Tomato 
Schell’s Royal Wo 
This is the grand new early Tomato we 
introduced last year as No. 20 . Thou¬ 
sands of names were submitted, from 
which we selected the one sent by Mrs. 
Levi Horst, Ontario, Canada, who re¬ 
ceived the $25 prize. I wish we had space 
to print the many wonderful letters we 
received in highest praise of this new, 
largest, early Tomato. It is a Royal To¬ 
mato and it is a Wonderful Tomato in 
that it surpasses any other we know of 
in its class as an early Tomato following 
right after the extra-early Penn State. 
Schell’s Royal Wonder is early, with 
large, perfect, globe-shaped, smooth, 
sparkling fruit, deep rich scarlet-red up 
to the stem. It gives a very heavy yield 
of all-perfect fruits. Flesh juicy, richly 
flavored; small seed-cavity. Ready about 
3 weeks ahead of Marglobe. 
We consider Schell’s New Royal 
Wonder the most outstanding large 
early Tomato. So confident are we that 
you will think the same as we do after 
you grow it, that we offer you our double 
guarantee that we will refund double 
what you pay for the seed of it if you do 
not find it the best large, early Tomato 
you ever grew. Pkt. 15 cts.; 2 pkts. 
25 cts.; V 2 oz. 85 cts.; oz. $1.60; V^h. 
$4.75; y 2 \b. $7.50; lb. $15. 
Prize Winner, All-America Seed 
Selections Awards 
This very excellent first-early To¬ 
mato, developed by Dr. C. E. Myers, 
Professor of Plant Breeding of Pennsyl¬ 
vania State Agricultural College and 
Experiment Station, and introduced 
exclusively by us three years ago, is, in 
our opinion, the best-quality, heavi¬ 
est-yielding first-early Tomato, 
excepting no other. Our experience 
finds it ready for use in advance of 
Earliana, heretofore considered the 
earliest. Its yield of 20 tons per acre is 
double that of almost all other varieties. 
Its compact, determinate habit of plant- 
growth allows closer planting. The 
foliage protects the fruit from sun- 
scald, and conserves the moisture in the 
soil around the plants, thus enabling 
them to withstand more dry weather 
and high temperatures than others. 
We consider Penn State Tomato 
the best choice for first-early crop, 
and thousands of our customers every¬ 
where have written us they think so, 
too. Our seed is produced from Dr. 
Myers’ stock seed. Prices are greatly 
reduced this year. Pkt. 10 cts.; 
3 pkts. 25 cts.; V^oz. 40 cts.; oz. 
70 cts.; 2 ozs. $1.35; l/^lb. $2; V^lb. 
$3.75; lb. $6.75. 
Mr. James Nichols, 
Illinois, is delighted. He 
writes us: “I must say that 
your Penn State Tomato 
far exceeded my fondest 
expectations, also your 
Majestic and Veridark 
Cucumber.”
