the foremost market 
and canning varieties in the entire country, and is especially 
popular in the East and South. Like most tomatoes of commer- 
cial importance, it is highly disease-resistant and practically free 
from the attacks of fusarium wilt. Plants are large and vigorous, 
with heavy stems and coarse, dark green leaves. Fruits average 
from 6% to’7™% ozs. in weight, are globular in shape, slightly 
flattened, having well-rounded shoulders and a very small blossom 
end scar. A most solid interior and heavy walls make it suitable 
for shipping. The brilliant red color and excellent quality meet 
the requirements for juice and canning.

Competes with Earliana; self topping (62 days) 
_ Developed by Dr. Meyers of Penn State College. Of the self- 
_ topping type, the vines produce short thick stems and rather 
coarse, medium dark green foliage. Owing to the compactness of 
these vines, the plants may be set closer together, in rows 3 ft. 
apart and 18 to 24 in. apart in the rows. The medium sized, 
__ scarlet-red fruits are borne in clusters of 4 to 6 on the entire plant 
_and are smooth, slightly flattened and solid, with small seed cay- 
_ ities. Of superb quality and exceedingly desirable for both market 
_ and home use.

plantings against all hazards. Each Hotkap is an individual greenhouse,

sects, as well as frost. You can save on the cost of insecticides, keep the 
earth properly mulched, and beat your neighbors’ gardens to maturity with 
this one simple device. Protects early plantings of tomatoes, cabbage, corn, 
beans, melons, peppers, etc.

conditions.
