CROWN PICKED MARGLOBE (CERTIFIED) —100 Days 
This seed is identical to the Certified Marglobe, except it is obtained from the first 
or crown set fruit and is the result of seeds selected from the earliest fruit set on the vines. 
This seed is treated with a poison which gives the seed a slightly greenish tinge and 
helps its growth. It also protects the seed from adverse weather conditions.

MARGLOBE (CERTIFIED) —100 Days 
This Tomato is undoubtedly the best of all recent introductions. It was named 
and introduced by the late Dr. Pritchard, of the Bureau of Plant Industry, United States 
Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. It has been vastly improved by us every 
year since its introduction by individual plant selection so that it is as nearly perfect as 
it is possible to obtain. It is Globe in shape, deep red all over, very little depression at 
the stem end, has few seeds and does not crack. No mark at all is at the blossom end. 
It is solid, no green core and most productive. The vines are robust and wilt-resistant as 
much as any variety we have ever seen. It possesses everything desirable in character 
and a most attractive Tomato in every way. This Tomato is similar in shape to old 
well known Globes 
but larger, and in¬ 
stead of being pink 
as Globes, is Red. 
The Norther n 
market much prefers 
a Red Tomato to a 
Pink. The growers 
have been using a 
Pink Globe because 
they could not get a 
Red. It has been 
found to be the best 
Tomato which can 
be grown in Florida 
and the South for 
shipping to northern 
markets. We recom¬ 
mend the Marglobe 
to take the first place 
with Market Gar¬ 
deners, Kitchen Gar¬ 
deners and Canners. 
The Seed which we 
offer is all grown by 
us and is a product 
of Seed originally 
obtained from the 
late Dr. Pritchard, 
and is absolutely 
correct, This variety 
will be more gen¬ 
erally cultivated dur¬ 
ing the summer of 
1934—as it is the 
most profitable of 
all sorts. We cannot 
say too much for 
this strain of To¬ 
mato and we hope 
all our customers will 
order it. See page 
75 for uncertified 
Marglobe seed.
