leaves. Fruits average from 6% to 7% ozs. in weight, are globular i 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 ship- 
ping. The brilliant red color and excellent quality meet the requirements 
for juice and canning. Uncertified seed offered at the bottom of the page.

651 Maule’s Earliest of All % 
The favorite of all early tomatoes (56 days) 
Maule’s Earliest of All is the best early tomato for home gardens and 
market. Its extreme earliness is not its only merit, for the fruits are large, 
rich red in color, and extremely meaty. They do not crack, neither do they 
have a hard core. While a trifle irregular in shape, they are not rough. 
This famous tomato was intro- 
duced by Wm. Henry Maule in 1892, 
and in the half century since then it 
has never been surpassed for earli- 
ness. Countless thousands of satis- 
fied customers have grown this time- 
tested variety, and if you want a 
supremely fine tomato as well as the 
very first one in your neighborhood 
you must grow it, too. Pkt. 15¢;

licious flavor. Large, spreading plants

leaves. This tomato shows consider- 
able resistance to heat and drouth.

(66 days) This second-early, scarlet- 
red tomato can be grown success- 
fully in nearly all parts of this coun- 
try. Matures early enough to be of 
value to northern growers, while its 
quality makes it a desirable variety 
in sections having long growing sea- 
sons. Grown not only by home and 
early market gardeners, but by 
greenhouse operators as well. Plants 
are of medium size and bear an 
abundance of smooth, deep fruit, 
weighing 4% to 6 ozs. Uncertified
