Days from setting 
plants to 
marketable fruits 
BREAK O’DAY _ 70 
Originated by the late Dr. F. J. Pritchard, of the United States 
Department of Agriculture in 1930. A cross of Marglobe and Mar- 
vana, resistant to Wilt and Nail-head rust. Plant light, of open, 
spreading habit, with medium foliage; early and very prolific. 
Fruits medium large, orange-red, uniform, globe-shaped, smooth; 
walls not as thick as in Marglobe. The yellow cast in color, and 
light vine growth are drawbacks to this variety.

Ours is one of several excellent strains of this important variety 
which has been bred for tricker, smoother fruits. Vine is open, 
spreading, medium small. Fruits flattened, medium sized, firm, 
bright red, quite smooth. 
John Baer _ 70

lent for gardeners serving local markets and for canning. Vine of 
medium height and open growth. Fruits medium sized, semi- 
globular, very attractive bright scarlet-red, smooth and quite firm. 
We have an exceptionally early strain.
