_ The EnormousTomato, 
bred by Mr. Miesse, was 
first introduced to the 
ublic in my catalogue 
r 1899, having been sent 
ut the previous year in 
packets fortrial,under the 
name'‘EHight to the Yard” 
‘It was a great success, 
great in every way, and it 
is eyen greater now than 
at the outset. Originally, 
8 to the yard, in 1899, a 
/ number of tomatoes were 
raised 7 to the yard, while 
r. Edward §. Smith, 
royveport, O., reports last 
year 6tothe yard. Enor- 
!mous, however, was not 
' bred merely for bigness ; 
! T also claim it is the best 
‘all round, main crop to- 
_mato on the market, and 
only surpassed for ship- 
ing purposes by the

selected from the fact that 
seemed to apply better 
an any other. The actua

comparative trials with other sorts, under ordinary conditions,

ber of tomatoes are tried side by side 
every year, I had the satisfaction of 
being told that Enormous was not ex-

; prices for all he could raise, his custo- 
ss] mers were so pleased with it. Another 
writes for canning purposes it 1s 
unsurpassed by any other known 
sort. And, finally, truckers of 
N long experience, after reviewing its 
various attributes, say it is the best
