TOMATOES—Continued. 
THE PRITCHARD. (Scarlet Topper). A wonderful new bright red tomato de¬ 
veloped by the late Dr. Pritchard of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. 
Pritchard has Marglobe blood in it and carries many of the good qualities of 
that wonderful variety. Color of scarlet with dark red flesh, medium size and 
solid. Received Gold Medal, Southern Seedsman’s Association in 1932. A won¬ 
derful new tomato. 60 days. Pkt., 10c; V% oz., 25c; oz., 40c. 
MARGLOBE. One of the very best of all recent introductions. Similar to Globe 
but larger. More productive, smooth and red. About a perfect tomato. Wilt- 
resistant. This is an exceedingly prolific tomato and produces fine uniform 
fruits. Pkt., 10c; % oz., 20c; oz., 30c. 
PONDEROSA. 120 days. A purplish pink variety that is a most universal favorite. 
A large tomato and very prolific. Unsurpassed for its fine qualities for slicing 
as it is large with very thick flesh containing very few seed cavities. As a 
home use tomato it is unsurpassed where a mild-flavored tomato is desired. 
Very little acid. 
HUSK TOMATO or GROUND CHERRY. Not a true tomato. Small round yellow 
fruits borne singly and enclosed in a thin papery husk. Very sweet. Nothing 
equals sauce or pies made from it. Pkt., 10c.

Golden Sunshine. 
Turnips and Rutabagas 
Turnips do best in a rich soil. They must be sown either very early in 
the spring or around August 1st, as they do not do well grown in the 
heat of summer. 
PURPLE TOP STRAP LEAF. 48 days. More generally planted than any other 
variety. A rapid grower; flesh is very fine, white, and sweet. A large 
flat turnip mostly white with the top of the root a deep purple. Pkt., 10c. 
SHOGOIN or JAPANESE FOLIAGE. 42 days. Adapted to table use for both 
the roots and also the tops for greens. Supplies large edible leaves and 
round pure white roots of the finest cooking qualities. Especially popular 
in the South. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; lb., 25c; lb., 75c. 
RUTABAGA, AMERICAN PURPLE TOP. The standard variety grown for 
home, market, and stock. A great storing variety. Roots large, globular, 
deep purple-red above ground, light rich yellow below. Short neck. 
Flesh of finest texture, light yellow, fine flavor. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; *4 lb., 25c; lb., 75c. 
GOLDEN SUNSHINE. 76 days. This is another great corn from Prof. 
Yeager. It is just about a week earlier than Bantam. We think the world 
of it. It is ready for table use about half-way between Gem and Bantam. 
The quality is just as good as that of Bantam and the ears are half again 
as large. The stalks are tall and generally carry 2 big ears, nearly as 
large as those of Stowell’s Evergreen. Light yellow, very productive, 
and very sweet. It comes into eating condition over a long period of 
time, making it an ideal home garden corn. 
Pkt., 15e; y z lb., 30c; lb., 50c. 
GOLDEN BANTAM. 83 days. We are particularly proud of our strain of 
Golden Bantam, that good old golden sweet corn, which cannot be ex¬ 
celled. We have grown this corn as we have our other corns with the 
utmost care under our personal attention and are proud of its purity 
and general evenness of type. Good even sized ears, large deep kernels, 
and rich golden corn. There is no corn sweeter than Bantam. 
Pkt., 15c; lb., 30c; lb., 50c. 
Golden Bantam. 
Sweet Com 
Our Sweet Corn is grown right here in Southern Minnesota and mostly 
right on our own farms where the utmost care is taken that the different 
kinds are far enough apart so that there is no danger of mixing. 
We have been growers of Sweet Corn for years and take pride in offering 
to our customers a grade of corn that for quality and purity of strain 
cannot be excelled. 
To grow good Sweet Corn get the seedbed into the best possible condi¬ 
tion before planting. Plant good seed, give the corn frequent and thor¬ 
ough cultivation until the tassels come. One pound will plant from 200 
to 250 hills. 
GOLDEN GEM. 70 days. This is an extra early yellow sweet corn originated 
by Prof. Yeager of the North Dakota 
Agricultural College. It is the best 
real early sweet corn we know of. 
It is from 10 days to 2 weeks earlier 
than Bantam, with ears nearly as 
large, and quality nearly as good. 
The ears of most real early sorts are 
too small and the quality poor but 
this is not true of Early Golden Gem. 
Pkt., 15c; y 2 lb., 30c; lb., 50c. 
A COMPLIMENT 
Altamont, N. Y., Sept. 12, 1934. 
The seed I bought from you this spring was the best seed I ever pur¬ 
chased. The Golden Bantam corn and beets were entirely satisfactory. 
I’ve been buying corn from-<— for the past 8 years but it was nothing 
like your corn. Yours was 2 weeks earlier and every hill was so uniform 
in height. Yours truly.
