GARDEN for Pleasure, Alealth and THRIFT 
413—MARGLOBE (Certified). Requires 79 
days.. Cross between Livingston's Globe Tomato 
and a French variety by the name of Marvel. It 
is a bright red variety not only on the surface 
but all the way through. It is about the same 
size and shape as Livingston's Globe. One of 
the best features is its resistance to wilt and 
nail head rust. An excellent shipping and mar- 
ket variety. Has very small core. Pkt.; 10c; oz., 
35c; 14 lb., $1.10; lb., $3.75; 5 lbs., $15.50, post- 
paid. Please ask for prices in larger quantities. 
398—-PRITCHARD or SCARLET TOPPER. Re- 
quires 73 days. A cross between Marglobe and 
Cooper's Special; it inherited the good qualities 
of both parents. It is early, with large, smooth, 
meaty, very red, globular-shape fruit. Vines are 
medium, dense, erect and self-topping. Espe- 
cially bred up for a green wrapped tomato, also 
an excellent canner and it ripens well up to the 
stem end. It has a tendency to set a rather 
large number of fruits. It therefore requires 
either a naturally fertile soil or one well fertil- 
ized in order to size up the fruit properly and 
produce the maximum quantity of fruit per vine. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; 1/4 lb., $1.25; lb., $4.00, post- 
paid. Please ask for prices in larger lots.

395—NICHOLSON’S DALLAS. Matures in 
about 90 days. This wonderful tomato was 
originated by Wm. E. Vail of Yorktown Heights, 
New York, who has originated several other 
varieties of real merit and pronounces NICHOL- 
SON'S DALLAS one of the best. It is a cross of 
Marglobe and Ideal Red Globe. Fairly large in 
size, splendid globe shape, very smooth, solid 
and a heavy yielder. The vines are heavy 
enough to protect the fruit from sun scald. Our 
crop growing for seed created somewhat of a 
sensation and considerable interest has been 
shown by our grower, as well as other seeds- 
men, who inspected the crop. Regret that we 
are able to offer seed only in a small way 
again this season. Pkt., 10c; *oz., 40c; 1% lb.,

GARDEN HINTS 
1. Select garden plot with good soil— 
open to sunshine and on slope to south 
where possible. Locate near kitchen for 
convenience. 
2. Run rows north and south for ample 
sunshine. 
3. Lay out garden with an idea to pro- 
duce a neat and pleasing effect to the 
eye—also allow walking space for acces- 
sibility to various parts of garden. 
4. Select and sow only ‘‘'GOOD” seed, 
for they are really cheaper. Plant ‘’Nichol- 
son's Tested Seeds’’ for best results. Be 
careful to sow to proper depth and cover 
rightly for uniformity of growth. 
5. Don't let the “robbers” of the soil— 
WEEDS—get a head start on your garden. 
Use the hoe frequently to control weeds 
and conserve moisture, also 
roots to breathe. 
6. Best hours of the day to water plants 
are early morning or evening. If you 
should water during the day, be sure 
not to let water touch foliage. 
7. When transplanting be careful not 
to injure roots and keep plants covered 
while transplanting to avoid ‘’drying”’ of 
roots. 
8. Bugs are like weeds—if you detect 
them in time they cannot do much harm. 
Nicholson's has all the artillery and am- 
munition needed to kill them.
