TOMATOES 
W.-D. CO.’S NEW EARLY RED 
If you would have a bumper crop of quality tomatoes, 
you should plant the New Early Red. We do not hesitate 
in saying “IT IS THE BEST,” and this is the sentiment of 
our customers who have planted this variety. 
It is Early, as our trials have shown it to be much earlier 
than the Marglobe and ripened very soon after the Earliana. 
It is Red. It is a brilliantly colored tomato, with the color 
evenly distributed to the stem end and through the flesh. Its 
beautiful red color has attracted attent'on and quite an ir- 
terest by dealers, growers, canners ar.d others. It is of the 
round type, which the canners desire. The plants are vigor¬ 
ous in growth, wilt-resistant, and although the foliage is 
sufficient to give the tomato protection it is not dense enough 
to interfere with proper coloring. During recent years the can¬ 
ning houses have been encouraging the growing of an early 
round red tomato, and this one has certainly met the re¬ 
quirements, as to earliness, color, shape and productivity, 
and produces a very low percentage of culls. Pkt. 10c, oz. 50c, 
34 lb. $1.50, lb. $5.00. 
BONNY BEST 
About 10 days earlier than Chalk’s Jewel, and nearly as 
early as Earliana. It is a strong vigorous grower, very 
prolific, heavy foliage, which acts as a protection from the 
hot sun. The fruit is round, red, with delicious flavor, very 
uniform in size and shape. Does not have the green surface 
like the Earliana. Pkt. 10c, oz. 25c, 34 lb- 75c, lb. $2.50. 
PRITCHARD or SCARLET TOPPER 
One of the late Dr. Pritchard’s developments and intro¬ 
duced by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in 1931. A 
second early variety, a heavy yielder and of the type called 
self-topping or pruning. The fruit are of medium size, deep 
scarlet, globe shaped and solid. Its shipping qualities are 
unexcelled. Pkt. 10c, oz. 40c, 34 lb. $1.25, lb. $4.00. 
PENN STATE EARLIANA 
The earliest of all Tomatoes. Especially valuable for this 
reason, being 10 days to 2 weeks earlier than any other sort. 
A bright red color; solid and very prolific. Pkt. 10c, oz. 25c, 
34 lb. 75c, lb. $2.75. 
MARGLOBE 
Let us here and now, emphasize the fact that we have only 
one variety of Marglobe Tomato and we are not going to 
attempt to substitute some other variety, or seed saved 
from some canning house in order to lower the price; so when 
you order Marglobe from us, you can rest assured you are 
getting the true strain as originally introduced by the late 
Dr. Prichard; selected with the greatest care, that they 
shall be true, pure and reliable. Fruit are well-sized, smooth, 
beautiful red color and of a very attractive appearance, 
globe shaped and almost coreless. Nationally known for its 
good canning and shipping quality. Pkt. 10c, oz. 50c, 34 lb. 
$1.25, lb. $4.00. 
SCARLET DAWN 
Rapidly growing in popularity; earlier in season than the 
Marglobe or the Clark’s Early which is the result of crossing 
of the two varieties. Fruit medium large with thick wall 
structure, globe shaped, free from flat sides, bright scarlet. 
Vine of medium growth, very prolific. Highly desirable for 
the market gardener or the home garden. Pkt. 10c, oz. 45c,
