Olds^ Wilt and Rust-Resistant Tomatoes 
Marglolse. 
433. MARGLOBE. (80 days.) The 
perfect tomato. Wilt-resistant and rust- 
resistant. A new variety that is attracting 
a lot of attention. Resists nail-head rust 
and fusarium wilt. Has proven successful 
ander the most severe test. Pure scarlet 
in color, globular in shape, extra large, 
smooth, early, beautiful in appearance and 
very productive. Above all, the quality is 
most excellent. Pkt., 10c; Va oz., 15c; oz.,

428. PRITCHARD, (76 days.) The 
new Pritchard is without doubt the best of 
the disease-resistant varieties. It resists the 
nail-head disease and also the tomato wilt. 
In appearance it is similar to Marglobe, 
Scarlet in color, of good size and shape, 
the fruits borne in clusters of 5 and pro¬ 
duced in abundance. It is a mid-season 
variety requiring about 110 days to ripen 
from seed. About 5 days earlier than Mar¬ 
globe. The vine is short jointed and of 
low growth with heavy foliage. Pkt., 10c; 
V 2 oz., 20c; oz., 35c; V4 lb., $1.05, post¬

Olds’ T'^mato Seed is produced from tomatoes 
grown exc.dsively for seed. One packet will pro¬ 
duce 200 plants. Two to four ounces will pro¬ 
duce enough plants for an acre. Tomatoes do 
well in practically any garden soil and take up 
little space. No home garden is complete without 
them. 
CULTURE: Start the seed indoors about the 
last of February. When 2 inches high transplant 
to 4 inches apart each way and again transplant 
to the open ground as soon as danger of freezing 
is over, in rows 3 to 6 feet each way. Some 
growers train the vines on trellises so that the 
fruit will ripen earlier. Use Sage Hi-Caps for 
this crop. Seepage 53. The figure after the va¬ 
riety shows time of picking after setting plants.

Market Gardeners’ Price List. 
431, BREAK O’ DAY. (70 days.) A new 
extra early, wilt-resistant tomato developed by 
the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Break o’ 
Day matures with Earliana. The fruit resembles 
the famous Marglobe; it is the same color, shape 
and size and is the only early tomato of a deep 
globe shape. The fruits are solid with very 
few seeds and they will not crack. A bountiful 
yielder. Not satisfactory on all soils. Pkt., 10c; 
1/2 oz., 25c; oz., 40c; Vi lb., $1.20, postpaid. 
426. 
Scarlet Dawn. 
SCARLET DAWN.. (70 days.) 
Received Gold Medal Award in the 1035 
All-America Contest. It is a cross of Clark’s 
Early on Marglobe and is earlier in season 
than both parents. The vine is of inedium 
growth, fairly open, very prolific. Fruits are 
medium large, globular, smooth and free from 
fiat sides and pufifiness. Bright scarlet ripen¬ 
ing well to the stem. Exceptionally attrac¬ 
tive. Reports on the various trials which 
were sent out on this variety are very grati¬ 
fying. The picture shown above was taken 
of one cluster which contained 15 sound 
tomatoes. Some ripe, some just turning and 
others green but each free from cracks and 
sound. This variety is wilt and rust re¬ 
sistant. Pkt., 10c; Vz oz., 25c; oz., 45c; 
1/4 lb., $1.35, postpaid.

PLANT MUCH EARLIER 
GROWTH VERY RAPID— 
Growth is forced very rapidly from the start due to the even 
temperature and ideal growing conditions afforded by this plant 
cover. Moisture is retained, crusting prevented, and a perfect 
mulch maintained around each plant. With these advantages, a 
much larger and hardier plant is formed weeks earlier than 
normal. The first few weeks of plant life without proper protec¬ 
tion are beset with peril—frost, hail, wind, rain, sometimes heat, 
cut worms, insects, birds, animals—all take their toll. The SAGE 
HI-CAP has been scientifically and practically designed against 
these evils and the assurance of a large and earlier crop makes 
the purchase and placing costs of these “individual hothouses’’ 
of minor importance.
