The 
Landreth 
Tomato 
* GREATER BALTIMORE—105 Days. A main 
crop or midseason variety grown in the South and 
the Middle West. It is earlier than the Stone types, 
and therefore may produce a more satisfactory 
crop for you. Our strain of Greater Baltimore has 
been carefully plant-selected for large sized fruits 
and for good red internal color and solid structure. 
The vines are vigorous and healthy. 
* GROTHEN’S RED GLOBE—95 Days. A 
variety of the Break O’Day type developed in 
Florida. The vines have Jong stems like Break 
O'Day, but the leaflets are somewhat larger, and 
more abundant. The vines stand up better and 
therefore protect the fruit from sunscald. The 
fruits are globe-shaped, as large or larger than 
Break O’Day, and with better external color. The 
internal structure is very solid and meaty, and of a 
darker red color than Break O’ Day described on the 
preceding page. 
* ILLINOIS PRIDE—115 Days. In tests here at 
Bristol, Illinois Pride has shown more wilt resist- 
ance than any other variety in the late Stone Group. 
The fruits are large and solid, being slightly flattened 
in shape, and with dark red outside and inside color. 
The vines are dark green color, with broad leaves 
and heavy stems. Fruits are fairly smooth con- 
sidering the large size of the tomatoes. Developed 
by Dr. W. A. Huelsen of the Illinois Experiment 
Station. 
*INDIANA BALTIMORE—110 Days. This 
splendid strain of Baltimore was developed for the 
Mid-west. It is about a week later than Greater 
Baltimore, the plants are slightly larger and coarser, 
but the fruits are about the same size and shape. 
It is more wilt resistant than Greater Baltimore. 
* JOHN BAER—100 Days. A second early 
tomato used extensively in New York State. It is 
similar to a large Chalk’s Jewel or Bonny Best.

* THE LANDRETH—100 Days. This variety is 
our own selection and is an improvement on the 
vast majority of those in the second early group. 
The fruits are large and solid. The external and 
internal color is a deep red, making it a good early 
canning tomato used extensively in New York. In 
a recent test in Ohio, The Landreth produced a 
higher yield than the Master Marglobe, Early Stone, 
Indiana Baltimore, Rutgers, New Stone, Nystate 
and Brown’s Special. The fruits were firm, and of 
good grade, and the vines were heavy and ex- 
ceedingly healthy. 
Landreths’ Red Rock—115 Days. This is a 
splendid late variety for canning. Plants and 
fruits are large and of good quality. 
Landreths’ Sunrise—95 Days. One of our own 
improvements in the Earliana Group. Fruits are 
good color and size, and smoother than regular 
strains of Earliana. Vines are robust and healthy. 
* MARGLOBE—100 Days. Landreths’ Strain of 
Marglobe is a vast improvement over the original 
stock, and has been perfected by individual plant 
selections. The fruits are globular in shape, deep 
red color and have solid internal structure. Lan- 
dreths’ Marglobe is most productive, yielding well 
over 10 tons per acre in many sections of the country. 
The vines are robust and as wilt-resistant as any 
variety we have ever seen. We recommend the 
Marglobe for market gardeners, home gardeners 
and canners. The seed which we offer is all grown 
by us in our own fields and they are an improved 
strain of the original stock obtained from the late 
Dr. Pritchard. 
Pear Shaped Red—100 Days. Small fruits shaped 
like a pear. 
Plum Shaped Red—100 Days. 2 inches long by 
< to 1 inch in diameter, the shape of a plum.
