JOSEPH HARRIS COMPANY, INC., COLDWATER, NEW YORK 
Pritchard’s Scarlet Topper 
Also Called “Pritchard” 
Those who saw the crop growing on our farm 
this summer were greatly impressed with the 
great abundance of fine fruit on the vines. Our 
stock seed has been selected from the original 
seed sent us by the late Dr. Pritchard of the 
United States Department of Agriculture who 
originated this variety. We are growing the seed 
here in the North in order to maintain the size, 
vigor and earliness of this variety. 
The fruit is medium early, ripening right 
after Bonny Best. The flesh is very solid with 
few seed cavities and the brilliant red color goes 
right up to the stem. This variety is free from 
cracks which gives the grower a large percentage 
of No. 1 fruit. The quality is extra fine being 
mild and without acidity. 
The plants are robust but not of rank growth 
and bear heavily. 
Market Gardeners find this variety sells readily and is a very profitable one to raise. The 
grower for the roadside stand who has a “quality” trade will do well to make a planting of this kind 
as the customers will “come back for more” once they try it. 
Oz. 50c; lb. $1.50; lb. $5.00; 5 lbs. $22.50. 
Bonny Best —Harris’ Special Strain 
We are sure there is no finer strain of Bonny Best than the one we offer. It is all of our own 
growing from carefully selected plants. It will be found of the highest quality, producing the 
smoothest and most perfect fruit, a deep red color. 
Oz. 50c; M lb. $1.35; lb. $4.50; 5 lbs. $20.00. 
Canadian Tomato —An Improved Earliana 
We have grown and carefully selected this improved strain of Earliana which originated in 
Canada. From reports of growers and our own observations we are confident that this is one of 
the best all around early tomato where earliness, color, size and yield are considered. 
The fruit is smooth and well colored right up to the stem. It is as early as Earliana and slightly 
larger, yields enormous crops and the fruit is better colored than any other tomato of this class. 
We have a very fine strain of our own growing which we can highly recommend.
