EXTRA NEWS! 
America’s Newest Tomato 
THE GRAND 
“PENN STATE” 
The newest and greatest accom¬ 
plishment of Dr. C. E. Myers, fa¬ 
mous Plant-Breeding Expert 
of the Pennsylvania State 
College of Agriculture and 
Experiment Station. 
Offered for the first time 
New and entirely different from all 
others in its compact, determinate habit of 
growth, allowing close planting, thus 
greatly increasing the yield. Its great 
clusters of perfect Tomatoes literally cover 
the strong, robust plants, making possible 
yields of 20 tons per acre when the plants 
are set 27 inches apart in the row and the 
rows 3 feet apart. 
The rather coarse and medium dark 
green foliage covers well the fruit which is 
formed in clusters, as many as ten clusters 
to the plant. 
It is a rich scarlet, evenly colored and 
beautiful, being unusually free from 
blemishes. Matures almost as early as 
Penn State Earliana, and is far superior to 
that variety in shape and yield. The in¬ 
terior is a dark red, with very little core, 
which is shallow. It has very few seeds. 
Its earliness is a very valuable feature. 
Last year 4 tons to the acre were harvested 
115 days after the seed was sown in the 
greenhouse. 
The New “Penn State” Tomato will be planted 
this year in almost every country in the world. We 
have already received orders for seed of it from practi¬ 
cally everywhere. 
It is offered now for the first time, in official packets (containing approximately 50 seeds) at 25 cts. per pkt. 
You may order as many packets as you desire, as long as they last. There are just 250,000 packets for the entire 
world distribution. Order yours at once, and order enough packets to give you sufficient plants to pro¬ 
duce a large crop, for it is going to prove very profitable to you. Pkt. 25 cts.; 2 pkts. 50 cts.; 4 pkts. $1; 
6 pkts. $1.50; 8 pkts. $2; 10 pkts. $2.50; 20 pkts. $5; 40 pkts. $10.
