Tomatoes 



MAIN CROP— PINK VARIETIES 



f- r r\T>TJ An outstanding variety; most valuable purple 

 vJi->v-H>C Tomato. Commencing- to bear in early mid- 

 season, it produces an enormous crop of handsome, dis- 

 tinctly globe-shaped fruits of the very finest quality. On 

 light or sandy soils the yield is considerably reduced, so 

 we recommend Globe particularly for medium and heavy 

 soils, under 'which conditions it is sure to satisfy the most 

 critical of Tomato growers. As a home-garden Tomato 

 it is unexcelled, being suitable for salads, stewing, can- 

 ning — in fact, for every purpose. 



BEAUTY. A productive main-crop variety; fruits of good 

 size, smooth, solid, never cracking; quality excellent. 



BUCKEYE STATE. With the exception of Ponderosa, this 

 is the largest-fruited purple variety; late but a very 

 heavy yielder, especially on river-bottom land. Smooth 

 and meaty; purplish crimson in color. 



OXHEART. It is no doubt an off-spring of the Ponderosa 

 family. It is not a heavy cropper and not suitable for 

 g-eneral farming but more adapted to gardens where it 

 can be staked up and also for any one wanting to grow 

 prize tomatoes, as it grows enormous sized oxheart shaped 

 fruits which are of a purple color, having a very thick 

 flesh of excellent quality and very few seeds. 



TRUCKERS' FAVORITE. A purple-fruited counterpart to 

 Stone. Extremely productive; fruits large, solid, smooth 

 and of the finest quality. A few days later than Beauty 

 but a heavier cropper. 



PONDEROSA. The largest of all Tomatoes, regardless of 

 color. Properly grown, a single plant will often bear from 

 20 to 30 large fruits, generally in clusters of three, each 

 cluster weighing from 1% to 2 pounds. 



EABXY DETROIT. Follows June Pink; firuits larger, uni- 

 formly smooth and well-colored. A good producer on any 

 soil. 



Improve Your Tomato Crop 



To obtain best results and hasten maturity of your 

 Tomato crop, turn under either manure, peat moss or 

 sod in your beds and at planting time add Superphos- 

 phate. Where these materials have not been turned under, 

 excellent results will be secured by using a complete 

 fertilizer such as 4-12-4 or 5-10-5.
