 Delaware Beauty, 100 days— The 



Delaware Beauty was introduced by Landreth in , 3 » 

 the autumn of 1912. The following autumn of 

 1913 we could not fill thedemandfor seed. A showy, 

 medium-sized red sort, as deep red as Landreths' 

 Red Rock. Vine compact, deep green, blight re- 

 sistant, thick stemmed, extraordinarily productive. 



One week later than Chalk's Jewel, one week 

 earlier than the Landreths' Red Rock, and two 

 weeks earlier than Stone. 



Fruit smooth all over, almost entirely free from 

 splits, a most distinguishing quality, very uniform 

 in size and showy. Of a habit of simultaneously 

 coloring up all over the fruit. Shape slightly 

 flattish at blossom end, quite .globular at stem or 

 crown end, no depression whatever at stem end, 

 the illustration showing that it is unusually full 

 on top — a most desirable quality, absolutely no 

 waste. 



Its habit of ripening a week ahead of the 

 Landreths' Red Rock and two weeks ahead of 

 Stone is most desirable. A productive sort has 

 long been looked for to come in ahead of these Delaware Beauty 



two late varieties. Canners especially are asked 

 to observe this most profitable character. It, 



like all other Landreth-grown Tomatoes, can only be bought in sealed litho- L b. X Lb. Oz.

Earliana, 90 days. — Very early. Habit of vine dwarf and compact. Fruit borne 

 in clusters of from 10 to 15 in a bunch. A remarkable variety and one which is 

 in great favor among Market Gardeners and Canners. Planted almost exclu- 

 sively as a first early , 4.75 1.30 50 



Greater Baltimore. — A main crop as a fruiter more reliable than Stone, because 

 earlier, larger and more productive. Fruit produced in cluster, form heavy, 

 ripening evenly, a continuous cropper. Fruit free from any kind of blemishes w - 



and very reliable. Vine sturdy remaining in full vigor until frost 4.75 1.30 50

John Baer. — A very early sort. Productive. Similar to Chalk's Jewel 5.25 1.55 55 



Landreths* Ever Large, 110 days. — So named because 



the fruit keeps its size from the first to the last ripening. An exceedingly 



productive sort, three-quarters of the quantity of fruit weighing over one pound. 5 . 00 1 . 50 50 



Landreths' Bloomsdale. — A wagon load of the Landreths* Bloomsdale Tomato is 

 as showy as a load of scarlet roses. It ripens 95 to 96 days af fcer the germina- 

 tion of the seed, the Earliana, the earliest Tomato of any size, being only a week 

 earlier, but the Earliana is somewhat flat and convoluted while the Landreths' 

 Bloomsdale is far superior, being plump and smooth and a continuous picker, 

 while the Earliana is not, nor do we make any comparison whatever between it 

 and the Earliana except alone to indicate its period of ripening, for in tonnage 

 it is at least 50 per cent, a larger cropper than the Earliana, consequent upon 

 its everbearing quality. 



It is most admirably adapted for a canners' . sort, being unusually _ large, 

 round, smooth, very meaty and crackless, not losing much weight in skinning, 

 a repeater in fruiting, consequently a heavy picker each time, or in other words 

 a constant picker of a long-drawn-out season. V 



We have picked it five times at intervals of ten days, that is 50 days of pick- 

 ing, which indicates that it is a dabster — a money-maker. 



The habit of the plant is particularly hardy, being free from disease both at 

 stem and fruit. 



The Ohio Experimental Station in Bulletin No. 28, April, 1918, reports the 

 Bloomsdale as picking 18 tons per acre in comparison with the Stone at 5a tons.35 .00 9 00 3 . 00
