TOMATO or LOVE APPLE 
One Ounce of Seed Should Produce 2000 Plants in the Greenhouse or Goldframe. One-quarter 
Pound of Seed Sown in the Field Should Produce Ample Plants for 1 Acre. Seed breaks ground 
in 8 days. One inch high in 12 days under most favorable circumstances in greenhouse 
Tomato plants should be hardened before setting in the field. This is best accomplished by with¬ 
holding water a few days previous to moving them to the field. An average production of fruits is 7 tons 
per acre but one of our farmers produced over 21 tons to the acre on 10 acres by using our Certified 
Marglobe Seed. In 1936, there were 12 growers in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, alone, who produced over 
ten tons of fruits per acre with Landreths' Certified Tomato Seed. 
In purchasing Landreths’ Bloomsdale Farm Grown Tomato Seed, the buyer is certain of the absolute 
purity of what he buys. Every crop is produced from seed saved from hand-selected fruits of the preceding 
year, every one of the fruits being closely inspected and approved as to shape, color and internal structure, 
and what is more important, the only fruits saved are from vines of approved type, vigor, freedom from 
disease, and yield qualities. Landreth is distributing a free circular on the tomato. All growers should 
have one.
