grown for seed at Pennsylvania State Agricultural Experiment Station. This shows how the great

A GRAND NEW TOMATO, THE PENN STATE. A most 
valuable new variety developed and perfected by Dr. C. E. Myers, 
widely known plant-breeder of Pennsylvania State College. 
We are indeed highly honored on this, our Silver Anniversary, 
by Dr. R. L. Watts, Dean and Director of Pennsylvania State College 
School of Agriculture, and Dr. C. E. Myers, Professor of Plant¬ 
breeding, in entrusting to us the exclusive distribution of this very 
wonderful new Tomato, the Penn State. 
It has been brought to perfection after seven years of intensive 
breeding-work by Dr. Myers who began its development by crossing its 
female parent, Self-Pruning, and its male parent, Penn State Earliana. 
The new Penn State plants are very compact, of determinate 
growth. The fruit, formed in clusters, is a beautiful rich scarlet, 
nearly globe-shaped, extra early, almost as early as Penn State Earli¬ 
ana and far superior, with dark red flesh and very few seeds. A 
tremendously heavy yielder, every plant loaded with great clusters 
of perfect Tomatoes; 20 tons per acre are possible. (See general list 
of Tomatoes for additional information about Penn State.) 
I urge you to be sure to grow this extraordinary and valuable new 
variety. The new Penn State is offered in packets containing 
approximately 50 seeds for 25 cts.; 2 pkts. 50 cts.; 4 pkts. $1; 
6 pkts. $1.50; $ pkts. $2; 10 pkts. $2.50; 20 pkts. $5.
