Harris’ New York State Certified Tomato Seed 
For years we have made a specialty of growing tomato seed of the best possible quality here in 
the North on Moreton Farm, from carefully selected pedigree stocks. Now for the second year we 
are pleased to offer our customers Certified Tomato Seed. 
All our tomato seed crops which we grew this year were entered for certification. The fields 
were carefully inspected by experts from Cornell University on behalf of the New York State Seed 
Improvement Association, which is the official seed certifying agency of the State, and have fully 
passed their high requirements for purity and freedom from disease. 
Our careful methods and growing tomatoes for seed only, the way we do, costs us more but 
we feel that we should do everything in our power to furnish only the best possible seed that can be 
obtained. The results our customers get make it well worth while. A few ounces of seed will 
plant a large plot of tomatoes. Insist on getting only the best regardless of price. It will repay 
you many times over. 
NYSTATE (New) 
Early, Thick Mea ted, 
Heavy Cropper 
Growers and canners 
here in Western New York 
who had this new variety 
last year were most favor¬ 
ably impressed with its 
fine qualities. 
NYSTATE was orig¬ 
inated at and introduced 
by the New York State 
Agriculture Experiment 
Station, primarily as a fine 
canning variety for here in 
the North. We believe it 
also has great possibilities 
as a market tomato. 
The tomatoes are of 
a slightly flattened globe 
shape, very smooth, resist¬ 
ant to cracking and an 
excellent deep red color which extends all through the fruit. The flesh is solid and of outstanding 
fine flavor, being very mild and sweet. NYSTATE ripens about the same time as John Baer and 
is an exceptionally heavy producer. We think growers will do well to give this new kind a trial. 
Certified Seed of our own growing. See prices on page 32.
