Tomatoes for Forcing 
★ Those starred are resistant to Tomato Wilt 
In the Greenhouse each tomato plant should produce at least 18 lbs. of fruit 
to pay for space occupied. It is therefore important that nothing but those 
yielding heavy crops should be used. We have selected the best strains possible 
for production, quality and resistance. 
★ Urbana (pink) for fall forcing. Pkt., 25c; oz., $1.00. 
Resembles Livingstons Globe in type of fruit. 
★ Blair (pink) and Sureset (pink) are very similar in all respects and good pro¬ 
ducers in spring. Both are globe and resistant. 
★ Lloyd (red) and Long Calyx (red) are quite similar and both heavy yielding, 
the Lloyd may be a little heavier. 
The above all produce heavier than Marglobe another resistant type. 
All above, Pkt., 25c; oz., $1.00.

weather yet produces a heavy crop. A red tomato smooth and very pro¬
