Marglobe 
Tomato 
TOMATO 
One ounce produces 1,000 to 2,000 plants 
PRITCHARD or SCARLET TOPPER. 
This is a new, medium large, very 
red, smooth, meaty globe variety 
with erect, medium dense vines. It is a very heavy cropper, requiring rich soil, well 
fertilized. Ripens just after Earliana and before Marglobe. The mild-flavored flesh 
is red throughout, very firm, with thick inner walls. A cross between Marglobe 
and Cooper’s Special, and fine for market and early-season canning. 
SELECTED EARLIANA. 
Excels all of the ordinary strains of Earliana. The 
fruits are deep scarlet, almost perfectly round, very 
solid, with a very small core and few seeds. They mature very early and uniformly 
in prolific clusters near the center of the plant, borne on strong, vigorous vines. 
MARGLOBE New midseason hybrid from Marvel and Livingston’s Globe. 
u * Entirely immune from rust and wilt. Pure scarlet, globe-shaped, 
with the size and fine qualities of Livingston’s Globe but earlier and a heavier 
cropper. Valuable for canning and marketing due to its remarkable solidity. 
nmiRI F PITRPnQF This productive hothouse variety, trained to one stalk 
V/U LE UmViJL. with 10 clusters, yields 10 to 12 pounds per plant in 
the spring crop. Picking begins 75 days after setting plants. Still more remarkable, 
however, [is its suitability for outdoor culture on stakes, to meet the growing call for 
hothouse-size Tomatoes through the outdoor season. The fruits, 4 to /the pound, 
are round, slightly flattened, smooth, firm, and brilliant orange-scarlet. 
f’OMFT Best known for green- 
_ * house but often staked 
outdoors. The fruits, in clusters of 
6 or 8, are bright scarlet, smooth, 
solid, and 3 to inches across.

lymnniu. deep round>solid fruits

field culture, setting 5 clusters and 
pinching tops. Plants yield 6 to 
8 lbs. In greenhouse, vines reach 
10 feet with 12 fruit clusters.

early, between Earliana and Chalk’s 
Early Jewel. Fruits are medium¬ 
sized, bright scarlet, smooth, round 
shape, and ripen evenly.

vana, with the color, size, and nearly
