IJ ve_ tried oxit a !ot °f different varieties of Tomatoes and I’ve 
discarded all but the best of thenr. These varieties are the nick of 
the lot, over a period of the last 40 or 50 years. My seed stocks 
are extra select, pure, uniform, and 
they have to he right. Plant both 
early and main crop sorts, so you 
will have plenty. ■« 
EARLY VARIETIES 
401 RED HEAD. I introduced 
Red Head a good many years 
ago. Since then we have 
been constantly working on 
it, to make it better. 1 will 
put it up against any other , 
early variety. It is a heavy 
yielding sort, bears over a 
long time. The tomatoes are 
round and smooth, they ripen 
evenly, and very seldom 
crack. The firm flesh makes 
it a fine canning sort. Price: 
Pkt. 10c; y 2 oz. 20c; oz. 35c; 
l A lb. $1.00.

early tomato I ever found. It is another one of my own introductions.

color is a beautiful bright red. It is a dandy in every way.' Price:

402 FIELD’S EARLY JUNE. Another good extra early one. Not as

earliness. Medium size, rounding, flat, dark red, fine for slicing.

MAIN CROP VARIETIES 
413 SCARLET CLUSTER. (See front page 
picture.) The finest tomato grown. Has 
everything that all other good sorts have 
and a lot more good points that many do 
not have. Good size, round, brilliant, scar¬ 
let red color throughout. Thick flesh with 
small seed cavity and very firm. This to¬ 
mato ripens perfectly up to the top. No 
hard streaks or core, and no cracks. Good 
for canning or any way you want to use 
it. Price: Pkt. of 25 seeds 20c; y 2 oz. 60c; 
oz* $1.00. 
417 RUTGERS. I found this one in New Jersey. After trying it out 
here for a couple of years, I am ready to believe that it deserves a 
place in every garden. It starts ripening on the inside, and you 
can depend on it being thoroughly ripe all the way through. Doesn’t 
have a hard core, and is outstanding for its uniform deep red color¬ 
ing. Flesh is firm. Globe shaped. An excellent canning variety. 
Price: Pkt. 10c; y 2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; X A lb. $1.25. 
415 NEW STONE. A great main crop variety for canning and general 
use. Solid, smooth, ripens evenly, bright scarlet, a good yielder. 
Price: Pkt. 5c; y 2 oz. 15c; oz. 25c; V4 lb. 80c. 
409 OXHEART. Entirely different from 
any other kind of tomato. Large, heart-' 
shaped, pink-skinned variety. The flesh 
is thick, but very tender. It has few 
seeds. Somewhat late, and a great deal 
after the style of Ponderosa. Has a dis¬ 
tinct, appealing, mild flavor. Price: Pkt. 
10c; y 2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; *4 lb. $1.25.

Marglobe 
405 MARGLOBE. Another dependable 
wilt-resistant main crop. Vigorous 
grower, medium large, nearly globe 
shaped, smooth and solid.. The qual¬ 
ity is extra fine, and it is an outstand¬ 
ing tomato for canning. Deep scarlet. 
Price: Pkt. 5c; y 2 oz. 15c; oz. 25c; 
H lb. 80c. 
418 PONDEROSA,. Here’s one 3 >'ou 
just can’t beat. It is too tender 
and doesn’t hold up well for mar¬ 
ket, but for home use there’s 
nothing like it. The fruit is large, 
sometimes inclined to roughness, 
but very tender and meaty. 
Slices beautifully with few 
seeds. Vigorous grower. Price: 
Pkt. 5c; y 2 oz. 20c; cz. 35c; 
H lb. $1.00. 
412 GOLDEN BEAUTY. Large, 
main crop yellow variety. Quite 
a novelty, but well worth hav¬ 
ing. I like it. It’s smooth, me¬ 
dium size, mid-season to late, 
fine for preserves, or for table 
use. Price: Pkt. 5c; y 2 oz. 15c; 
oz. 25c; ^4 lb. 80c. 
419 YELLOW PEAR. The old- 
fashioned pear-shaped yellow 
variety, so popular for pre¬ 
serves. The fruit is very beau¬ 
tiful, and is borne in clusters. 
Price: Pkt. 5c; y 2 oz. 15c; oz. 25c; 
y* lb. 80c.
