TOMATOES 
CULTURE—Plant seed in box inside or in hot¬ 
bed from February 15 to March 1. Transplant May 
10 to 20; rows 6 feet wide and 5 to 6 feet in rows; 
use light loamy soil, well cultivated and fertilized. 
* GILL’S SELECTED EARLIANA — For 28 
years we have given personal selection to this strain 
and believe we now have the largest and smoothest 
first early tomato yet offered. The fruit is of bright 
deep red color, rather thick from stem to blossom 
and unusually solid. Our selections are making 
rapid and decided improvements in this variety 
and nearly all the fruit will pack number one 
grade. Owing to the fact that it is a shy seeder 
we must ask more for the seed than other sorts. 
Do not confuse this with the ordinary strains of 
Earliana. Reports from several large growers claim 
this is the best strain of Earliana they have tried.

ease resistant. The best for home canning. Pkt.

*PEPPER TOMATO—We have selected this for 
several seasons and now have large, smooth fruit 
ideal for market. It is very resistant to rain cracks. 
We claim it is one of the finest tomatoes we have 
ever tasted. Practically every fruit is smooth, run¬ 
ning from globe to oblong shape, and they are 
exceptionally solid, containing very little seed. The 
fruit is red with a purplish tone and the sweetest 
of any we have tried, being unusually free of acid. 
It produces heavy yields and is quite early. Pkt. 
10c; *4 oz. 40c; oz. $1.00. 
MARGLOBE—This new tomato is almost the 
same season as Bonny’s Best, but the fruit is larger. 
It is very resistant to disease and is a very heavy 
cropper. Marglobe is also a fine greenhouse variety. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 45c; % lb. $1.25; lb. $3.75. 
*BONNY’S BEST EARLY (Certified Seed)—Ow¬ 
ing to its great uniformity this makes a popular

scarlet tomatoes, which ripen about two weeks after 
the Selected Earliana. We carry an extra fine 
strain of this popular market gardeners’ tomato. 
It is also popular for greenhouse growing. Pkt.
