STOKES VEGETABLE SPECIALS FOR 1932 



Stokes Super'Standard Bonny Best 



Days to maturity, 125. We look on this strain as the higliest development of Bonny Best we have to offer. We have 

 offered it since 1923 and in that time it has earned thousands of dollars for our customers. As its name implies, Super- 

 Standard Bonny Best is above and beyond the standard. We are growing our seed, this year, under ideal conditions and 

 as usual, the crop will be inspected by an official of the Bureau of Inspection, N. J. State Department of Agriculture. 



In some instances. Bonny Best has been more susceptible to disease under greenhouse conditions. This strain, how- 

 ever, is particularly vigorous and will succeed where others will not succeed. All of our present season's offering will be 

 taken from the 1931 crop. It is recommended for both greenhouse and for intensive field cultivation. This stock will 

 make an excellent account of itself wherever tried. 



Price:Pkt. $1; V20Z. $2.50;oz $4;y4lb. $15. . 



Lloyd Forcing and Blair Forcing 



Two New Greenhouse Tomatoes That Are Commercially Free from Fusarium Wilt 



Days to maturity, 125. These two Tomatoes were released last year by the University of Illinois, which has honored 

 us by asking that we reproduce them and take charge of the distribution. Both strains are the result of a cross between 

 Louisiana Pink and Grand Rapids Forcing. They are identical except that Lloyd Forcing is a scarlet Tomato and Blair 

 Forcing a pink Tomato. Growers will be interested in these strains: First, because of their almost complete resistance to 

 Fusarium Wilt, a disease which has caused losses of hundreds of thousands of dollars to Tomato-growers; secondly, 

 because these varieties are enormously productive, even under dark midwinter conditions. Neither Lloyd Forcing nor 



Blair Forcing is of any value as an outdoor Tomato, due to their 

 tendency of over-production, resulting in undersize fruits. 



Under normal greenhouse conditions, Lloyd Forcing (scar- 

 let) and Blair Forcing (pink) will produce Tomatoes 2^4 inches 

 in diameter, with a depth of 2 inches. This is an ideal winter 

 size. They ripen uniformly to the stem. The surface is smooth 

 and the flavor excellent. 

 Both stocks have been 

 grown by us privately in 

 New Jersey from stock 

 seed furnished us by the 

 University of IHinois. Wc 

 hope to have these stocks 

 inspected by Prof. Huelsen 

 or one of his associates.
