THIS TOMATO has been successful in the 

 South where it has done particularly well as 

 a fall crop. It has not been successful in the 

 North and is not recommended for northern 

 production. One factor in the popularity of 

 Grothen's Globe is its large size. The fruit will 

 average considerably larger than Marglobe, 

 although it approaches it in neither its per- 

 fection of form nor its excellent interior. The 

 fact that it is earlier in maturity is also important 

 in some sections. 



Grothen's Globe has some resistance to fu- 

 sarium wilt and nail-head rust. Its vine-growth 

 is distinctly open. Our stock has been examined 

 by the originator and has been approved. It has 

 also been given a certified rating by the New 

 Jersey Department of Agriculture.

GLOVEL is a pink Marglobe. It has been per- 

 fected by William F. Porte, of the United States 

 Department of Agriculture, from the F. J. Pritchard 

 cross of Livingston's Globe X Marvel. The result 

 is a Tomato slightly earlier than Marglobe, and be- 

 cause it has no yellow pigment in the skin, the 

 exterior color is pink. It is new to most of the trade 

 and has, as yet, not had wide acceptance. The stock 

 we offer has been grown in the North and is certi- 

 fied. It is a pure type of Glovel, and one which 

 can be very highly recommended. If you desire a 

 productive type of pink Tomato, plant Glovel. 



The average resistance of firm, ripe Glovel fruits 

 to crushing stresses was 13.4 pounds, slightly 

 higher than for Marglobe. Glovel developed color 

 in storage at 70° F., on ratio of 72% as against 

 49% for Marglobe at end of one week.
