DwarRF CHAMPION TOMATO. 
Dwarf Champion... 
This is a purple fruited variety, which forms very stout, 
strong plants, about two feet high. The branches are short, mak- 
ing a bushy plant that stands quite erect without stakes. This \< 
sort is often sold as Tree Tomato. Fruit smooth, medium sized, » 
color purplish-pink, fairly solid, but has no hard core, and is of 
good flavor. About as early as any purple fruited tomato, and is 
quite popular in some localities, both for market and home use.

The dwarf habit of the vines makes it very desirable 
for forcing, as it can be planted closer to the glass, and 
more closely on the bench, than the tall growing kinds.
