Pritchard or Scarlet Topper Tomato 



The Last and Most Wonderful Achievement in Wilt Resistant Tomatoes of 

 the Late Prof. Pritchard of the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture 



This tomato, the result of the most recent and scientific 

 research in Wilt Resisting Tomatoes has been secured by 

 crossing Marglobe with Cooper's Special and combines the 

 best quality of each. 



It is a mid-season main crop variety, producing a heavy 

 crop of deep scarlet globe shaped fruits. The fruits are of 

 good size, extremely heavy with thick walls, uniform and 

 borne in clusters. The inside color is a beautiful deep red, 

 which makes it very desirable as a canning sort. 



The vines are of rugged growth and medium height with 

 an abundance of foliage to protect the fruit from sun scald. 



The Pritchard or Scarlet Topper Tomato is outstanding 

 for home and market gardeners' use as well as for long dis- 

 tance shipping.

257. Break O'Day Tomato 



The Most Recent Perfection 

 in Tomatoes 



Break O'Day Tomato 



Globe Shaped — Every Good Quality of the Marglobe — 

 Two Weeks Earlier Than Marglobe 



This wonderful tomato was originated by the late Dr. 

 F. J. Pritchard of the Bureau of Plant Industry, U. S. 

 Department of Agriculture. 



Break O'Day is a hybrid from Marglobe and other 

 earlier tomatoes. It possesses all the wilt and disease 

 resistance of the Marglobe, but ripens very nearly as 

 early as the Earliana or at least two weeks before the 

 Marglobe. It is the only Extra Early Tomato of a deep 

 globe shape, with few seeds and with the solidity of 

 Marglobe. It is an extremely good shipper and ripens 

 very red. It has foliage similar to the Earliana. Its 

 especial value will be to the market gardener in enabling 

 him to put a large crop of excellent quality globe-shaped 

 tomatoes on the early market. It holds well during the 

 hot weather and is an abundant yielder throughout the 

 entire season. No' acid, just full of deliciously sweet, 

 beautiful red meat. We can highly recommend Break 

 O'Day to market gardeners, kitchen gardeners and can- 

 ners. Pkt. 10 cts.; Vz oz. 25 cts.; oz. 45 cts.; Va lb. $1.35; 

 lb. $5.00, postpaid. 



275. The Bolgiano Tomato. The Potato Leaf To- 



mato. Blossoms continually. Every vine is just loaded with 

 perfect red solid tomatoes all during the season. The Bol- 

 giano Tomato is tvvo weeks earlier than Earliana. First fruit 

 just as perfect as the prime fruit of the season. The heavy 

 potato leaf foliage protects the fruit from sun scalds and blis- 

 ters. The large stem set clusters make it a profitable tomato 

 for the grower. Never have we received such acknowledg- 

 ments from any of our own creations as we have the "Bol- 

 giana" tomato, Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 30 cts.; >4 lb. $1.00; lb. $3.50.
