STOKES SEEDS ARE STANDARD 



SPINACH 



OLD DOMINION (New) 



Blight resistant. For late fall or very early spring. 



Days to maturity, 50. We are indebted to the Virginia 

 Truck Experiment Station for this new hybrid. A Vir- 

 ginia Savoy X King of Denmark hybrid, it possesses the 

 blight resistance of the former and the longstanding 

 habit of the latter. The foliage is dark bluish-green and 

 is evenly savoyed except at the leaf tips. The growth is 

 compact and slightly flatter than Virginia Savoy, and it 

 is two weeks later in shooting to seed. As it makes a 

 slower growth in the fall than does Virginia Savoy, it 

 is not recommended for a fall cutting. It should be 

 sown, therefore, only in the late Fall or in the early 

 Spring for Spring cutting. We look on this as a valu- 

 able acquisition to our list. Price Postpaid: Oz. 5c, 

 1/4 lb. I5c, Lb. 50c, 5 lbs. @ 45c per lb. Not Prepaid: 

 10 lbs. @ 35c per lb, 25 lbs. @ 30c per lb, 100 lbs. @ 

 25c per lb. 



DARK GREEN BLOOMSDALE 



Darker shading gives plants fresher appearance. 



Days to maturity, 40. The rich, dark color of this new 

 strain strongly recommends it over the standard Re- 

 selected Bloomsdale. Although not quite so longstanding 

 as the Longstanding Bloomsdale, it remains much longer 

 in marketable condition than the standard Savoy type. 

 On the other hand, it will mature just as early as the 

 Reselected Bloomsdale. 



Price Postpaid: Oz. 5c, 1/4 lb- 15c, Lb. 50c, 5 lbs. @ 

 45c per lb. Not Prepaid: 10 lbs. @ 25c per lb., 25 lbs. 

 @ 25c per lb., 100 lbs. @ 20c per lb. 



FORCING TOMATO 



SUPER-STANDARD BONNY BEST 



A deeper, larger, and nnore productive Bonny. 



Days to maturity, 125. We look on this strain as the 

 highest development of the Bonny Best we have to 

 offer. In the ten years Super-Standard Bonny Best has 

 been offered to the public it has earned thousands of 

 dollars for our customers. As its name implies, this 

 Super-Standard strain is above and beyond the standard. 

 It is recommended for both greenhouse and for intensive 

 field cultivation. This stock will give an excellent ac- 

 count of itself wherever tried. 



Price: Pkt. 50c, 1/2 oz. $1.25, Oz. $2.00, 14 lb. $7.50. Post- 

 paid. 



LLOYD FORCING AND BLAIR FORCING 



Two greenhouse tomatoes free fronn Fusarium Wilt. 



Days to maturity, 125. These two tomatoes, released two 

 years ago by the University of Illinois, are the results 

 of crosses between Louisiana Pink and Grand Rapids 

 Forcing. They are identical except that Lloyd Forcing 

 is a scarlet tomato and Blair Forcing is a pink tomato. 

 They are of interest to greenhouse men because of their 

 almost complete resistance to Fusarium Wilt and be- 

 cause they are enormously productive under dark, mid- 

 winter conditions. They are of no value as outdoor to- 

 matoes due to their tendency to overproduction result- 

 ing in undersized fruits. Price: Pkt. 50c, oz. $1.25, 

 Oz. $2.00, 14 lb. $7.50. Postpaid.
