A Very Promising Variety for Florida 
CLEO. (96 days.) This Kilgore variety in trials in different 
sections of Florida has shown much promise. It was devel- 
oped from a cross between Clark’s Early and Oxheart, and 
possesses the earliness and red color of Clark’s Early, along 
with the deep globe shape, thick walls and large size of Ox- 
heart. The plant is very vigorous in growth with an immense 
root system, making it very drouth resistant and especially 
well adapted for sandy and shallow land. It should be fer- 
tilized with a mixture relatively high in potash and low in 
ammonia. The extensive root system takes up fertilizer read- 
ily. Should be given somewhat wider spacing than other vari- 
eties, on deep moist land, 7 to 8 feet between rows, on shallow 
land 6 to 7 feet between rows. The vigorous vines make an 
open, spreading growth and develop an immense yield of 
smooth, uniformly deep globe-shaped fruits of large size 
clear to the end of the vine. 
Pkt. 5c; Y2 oz. 30c; oz. 50c; 1% Ib. $1.65; 1 Ib. $6.00. 
KILGORE’S SPECIAL CUBAN MARGLOBE. (95 days.) After 
making special individual plant selections for a number of 
years we developed a strain of Marglobe tomato seed espe- 
cially adapted for Cuba and the West Indies. The fruits are 
larger, deeper globe-shaped, smoother, and much firmer, with 
thicker flesh than most strains, making them hold up better 
for long distance shipment. 
Pkt. 5c; 2 oz. 25c¢; oz. 40c; 1% Ib. $1.25; 1 Ib. $4.50. 
FLETCHER’S SPECIAL. (90 days.) The vine growth is vig- 
orous, withstanding wet weather conditions better than any 
other variety. The fruit is smooth and averages larger than 
Marglobe, ripening uniformly to a beautiful deep red. It is 
very heavy and meaty with small seed cavities, which makes 
it resistant to puffiness and an ideal long distance shipper. 
An exceedingly heavy producer of large, globe-shaped fruits. 
Pkt. 5c; 2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; 1% Ib. $1.15; 1 Ib. $4.00. 
KILGORE’S NEW FLORIGLOBE OR MARHIO. (95 days.) 
This is a new wilt-resistant, pink Marglobe. Our strain of 
this has been especially developed for uniformity, freedom 
from cracking, smoothness at the stem end, and for a deep 
globe shape. A vigorous grower and heavy cropper of large 
sized, fancy fruits, which ripen to a deep pink. 
Pkt. 5c; 2 oz. 25c; oz. 35¢; 1% Ib. $1.00; 1 Ib. $3.50. 
PRITCHARD OR SCARLET TOPPER. (90 days.) The Pritch- 
ard was developed by crossing Marglobe with Cooper’s Spe- 
cial Self-Topper. It combines the good qualities of both 
parent varieties. Vines medium dense, compact, erect, self- 
topping. Fruits mature very early, a week to ten days earlier 
than Marglobe, are large, smooth, meaty, globular in shape 
and ripen uniformly to a very deep attractive red color, both 
exterior and interior. This variety is an enormous producer 
and therefore requires rich or liberally fertilized moist soil. 
Pkt. 5¢; V2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; 1% Ib. $1.15; 1 Ib. $4.00. 
KILGORE’S BRED-RITE BRYAN’S SELF-TOPPER. (90 days.) 
Plants set fruit very heavily in clusters at every joint to the 
tip end of the vines. Bryan Self-Topper fruit is of pink 
color, large, solid, smooth, globe-shaped, and with a very 
small seed cavity. Does best on low, rich, moist soil. 
Pkt. 5¢; V2 oz. 25¢; oz. 40c; 1% Ib. $1.15; 1 Ib. $4.00. 
COOPER’S SPECIAL SELF-TOPPER. (92 days.) We have 
made special selections to increase the size and the per- 
centage of fancy fruits. The plants are hardy, and are loaded 
with fine, solid, smooth fruits which ripen to a beautiful pink 
color. This variety requires low, moist land with heavy ap- 
plications of fertilizer to make large size, fancy fruits. 
Pkt. 5c; Y2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; 1% Ib. $1.15; 1 Ib. $4.00. 
CLARK’S EARLY. (85 days.) This variety is popular in 
North Florida. It is an early maturing, semi-globe shaped 
tomato, very smooth, firm, and of large size, ripening to a 
beautiful deep red color. The plant stands up well under ad- 
verse conditions. Its high yield of fancy, early fruits makes 
it a very desirable variety to grow. 
Pkt. 5¢; 2 oz. 20c; oz. 30c; 4% Ib. 85c; 1 Ib. $3.00. 
KILGORE’S IMPROVED GLOVEL. (92 days.) This variety is 
a cross between Globe and Marvel. The vine growth is strong 
and vigorous. The fruit is of deep globe shape, large, firm, 
smooth, and notably free from growth cracks, and ripens to 
a pink color. It is highly resistant to Fusarium Wilt and to 
nail-head rust disease. 
Pkt. 5c; V2 oz. 20c; oz. 30c; % Ib. 85c; 1 Ib. $3.00. 
LIVINGSTON’S GLOBE, IMPROVED. (95 days.) An im- 
proved strain of the old Livingston’s Globe variety, popular 
in the Gulf States for many years. Our improved strain is 
very productive of fancy, perfectly globe-shaped fruits, 
holding their large size and shape until the last pickings. 
Pkt. 5c; V2 oz. 20c; oz. 35c; V% Ib. $1.00; 1 Ib. $3.50. 
BREAK O’ DAY. (90 days.) An early variety producing 
heavy crops of large, smooth, globular, meaty red fruits. 
Break O’ Day is resistant to wilt and nail-head rust. The 
plants are rather weak and spreading in growth, of open 
character, with very small leaves. 
Pkt. 5c; V2 oz. 25¢; oz. 40c; “% Ib. $1.15; 1 Ib. $4.00. 
PONDEROSA. (Brimmer.) (110 days.) A very large pink- 
fruited variety. The fruits are more or less flattened, very 
solid and meaty with few seeds, and of splendid edible qual- 
ity. Recommended only for home gardens because its un- 
usual size and weight are disadvantages in shipping. 
Pkt. 5¢; V2 oz. 30c; oz. 55¢; 1% Ib. $1.65; 1 Ib. $6.00. 
OXHEART. (90 days.) A smooth, thick, tender and almost 
seedless pink-fruited tomato of delicious flavor. Rich soil 
adds greatly to its productiveness. This is an ideal variety 
for the home garden and for the local market. 
Pkt. 5¢; V2 oz. 35c; oz. 60c; 1% Ib. $2.00; 1 Ib. $7.50. 
RED PEAR. (88 days.) A small fruited variety, pear shaped, 
about an inch in diameter. Useful for serving whole in salads 
and for preserves and pickles. 
Pkt. 5¢; V2 oz. 30c; oz. 50c; % Ib. $1.50.
