Bison Tomato. 
RED HEAD. This new variety 
is one of the very best second 
early sorts. As early as 
Chalk’s Jewel it is nearly as 
large as Stone. Very produc¬ 
tive, the fruits are nearly 
globe-shaped and very solid. 
Pkt., 10c; 34 oz M 25c; oz., 
40c; 34 lb., $1.25, postpaid. 
Last year I bought y 2 ounce 
of Bison Tomato Seed from 
you. We raised our plants in 
a hot-bed and got wonderful 
results. On July 2& I picked 
the first ripe tomatoes. We 
canned 500 quarts and had a 
total crop of 150 bu. of toma¬ 
toes. Prof. Yeager deserves a 
real compliment for having 
developed this self-pruning 
plant.

EARLIANA. Selected Early Strain. One of 
the earliest and best of the early varieties. 
It is very productive for an early sort. The 
fruit is fair sized, round, very smooth and 
solid and produced in clusters in the center 
of the plant. The color is a bright scarlet. 
You simply cannot beat our strain of this 
grand old sort. Pkt., 5c; oz., 30c; 34 lb.,

GOLDEN QUEEN. 
“Queen of All the 
Yellows.” It is very 
prolific, ripens early, 
and is solid, always 
smooth, entirely free 
from ridges, large in 
size and delicious in 
flavor. It is fine for 
slicing. Pkt., 10c;

PONDEROSA. A very 
large, solid meated, 
purplish-red tomato. 
It is a little late for 
the ordinary north¬ 
ern garden, but we 
list the earliest 
northern grown 
strain in response to 
a demand from 
southern customers and some northern gar¬ 
deners who wish to grow the largest toma¬ 
toes. Pkt., 10c; /2 oz., 25c; oz., 40c; 34 lb., 
$1.25, postpaid. 
AGASSIZ. The result of a cross between June 
Pink and Livingston Globe made and devel¬ 
oped by Professor A. F. Yeager of the North 
Dakota Agricultural College. It is slightly 
later than Red River, the scarlet fruits are 
larger and of very mild flavor. Professor 
Yeager says that “this variety has been the 
choice of the Superintendents of our substa¬ 
tions here in North Dakota during the. years 
they have tested it.” We found this a very 
satisfactory variety the past four Summers. 
Pkt., 15c; Vi oz., 60c.

Your Bison Tomato have anything beat 
for dry weather I ever saw. Grew it last 
year along side Ponderosa. Had three 
times the Tomatoes on one-third the vine 
as I had on Ponderosa.

CHALK’S EARLY JEWEL. Perhaps the best 
second early scarlet-fruited variety for the 
Northwest. Extensively used for canning and 
on account of its large size, excellent quality 
and productiveness a most satisfactory sort for 
the home garden. Pkt., 5c; 3£ oz., 23c; oz., 
35c; 34 lb., $1.10, postpaid. 
BONNY 7 BEST. Very nearly as early as Millet’s 
and Earliana, the bright deep scarlet fruits 
ripen more evenly than do those of any other 
early scarlet variety and are of superior solid¬ 
ity and interior color. A good yielder and 
most attractive in shape and color. This sort 
is coming rapidly to the front both for the 
home and market garden. Pkt., 5c; oz., 30c; 
34 lb., 90c, postpaid. 
YELLOW PEAR, This variety is used for pickling 
and preserves. It is delicate in flesh and flavor. 
Pkt., 10e; y 2 oz., 25c; oz., 40c, postpaid. 
WONHERBERRY—CARDEN HUCKLEBERRY. Not 
a true Huckleberry, but belonging to the same 
family as do Tomatoes, Eggplant, and Pepper, this 
is very productive of round, nearly black fruits, 
but little smaller than a Concord Grape. These 
fruits when fully ripe make excellent pies, pre¬ 
serves, and jam. Pkt., 10c; oz., 50c. 
June 22, 1933. 
Found a ripe tomato today of your Bison 
brand. Can you beat that!
