STOKES SEEDS ARE STANDARD 



EGG PLANT 



IMPERIAL BLACK BEAUTY 



Rich, handsome fruits. Phomopsis-free. 

 A very profitable strain. 



Days to maturity, 115. Loss from the organisms of 

 Phomopsis Rot has been serious in many districts. The 

 disease sometimes comes from infected soil, but unless 

 the grower starts with disease-free seed he takes unnec- 

 essary risk. Our Imperial strain has been grown under 

 conditions that make us morally certain that the seed 

 is free from these organisms. Customers in the Lower 

 Rio Grande Valley have experienced unusual results 

 with this excellent strain of Black Beauty.

NEW YORK SPECIAL 



Early. Heavy yielding. Black, glossy color. 



Days to maturity, 125. Growers who are in search of 

 what is probably the very finest strain of New York 

 Improved can plant this stock with the assurance that 

 comes with over ten years' personal selection. The con- 

 scientious work that has been done is responsible for a 

 heavier and earlier yield and a richer and deeper color 

 combined with a greater resistance to wilt and other 

 diseases. The distinguished heredity of the strain will be 

 immediately recognized by experienced growers.

ESCAROLLE 



STOKES DEEPHEART 



Early. Broader leaf. Deep, well-blanched heart. 

 Replaces Broad Leaf Batavian 



Days to maturity, 100. The brilliant appearance of this 

 special strain of escarole has earned a definite place for 

 it in the important Sanford, Florida, district. The head 

 will grow considerably larger than most competing 

 strains. The leaf is broad, thick, slightly wrinkled, and 

 easily blanched. We consider this to be the very best of 

 the broad-leaved type. >
