TESTED SEEDS FOR THE SOUTHERN PLANTER 
19 
High Grade Tomato Seed 
1 oz., 2,000 plants; Yk lb. per acre. 
CULTURE—Seed should be sown in January in hotbeds, or in boxes, 
which must be placed in a sheltered spot near windows. In March they 
can be sown in open ground. Tomatoes are generally sown too thick and 
become too crowded when two or three inches high, which makes the plants 
thin and spindly. If they are transplanted when two or three inches high, 
about three inches apart each way, they will become short and sturdy, 
and will not suffer when planted in the open ground. 
YELLOW PEAR TOMATO—This is an attractive small-fruited tomato 
of typical pear shape. The plants are enormously productive and the small 
fruits make excellent salad or may be used for marmalade. They are 
sweet and delicious. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 2 ozs., 65c; Yk lb., $1.00, postpaid.

tion. Plants are “compact in growth, but short, close-jointed branches, 
setting fruits very freely. The Tomatoes are uniform in size, fleshy, solid

ness. The enormous, well-shaped, purplish pink fruits measure 15 to 
18 inches in circumference and weigh 3 pounds or more. They are nearly 
all meat, have few seeds, and are absolutely without core. The flavor
