TOMATOES—Continued 
Nystate Tomatoes 
Delicious, deep red, smooth and thick meated. 
NYSTATE New — Early — Thick Meated and Heavy 
- 1 Cropper. All who have grown this new tomato 
agree with us that for flavor and sweetness it is without equal. 
This new variety was originated by the New York State Ex¬ 
perimental Station at Geneva. It has great merit as a home 
garden and market variety as well as for canning. 
As we have seen it growing we were impressed not only by 
its line flavor but by the thickness of the meat, the beautiful 
red color which extends right through the fruit and the smooth 
skin. It also proved to be an extremely heavy cropper. The fruit 
is medium early, ripening about the same time as John Baer. 
This is a worthy addition to our list of fine tomatoes and 
we urge our customers to try it.

REDCAP. (New.) Introduced by the New York State Agricul¬ 
ture Experiment Station at Geneva. This new tomato has 
proved to be an excellent cropper. The fruits are slightly flat¬ 
tened, smooth and solid. They are of mild but excellent flavor, 
making a superior canned product. The color both inside and 
out is exceptionally good. Ripens about the same time as Baer.

“/ icanl to commend you on the fine quality of your seeds. I 
have found they always are true to all the claims you make and 
surpass any other garden seeds 1 have bought in the past few years.” 
G. E. Hagberg, Jamestown, N. } ., April 4, 1938. 
MARGLOBE. Blight Resistant. Main Crop. Our original stock 
-1 seed of this famous tomato was sent to us by the 
United States Department of Agriculture at Washington. We have 
grown and improved this variety on our farm for a number of years, 
until now we have a stock that is unsurpassed. 
'File tomatoes are large, globe shaped, smooth, color perfectly all 
over and are of a deep red color all through. The vines are vigorous 
and resist blight well even in very wet weather. The fruit ripens medium 
late coming on just after John Baer and Bonny Best. It is so large, 
smooth and handsome that it is excellent for market, canning or any 
other purpose.

BONNY BEST. Harris’ Special Strain. I I lis magnificent early variety 
should be largely planted for home use and market. The fruit ripens 
only a week later than Earliana and the plants produce enormous crops 
of beautiful, smooth, high colored fruit, practically all of which ripen 
before the vines are killed by frost. 
The tomatoes are of good size, only slightly smaller than Improved 
John Baer, smooth as an apple and a deep scarlet color which extends 
right up to the stem without any green tinge. There is no finer strain 
of Bonny Best than the seed we offer, no matter what price is charged.

HARRIS’ SUCCESS. This old favorite is still popular with many people. 
The fruit resembles Stone and it is of the finest quality for cooking 
or canning, being sweet and free from acidity. The vines are very 
vigorous and produce enormous crops of very large, handsome fruit.

“This is the first year 1 have purchased seed from you, and to say that I 
am pleased with the results I have had so far is putting it mildly. Melons 
are coming along fine so far; the Tendergreen beans have been delicious; 
Alderman peas ivere the best tee ever ate, and what quantities of them! The 
Prolific squash is the best we ever ate. We picked our first one on the 8th of 
this month. The plants are loaded with squash. The Nystate tomato plants 
are loaded ivith tomatoes. 
My garden is the envy of the neighborhood. Bear in mind I am only an 
amateur at gardening but 1 have the best garden of vegetables I have ever 
had.” Walter Kay, Cranston, R. I. July 18, 1938. 
Small Fruits for the Home Garden 
Small fruits do not take up a great deal of space and add 
immeasurably to the value and satisfaction of the home 
garden. See pages 83 to 85 for Strawberries, Raspberries, Black¬ 
berries and Grapes. 
COMET Tor Greenhouse and Trellis Growing. Our strain is a 
-- great favorite in New England. The fruit is smooth, bright 
red and just the ideal size for individual salads. We have an excellent 
strain which has been found very fine for both greenhouse and grow¬ 
ing outside on trellises or stakes. The seed has been saved from care¬ 
fully selected plants and there is none better to be had.
