PENN STATE 
Showing the individual Tomato, 
(About three-fourths natural size) 
Extra-Early Penn State Tomato. This very excellent first-early Tomato, developed by Dr. C. 
E. Myers, Professor of Plant Breeding of Pennsylvania State 
Agricultural College and Experiment Station, and introduced exclusively by us, is, in our opinion, the best- 
quality, heaviest-yielding first-early Tomato, excepting no other. Our experience finds it ready for use in 
advance of Earliana, heretofore considered the earliest. Its tremendous yield of 20 tons per acre is double that of 
almost all other varieties. Its compact, determinate habit of plant-growth allows closer planting, 3 feet each way. 
The foliage protects the fruit from sun-scald, and conserves the moisture in the soil around the plants, thus enabling 
them to withstand more dry weather and high temperatures than others. The fruit, 314 to 4 inches in diameter, 
formed in clusters, is a beautiful rich scarlet, nearly globe-shaped, with deep red flesh, and very few seeds. We 
consider Penn State Tomato the best choice for first-early crop, and thousands of our customers everywhere 
have written us they think so, too. Our seed is produced from Dr. Myers’ stock seed. Prices are reduced this 
year. Pkt. 10 cts.; 3 pkts. 25 cts.; 12o0z. 35 cts.; oz. 65 cts.; 2 ozs. $1; 14Ib. $1.75; Mlb. $3; Ib. $5.75. 
Here is one of hundreds of letters of praise we get from our customers: 
“T have a roadside stand and I grow vegetables to sell. I have grown your 
Penn State Tomato now for four years. Last year I picked bushels and bushels. 
They are the best early, best yielding Tomato I ever grew. I will always 
plant Penn State for my early crop.’—DANIEL BAHN, Pennsylvania.
