 a cross-bred variety originated by Mr. Howard Russ, a well-

More Good Words for Sparks' Earliana Tomato 



Frank Brandon, Triumph, La., Jan. 29, 1905, writes: "I have not seen in my 18 years of gardening anything equal to the 

 Earliana Tomatoes I had from you this year." 



Warren Emmert, Pikeville, Md., Feb. 15, 1905, writes; "I must have some more of your Earliana Tomato seed this 

 year. The latter part of July on 84 hills I picked nine bushels of tomatoes in one week. On several vines I had more than 

 100 perfect tomatoes. If any one can beat that I would like to hear from him."
