age, fruits crowded in clusters of 6 to 10 
over the entire plant; 3 in. in diameter and

Spark’s Earliana Special Strain 
Extra fine stock of this strain. Selected

Main Crop Varieties 
Acme 1 1 0 days 
A medium size, slightly oval, smooth to¬ 
mato with purplish pink skin and deep scar¬ 
let flesh. The vine is large and very prolific, 
bearing fruits in clusters of 4 or 5, early 
and continuously until frost. 
Beauty 1 1 0 days 
The most popular of the large pink sorts. 
Fruit large, smooth, purplish-pink skin, light 
pink flesh. Large, vigorous, heavy bearing 
plants. An excellent shipper. 
Brimmer 
Similar in characters to Ponderosa. A 
large pink fruited variety, quite smooth for 
its size. Cell structure is irregular. The to¬ 
mato is thick and meaty. 
Crimson Cushion (Beefsteak) 120 days 
A scarlet “sport” from Ponderosa and 
resembles the original stock except that the 
color is a brilliant crimson-scarlet. The very 
large fruits are carried in clusters of 4 to 6. 
Flesh is very solid and meaty, making it a 
fine table sort. 
Dwarf Champion 125 days 
Medium size, purplish-pink, nearly round 
fruit. Plant grows like a tree and some¬ 
times called “Tree Tomato.” Stems are short, 
thick and almost self-supporting. May be 
grown quite close together where space is 
limited. 
Dwarf Stone 1 30 days 
The largest bright red, dwarf, tree sort. 
A great favorite with home gardeners. A 
late variety producing solid, smooth fruit. 
Golden Queen 1 1 2 days 
A main crop, large, smooth, bright yellow 
tomato, some times with a slight blush of 
red. Very productive and possesses a flavor 
superior to the red sorts, as it has less acid. 
Greater Baltimore 1 1 0 days 
A red fruited, medium large, solid tomato 
somewhat more desirable than the Stone in 
that it is a little earlier and more pro¬ 
ductive. Plants are strong, continuous crop¬ 
pers, bearing until killed by frost. No ridges 
or cracks, making it an ideal canner. 
Marglobe (Wilt Resistant) 1 10 days 
This well known and very popular tomato 
was developed by the U. S. Dept, of Agri¬ 
culture and thoroughly tested in sections 
where wilt is present, meeting with great 
success. Produces medium size, smooth, 
deep globe shape, meaty, bright red fruits 
in clusters of 5 to 7. A heavy producer and 
excellent for market gardeners—also fine 
for home gardens. Most popular shipping 
variety today.
