TOMATOES -Continued 
Isbell’s 1936 Best Mam Crop 
Our Contribution to More and Better Tomatoes 
. The handsome, large, brilliant red fruits of this new variety come 
pretty close to perfection in tomatoes. They are nearly round, 
slightly flattened, with thick, solid, meaty flesh and comparatively 
few seeds. They are medium early and continue to bear throughout 
the entire season. They have a wonderful rich mild flavor and hold 
their color and flavor well when cooked or canned. This also makes 
them an ideal variety for tomato juice. For salads and slicing they are 
unexcelled. The plants are vigorous and produce an enormous quan¬ 
tity of large smooth fruits with practically no culls. If you grow 
tomatoes, either for your own use or for market here is a variety 
that will reward your efforts generously. Pkt., 15c; -Vis ©z., 30c; ©z„,

Early Marketeer 
First Introduced in the North¬ 
ern Part of Michigan 
It is one of the earliest, 
handsomest, and heaviest bear¬ 
ing Tomatoes in cultivation. The 
fruits are of medium size and a 
good marketable size is retained 
throughout the entire season. It 
is always smooth, of bright scarlet 
color; firm flesh, few seeds, and 
ripens evenly. Excellent in quality, 
being mild, pleasant, and of de¬ 
licious flavor. An excellent sort 
for market and shipping. Pkt.,

Marglobe — Wilt Resistant 
For Main Crop—Shipping and Canning 
Its fine appearance, great productiveness, deep globe shape, 
fine scarlet color and superb table qualities are giving it first 
place wherever it is known. The Tomatoes are heavy, meaty 
and almost coreless. In color it is a most beautiful scarlet, 
ripening well up to the stem. A very productive variety suit¬ 
able for truck growing, shipping and canning. For the home 
garden we like it very much. Marglobe is a medium early 
sort; the plants are of robust and erect growth, its foliage 
shading the fruit and preventing sunscald. Marglobe is re¬ 
sistant to “nail-head rust.” Ripens 10 to 12 days later than 
Earliana. The seed we offer was grown by ourselves here in 
Michigan, from seed furnished by Prof. Pritchard of the U. 
S. Government Experiment Farm. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; 14 lb.
