TOMATO—Continued 
Gould's Early Standards 98 days 
Gould’s Early Standard Tomato is the result of many 
years of experimenting- to obtain a meaty, heavy bear¬ 
ing tomato, that would produce early and continue to 
bear fruit until frost. 
It has no equal for the home garden or for market, be¬ 
ing an excellent keeper and shipper, fruit being firm, 
coloring beautifully, producing abundantly from early 
summer till frost. Flavor is unsurpassed. Unexcelled 
for canning. No expense has been spared to make Gould’s 
Early Standard the best tomato grown anywhere. Pkt, 
15c; % oz. GOc; 14 oz. $1.00; y 2 oz. $1.75; nz. $3.50. 
October 20, 1938 
I picked 1,160 ripe and 1 bushel of green tomatoes 
from 12 Gould’s Standard tomato plants which 1 pur¬ 
chased from you this spring. Best of all, the quality 
of Gould’s Standard tomato is the best of any variety 
I have ever tried.
