Marglobe Wilt-Resistant 
Deep Scarlet. [100 Days] 
No tomato has created such intense interest since the introduction of our 
Wood’s Famous Brimmer. It was bred primarily to produce a red wilt- 
resistant tomato of the Globe type and exceeded all expectations. It is a 
splendid bearer, firm, thick and mildly acid. Ripens perfectly, does not 
crack easily and is of very superior quality. The fruits are of good size, 
smooth, solid, deep from stem to blossom, and are borne in clusters of 5 to 7 
fruits. Marglobe has proved its ability to withstand long periods of wet 
weather. 
No. 428. CERTIFIED STRAIN —Our Certified Marglobe was inspected in the 
field by the State certifying authority by whom it was certified as true to 
type and free of disease. We believe it is as fine a strain as can be had 
and will yield the large, smooth, beautifully shaped fruits in demand in 
all markets and especially required by canners. Fkt. 10c; oz. 25c: y. lb. 85c-

Marglobe Wilt-Resistant Tomato 
No. 427. Break o’ Day Scarlet. [95 Days] —-its 
outstanding features are 
earlmess and productiveness. It is really a very 
early Marglobe, has much the same shape, color and 
size, thickness of walls, but almost as early as 
Earliana, yet deep, solid smooth; of good size and 
almost seedless. The foliage is sparse. Break-o’- 
Day is another of the wilt-resistant tomatoes bred 
by Dr. Pritchard of the United States Department 
of Agriculture, from whose planting stock our sup¬ 
ply was grown. It is resistant to both wilt and 
nailhead rust. Pkt. 10c; oz. 35c; y 4 lb. $1.15; lb. $4.00; 
2-lb. lots $3.75 per lb.; 5-lb. lots $3.50 per lb.; 10-lb. 
lots $3.25 per lb., postpaid. 
No. 429. Rutgers Wilt-Resistant—Certified 
Deep Scarlet. [100 Days] —When a Rutgers is red on 
the outside, you can be assured it is ripe all over, 
for it begins to ripen at the center. It is very much 
like Marglobe in shape, except somewhat flatter at 
the stem end; is equally as wilt-resistant; intense red in color; the outer and inner walls 
are solid meat; has small seed cavity and very few seeds. A consistent cropper, an excel¬ 
lent tomato for the home garden, for market, canning and for tomato juice. Pkt. 10c; 
oz. 30c; i/4 lb. 90c; lb. $3.25; 2-lb. lots $3.00 per lb.; 5-lb. lots $2.80 per lb.; 10-lb. lots $2.65 
per lb., postpaid. 
Break-o’-Day 
No. 420. Certified Pritchard Jfp- < Vll I,E n T topper) scarlet. 
[95 Days] — Dr. Pritchard 
probably did his best work in tomatoes when he crossed Mar¬ 
globe and Cooper’s Special and produced Scarlet Topper, now 
renamed Pritchard in his honor. It inherits the best qualities of 
Marglobe and the earliness, productiveness and self-topping fea¬ 
tures of Cooper’s Special. The uniformly smooth globe-shaped 
fruits are large, solid and heavy; have thick walls; skin and 
flesh are intense scarlet; no core and small seed pockets. The 
sturdy vines are heavy producers, have abundant foliage to pro¬ 
tect the fruits and bear for a long season. It is almost as early 
as Bonnie Best. Pritchard promises to become an outstanding 
leader among home gardeners, market gardeners and canners. 
It succeeds best on heavy soils. Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; y 4 lb. 90c; 
lb. $3.25; 2-lb. lots $3.00 per lb.; 5-lb. lots $2.80 per lb.; 10-lb. lots 
$2.65 per lb., postpaid. 
No. 421. Norton Wilt-Resistant Scarlet. (110 Days) —Nor- 
ton was developed from 
the Stone and ripens at the same season. It yields a heavy crop 
of large, smooth, solid red fruits that ripen slowly, therefore is 
a good keeper and a good shipper; it is also remarkably drought- 
resistant. Excellent for the home garden, for canning and for 
the late market. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25o; V4 lb. 80c; lb. $2.75; 2-lb. lots 
$2.50 per lb.; 5-lb. lots $2.35 per lb.; 10-lb. lots $2.15 per lb., post¬ 
paid.
