460 The Bolgiano Tomato 



Introduced by Bolgiaiio of Baltimore in 1920. Be- 

 hind this tomato we have put our reputation of over 

 100 years, by naming it The Bolgiano, knowing that 

 as soon as it became known to our customers it would 

 make a place for itself at the head of the early varie- 

 ties of real merit. So far we have not been able to 

 produce enough seed to supply our demand. It is two 

 weeks earlier than Earliana, a beautiful, deep red 

 color, with skin that is tough enough to make it an 

 excellent long distance shipper. The flesh is solid, 

 sweet and tender, entirely free from tough green core, 

 and has no green streaks radiating from the stem end. 

 It has very few seeds, and no watery seed cavities; a 

 very heavy yielder of good size fruit throughout the 

 entire season, until checked by frost. The heavy 

 potato leaf foliage protects the fruit from sun scald 

 and blister. Equally profitable for canner and shipper 

 and most desirable for market and home gardener.

The Bolgiano Tomato 



Bolgiano's John Baer Tomato 



This extremely early tomato, introduced by us in 1914, is 

 still gaining in popularity, and is better today than it ever 

 was, due to our careful reselecting. It is a perfect, high crown 

 tomato, entirely free from core, an enormous yielder, setting 

 its fruit in clusters, ripens evenly up to the stem end, is 

 uniform with practically no misshapen uneven fruit. It will 

 not burst when dead ripe. Has a mild deliciously sweet flavor, 

 and is a solid mass of meat with very few seeds. It requires 

 from 6 to 8 bushels of fruit to make one pound of seed. John 

 Baer tomato has a brilliant glistening red color. Its skin is 

 tough which makes it a good shipper; this also is of decided 

 advantage to the canner as it can be removed quickly without 

 trouble and waste. It is a variety that will increase in fruit 

 production rather than foliage when heavily manured. Pkt.
