Rutgers Tomato (New) 
Large, Prolific, Finest Quality — N. Y. State Certified 
We know of no tomato which has so quickly become such a general favorite as the Rutgers. Itis without 
doubt one of the finest grown today and we recommend it highly. 
The fruit is large, globe shape, deep red all over. The flesh is deep red, very solid and of most superior 
quality. The vines are strong and sturdy, producing an enormous quantity of fine fruit. This is an un¬ 
usually fine kind for home preserving as the fruit remains firm and solid when canned. It is an early 
midseason variety, a few days later than John Baer in ripening. 
Since its introduction by the New Jersey Agriculture Experiment Station we have continuously selected 
the finest early plants so that our stock is now better than when first introduced. 
We are pleased to offer New York Certified Seed of our own growing.

New Golden Globe 
An Orange Colored Tomato of Fine Quality 
This distinctive new variety has all the characteristics required of a fine tomato. Deep globe shape, 
firm solid flesh, and high yield on strong sturdy vines. Itis not a freak but a real tomato. Instead of being 
red the fruit has orange skin and orange flesh with just a trace of pink in the center. They are most 
attractive when sliced. The quality is fine. We have used it both for canning and juice. The juice is rich, 
full flavored and orange colored, entirely different from the pale insipid juice of most “yellow” tomatoes. 
This is not an early variety but under normal planting ripens the greatest part of the fruit before frost. 
Have a few plants in your garden this year. You will certainly be pleased.

Macomber 
The Sweetest Ruta Baga (Swede Turnip) 
Golden Globe Tomatoes — They make a superior juice. 
White Flesh 
Many people who do not ordinarily care for ruta bagas are 
very fond of the “Macomber.” If you have not tried them 
before, you will be surprised that ruta bagas could be so mild 
and sweet. It is of very much finer quality for table use than 
any other kind. 
The turnips are white with purplish green tops, large, 
smooth, round and handsome and with practically no neck. The 
flesh is white, fine grained and of a mild sweet flavor. They will 
keep all winter and remain in fine condition if properly stored. 
To get the best results the seed should be sown about the 
middle or last of June in the Northern slates. 
We highly recommend this turnip for the home garden or 
market where quality is appreciated and this excellent variety 
finds ready sales at the roadside market..

Van Buren (New) 
The Best Very Early Black Grape 
This is the earliest black grape and in fact one of the earliest varieties 
of grapes grown. The clusters are medium to large in size, quite com¬ 
pact, and with berries just a little smaller than the well known Concord. 
They are darker than Concord and we think much better in quality. 
This new variety is a very superior kind for the home garden and should 
make an excellent grape for roadside stands. 
2-year vines. Each $1.25; 3 for $3.50; 1 doz. $12.50 transportation paid.

Quality Squash 
Our Favorite. The Best Flavored Squash. Fine Grained and Sweet. 
For years we have compared this squash with the best varieties, but it 
is still our favorite of all the kinds we grow or sell. The thick deep colored 
flesh of these fine squash cooks as dry as a good sweet potato and is sweeter 
and finer flavored than any other kind we know. The fruit is medium size 
(5-10 lbs.) a very convenient size for family use. The outside shell is dark 
green, thin and hard. The vines are strong and healthy and produce ex¬ 
cellent crops. 
We know of no more satisfactory kind for the home garden and the 
present trend toward the smaller and better quality sorts both in the 
city markets and at roadside stands makes this a profitable kind to grow. 
These attractive dark green squash find a ready sale. Be sure to grow 
some this year.
