Improved Grothen Globe. 5 
- 1 - decided im¬ 
provement on the Grothen Globe Tomato, a 
variety originated in the Soutli. W^e have de¬ 
veloped this to produce a Tomato with a good, 
heavy thick wall suitable for carrying long dis¬ 
tances. Tt is a trifle earlier than Marglobe, very 
productive, with large-sized fruit. This year our 
fields produced 16 tons to the acre. Pkt. 10 cts.; 
oz. $1; V^lb. $3.25; lb. $12. 
Autumn Queen. this stock we are offering 
-- something new. We have 
developed this strain to mature about one week 
later than Marglobe. The vine is strong and 
robust. An exceptionally good variety for yield, 
producing large, very thick, globe-shaped To¬ 
matoes with small seed-space and fine bright red 
color. It has been our ambition for the past five 
years to put out a strain of Tomato in this class. 
Insist on having this for at least a part of your 
crop this coming season for we believe it will out- 
yield any stock of Tomato ever offered before. 
Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. $1; $3.25; lb. $12. 
Spring Garden. We have originated this va- 
—— -=- riety. It is a perfect, globe- 
shaped stock with strong foliage, and about as 
early as Bonny Best, Scarlet Topper, etc. An 
exceptionally true strain with good-sized fruit. It 
is unusual for a variety this large to mature per¬ 
fect, globe-shaped Tomatoes about the same time 
as Bonny Best. Good-sized Tomatoes can be 
picked all season. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. $1; V4^h. $3.25; 
lb. $12.

mato and a remarkably productive sort. Used by

STONE. The best-known Tomato for main crop. 
Our strain of this variety has been carefully se¬ 
lected to produce heavy crops of uniform fruits. 
Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 35 cts.; V^lb. $1; lb. $3.50. 
MARGLOBE. Since its origination, we believe this 
has become a favorite quicker than any other 
stock of Tomato. One of the main points to be 
considered is the shape—we know that it is abso¬ 
lutely essential to have a good globe shape. This 
we have secured, together with selecting the stock 
to eliminate cracks around the stem. Our stock 
seed, every year, costs a considerable amount of 
money to produce. We suggest that you give this 
extra-selected stock a trial. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 
45 cts.; V 4 lb. $1.50; lb. $5.50; 10 lbs. $52.50.
