Henderson's p0|\jpvpp QO A The Grandest 
Genuine A » 1 NL/I —** O/v Tomato on Earth 
Quality beyond Praise Solid as Beefsteak Shape Perfect Size Massive 
Early and Late Luxuriant Grower Prodigiously Prolific Succeeds Everywhere 
HENDERSON’S PONDEROSA TOMATO is in every way splendid. It excels in magnif¬ 
icent size, often attaining a circumference of 18 inches and weighing 2, 3 and 4 pounds each; 
perfect in form; as solid and meaty as beefsteak, free from watery cavities and almost seedless. 
It ripens thoroughly, its glowing crimson cojor permeating the flesh to the heart; it is free from 
rot, but, above all, the delicious quality and flavor are its crowning merits—toothsome and rich 
when sliced, savory and delicious when cooked, while for canning it is the Tomato par-excellence. 
HENDERSON’S PONDEROSA TOMATO is a luxuriant, health}' grower, independent 
of droughts, free from blight, and a prodigious, early and continuous bearer. First ripe fruits 
are often picked in 10 weeks from seed sowing, while late fruits may be gathered until frost. 
HENDERSON’S PONDEROSA TOMATO is now grown in every State in the Union 
and every civilized country on the globe, and from everywhere it receives nothing but enthusiastic 
praise. Hundreds of eulogistic letters regarding it are received by us annually. 
HENDERSON’S PONDEROSA TOMATO is better and better every year. It is now so 
highly bred, so free from seeds, that we only get ten pounds of seed from an acre, where formerly 
we harvested twenty to thirty pounds, while ordinary Tomatoes yield one hundred pounds or 
more seed per acre; this fact alone shows that Henderson’s Ponderosa is almost all solid meat. 
HENDERSON’S PONDEROSA TOMATO SEED, purchased direct from us, insures the 
best grade, saved from selected fruits. It seeds too sparingly to be profitable for most sellers 
of seeds, so many inferior stocks of Tomato are being offered under the name of “Ponderosa.”
