★ THE LANDRETH 
(CERTIFIED)—100 Days 
This variet}^ is our own selection and is 
an improvement on the vast majority of 
those in the second early group. The 
fruits are large and solid. The external 
and internal color is a deep red, making it 
a good early canning tomato used exten¬ 
sively in New York. In 1936, at a test in 
Ohio, The Landreth produced a higher 
jdeld than the so-called Master Marglobe, 
Early Stone, Indiana Baltimore, Rutgers, 
New Stone, Nystate and Brown’s Special. 
The fruits were firm, and of good grade, 
and the vines were heavy and healthy. A 
grower in Bucks County produced over 10 
tons of fruits per acre last year.

LANDRETHS’ NO SUBSTITUTE—110 Days 
This is a veiy distinct vaiiety in vine characters, being of the potato leaf type. The foliage is dark 
green, and the leaves broad like those of the potato. The fruits are medium in size and flattish round. The 
color is red. Due to the heavy foliage which acts as protection from sunscald, this variety may be grown 
successfully where others fail. Pkt. 6 c oz. 60c J lb. $1.76 
★ LANDRETHS’ SUNRISE (CERTIFIED)—85 Days 
We believe this strain is superior to others in the Earliana Group. The vines are small and compact 
but produce an abundance of large, red, smooth fruits under good cultural and soil conditions. For best 
results, plant Landreths’ Sunrise on good soil, and closer in the row than larger vined varieties.

★ MARGLOBE (CERTIFIED)—100 Days 
This variety is undoubtedly the best of all recent 
introductions. It was developed, named and intro¬ 
duced by the late Dr. Pritchard, of the Bureau of 
Plant Industry, United States Department of 
.Agriculture, Washington, D. C. It has been vastly 
improved by us since its introduction by individual 
plant selection so that it is nearly perfect. It is 
globular in shape, deep red color, very little de 
pression at the stem end, has few seeds and does not 
crack readily. The blossom scar is very incon¬ 
spicuous. It has solid internal structure, no green 
core and is most productive, one of our ten acre 
fields in 1934 producing over 210 tons, that is at 
the rate of 21 tons of red ripe fruits to the acre. 
In 1936, six growers in Bucks County produced 
over 10 tons per acre with our Certified Marglobe. 
In Ohio, our Marglobe yielded I 5 tons more per 
acre than the so-called Master Marglobe. In this 
test it was stated that Landreths’ Marglobe had very 
nice tomatoes all through the season. It was their 
best variety. The vines are robust and as wilt- 
resistant as any variety we have ever seen. It
