Tomato. A cross of Clark’s Early and Marglobe 
and earlier in season than either parent. Vine 
is of medium growth, fairly open, very prolific; 
fruits medium large with thick wall structure 
slightly globular and very smooth, bright scar¬ 
let, ripening well to the stem. A fine home and 
market garden Tomato. Received the All Amer¬ 
ica Gold Medal for 1935. Pkt. 10c, 1/2 oz. 25c,

New Rutgers. The outstanding features of this new 
Tomato are the large size and solid structure of 
the globe shaped fruits, ripening to an even 
deep red color all over. It is not an extra early 
variety, ripening usually with Marglobe, and 
continuing to yield heavily until frost. It is of 
fine flavor. Pkt. 10c, 1/2 oz. 20c, oz. 35c, Va

fore stated that we knew no Tomato possessing 
more good points than does our Prime Stock

fruit only a few days later than the earliest, even 
short crop varieties, and continues to yield its 
perfectly formed, solid, uniform size, beautiful

riety to our knowledge. The seed we offer of this 
Tomato is of our own growing and cleaning, 
from carefully selected ripened fruit. Pkt. 10c,
