Harris’ New York State Certified 
Tomato Seed 
Our Certified Tomato Seed is all grown on our own farms in 
comparatively small fields that have our careful individual 
attention. 
For years we have made a specialty of raising tomato seed of the 
best possible quality from pedigreed stocks on our own farm 
here in the North. In 1935 we pioneered in producing the first 
crops of New York State Certified tomato seed to be grown. 
Again this year our tomato seed crops have been inspected by 
representatives of the New York Seed Improvement Cooperative 
Association, which is by law the official seed certifying agency 
in this State, and have fully passed their very strict requirements 
for trueness to type, purity of variety and freedom from disease. 
BONNY BEST. Harris’ Special Strain. This magnificent early variety 
should be largely planted for home use and market. The fruit ripens 
only a week later than Earliana and the plants produce enormous crops 
of beautiful, smooth, high colored fruit, practically all of which ripen 
before the vines are killed by frost. 
The tomatoes are of good size, only slightly smaller than Improved 
John Baer, smooth as an apple and a deep scarlet color which extends 
right up to the stem without any green tinge. There is no finer strain 
of Bonny Best than the seed we offer, no matter what price is charged.

- believe this is the best extra early tomato yet developed. 
It ripens enormous crops of large smooth solid fruit even earlier than 
the old extra early kinds. See full description on page 6.

EARLIANA. Harris’ Extra Early Strain. We have bred this strain 
of Earliana tomato for many years until now we have it so perfected 
that it not only ripens as early as any other strain of this variety, but 
is also much smoother and more regular in size and shape and colors 
better around the stem. This tomato is very early and the fruit is 
solid and meaty.

John Baer Bonny Best 
Typical cluster of this widely used Smooth, firm fruit of finest quality. 
canning and market variety. 
JOHN BAER. Improved Strain. Heavy Yielding. One of the 
most reliable sorts for canning, home garden and 
market. Ours is the Geneva strain which produces immense crops of 
smooth, handsome fruit larger than most strains of this variety. 
The fruit is solid, deep red all through, and produced in great clusters. 
It is early enough to ripen the whole crop before frost in a normal 
season. 
We find by carefully conducted trials and reports of critical growers 
that our strain of John Baer is fully equal to any stock of this 
variety obtainable and far superior to most of them.

“TIT had excellent results from my garden last year entirely 
from your seeds and plants. They lived up to my greatest hopes. 
The tomatoes especially were admired by everyone who saw our 
garden.” Harold N. Bates, Auburndale, Mass., March 21, 1942.
