HALL'S PREMIUM TOMATOES 
CULTURE —Sow in hotbeds in January and February and trans¬ 
plant into another bed when two inches high. When weather 
becomes warm and settled, transplant in rich, light soil, four 
to five feet apart; or sow end of April in open ground and trans¬ 
plant in open ground when six or eight inches high. They may 
be supported either by stakes driven into the ground, or may 
be left to spread over the ground. One ounce will produce! 
about 2,000 plants; four ounces will plant an acre. 
WILT RESISTANT TOMATOES 
If your ground is infested with wilt, your only hope of growing 
tomatoes is to plant one of the wilt-resistant varieties—no 
others can be grown on wilt-infested land. Spraying will not 
correct it, for it is a fungus that lives in the ground and in¬ 
vades the plant through the roots and kills it. The losses to 
Southern growers have been enormous—so serious that the 
United States Department of Agriculture has worked over the 
problem for years, and has developed several wilt-resistant 
strains. Norton and Norduke we regard as their best, and our 
seeds were grown from seed stocks supplied by them. 
MARCLOBE (NEW) 
The Wilt ami Nailliead Rust-Resistant Sort 
Developed by the Agriculture Department and thoroughly tested 
in sections where the above diseases are very destructive. The 
Marglobe was produced by crossing the Livingston Globe with 
one of more other varieties, and after seven years of careful 
selection, we are adding it to our list this season. It is a 
vigorous grower whether in greenhouse or field. A bright red in 
color, of large size, almost round, and very productive. It will 
take the place of many other varieties in greenhouses and sec¬ 
tions of the country where wilt prevails. It will pay to try 
the Marglobe, even if you are not bothered with Tomato dis¬ 
eases. It is very promising. 
The seed of Marglobe which we are offering was grown from 
planting stock supplied by the originator. The quantity is 
quite limited. Pkt. 5c; oz. 35c; Vi lb. $1.25; lb. $4.00. 
NORTON WILT RESISTANT —Norton was developed from the 
Stone, ripens at the same season, and can be classed as a wilt- 
resistant Stone, but a more abundant bearer and the fruit are 
more solid. It yields a heavy crop of large, smooth, solid red 
fruits that ripen slowly, therefore is a good keeper and a good 
shipper; it is also remarkably drought resistant. An excellent 
tomato for the home garden, for canning and for the late 
market. Pkt. 5c; oz. 40c; Vi lb. $1.25; lb. $4.00. 
BREAK o DAY 
The New Early Wilt-Resistant Tomato 
BREAK O'DAY —Early Wilt resistant variety, large, solid, glob¬ 
ular scarlet fruits. One of the best of the disease resistant 
varieties developed by the late Dr. Pritchard. About 10 days 
earlier than Marglobe. Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; Vi lb. $1.50; lb. $5.00. 
PRITCHARD —Mid-season, scarlet fruited sort, which is resistant 
to Fusarium Wilt and to Nail-Head rust. Vine vigorous and

EARLIANA (Spark’s) —The earliest and best of the very early 
tomatoes; very productive for an early sort; fruit of fair size, 
round, very smooth and solid and produced in clusters in center

on this stock has made it unequalled today. Pkt. 5c; oz. 50c; 
Vi lb. $1.25; lb. $5.00.

toes. Vines are vigorous and immensely productive; fruits very

as early as Earliana; a vigorous grower and enormously pro¬ 
ductive of smooth, round, globe-shaped fruits; color intense 
velvety, glowing scarlet. Tomatoes ripen evenly to the stem,
