STRAIN EIGHT has been in the course of development for three seasons. We are now 

 offering it as a strain of Stokes Master Marglobe that is larger but not so deep as 

 Strain Six, described on page 11. What this strain does not have as a shipping type is 

 more than made up for as a cannery type. The size will average an ounce heavier and 

 the ratio, depth to width, will average 10% lower in Strain Eight. The old beauty of form 

 and interior solidity long known in Stokes Master Marglobe will still be found in Strain 

 Eight. Other characteristics are about the same except that there will be a slightly 

 heavier vine-growth to Strain Eight which, in turn, means about four days later in 

 maturity on an average. 



It is difficult to over-emphasize the strong qualities of this variety for the manu- 

 facture of Tomato juice: Its color is a bright red; its flavor is unusually sweet and 

 pleasant; and it is practically free from any blossom-end scar. 

 As is the case with any thick-wall variety, including Rutgers and Stokes Master Marglobe, there is some 

 radial cracking. Apparently we are far from conquering that source of trouble. 



To the manufacturer of Tomato products, or to the man who is growing Tomato products for the cannery, 

 we know of no finer strain of Tomato than Stokes Master Marglobe, Strain Eight.
