Also Called “Pritchard” 
Pritchard’s Scarlet Topper Tomatoes 
This new tomato has proved itself to be a grand main crop 
variety. It combines in one kind vigor of vine, high yield, good 
size, beautiful color, firm meaty fruit and excellent quality. 
The fruits of Pritchard’s Scarlet Topper are medium 
to large in size, round, of brilliant red color through¬ 
out, thick of flesh, firm and with but small seed 
cavities. They color perfectly right up to the 
top without any hard green spots, and in our seed 
crop the fruit showed less cracking than any 
variety we have ever grown. 
The quality is very fine, being mild and free 
from acidity. With us this variety matures only 
a few days later than the early kinds such as 
Bonny Best and John Baer. 
The plants are strong, of sturdy but not rank 
growth and produce a large yield of fine fruit. 
Home gardeners should not be without this 
valuable kind in their garden. Market gardeners 
and growers for roadside stands where quality 
counts will find this a profitable variety to raise.

Giant Summer Straightneck Squash 
This new summer squash has now almost entirely replaced the old crookneck 
type, in both home and commercial gardens. It differs from the old Crookneck 
only in shape; the “neck” instead of being curved is straight. 
This new strain is more attractive in appearance and is much easier to pack 
in crates or boxes. The fruit is of large size, and of clear light yellow color. 
We have succeeded in breeding up a strain which produces almost all straight 
squash and is much superior to most of the seed which is sold today. 
Our crop this year was exceptionally fine both in quality and large yieldand 
the seed we offer can be relied upon to give the very best results.

Delicious Muskmelon 
“The seasons are so short here between frosts that I have never been able 
to ripen canleloupes until this year. I planted your Delicious and ripened 
them all. They were good size and the quality fine. 
I also raised a good many different kinds of tomatoes but Break-O-Day 
and Pritchard's Scarlet Topper are the best I ever raised. My whole garden 
was planted from your seeds except potatoes and I am going to get them 
from you next spring." D. R. Cole, Sheffield, Pa. Sept. 11, 1933. 
“We found your seeds abso¬ 
lutely perfect last year and we 
particularly enjoyed the Delicious 
muskmelons which were the finest 
flavor of any muskmelons we ever 
tasted." S. M. Sargeant, 
Worcester, Mass., Apr. 28, 1933. 
BENDER’S SURPRISE. The best Large Melon for Home and Market, (see opposite). 
DELICIOUS. The Earliest Large Melon, (see below). 
SUGAR ROCK. The Finest Quality Small Melon for Market and Shipping, (see opposite). 
Each of these varieties is the leader in its class, and our strains are without doubt the best 
obtainable. They will give you a splendid assortment for the home garden or Roadside Stand. 
Delicious Muskmelon —The Largest and Sweetest Early Muskmelon 
This new melon is rightly named—it is certainly delicious and what is more important it is 
early. It ripens two weeks earlier than Bender’s and three weeks before many other kinds. 
The melons are quite large, averaging 5 lbs. or more; of oval shape, creamy yellow out¬ 
side when ripe and covered with fine netting. The flesh is moderately firm, deep orange 
and of very high quality, being sweet and delicious. 
The combination of earliness, high quality and good size is not 
found in any other melon with which we are acquainted. 
This melon will not keep as well as Bender’s Surprise or Sugar 
Bock but for the home garden and roadside stand this variety 
has the advantage of earliness and fully as high flavor. Growers 
will do well to plant some of this kind. 
We offer seed of a true strain of our own growing.
