Tomatoes 
CULTURE—Plant seed in box inside or in hot- 
bed from February 15 to March 1. Transplant May 
10 to 20; rows 6 feet wide and 5 to 6 feet in rows; 
use light, loamy soil, well cultivated and fertilized. 
NEW JUBILEE (See back cover)—Originated by 
W. Atlee Burpee and awarded Bronze Medal in 1943 
All-America trials. Large globe-shaped fruit of 
deep orange color. The flesh is very solid, deep 
orange in color and of fine flavor. Good for slic- 
ing, canning or juice. We grew it in our trial 
grounds and recommend it highly. Pkt. 15c; i oz. 60c. 
*GILL’S SELECTED EARLIANA—For years we 
have given personal selection to this strain and be- 
lieve we now have the largest and smoothest first 
early tomato yet offered. The fruit is of bright deep 
red color, rather thick from stem to blossom and 
unusually solid. Owing to the fact that it is a shy 
seeder we must ask more for the seed than other 
sorts. Do not confuse this with the ordinary strains 
of Earliana. Reports from the large growers claim 
this is the best strain of Earliana they have tried. 
Also reports from hot climates indicate it is unusu- 
ally successful. One grower picking continuously 
from July until November; storing green ones then 
for December supplies. This is made possible by a 
minimum of cracked fruits. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 
4 oz. 25c; oz. 75c; 4 Ib. $2.00. 
*HILL SELECTED EARLIANA—Saved from spe- 
cial plants marked in the field. Postpaid. Pkt. 25c; 
41 oz. $1.25; 4 oz. $2.25; oz. $4.00. 
*WASATCH BEAUTY (See back cover)—In 1939, 
we introduced this remarkable tomato. It is early 
in maturity and very heavy bearing. The branches 
terminate in a cluster of fruit making a compact 
plant and more plants may be set per acre. The 
fruit is round, firm and smooth; of a beautiful 
red color, and borne in clusters of ‘three to six 
good sized tomatoes. It is an especially good 
shipping and canning variety. Both market and 
home gardeners should try this outstanding new 
tomato. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 41 oz. 35c; 4% oz. G60c; 
oz. $1.00; 4 Ib. $3.00.

*PEPPER TOMATO. (See back cover)—We have 
selected this for several seasons and now have 
heavy yields of large, smooth fruit, ideal for mar- 
ket. It is very resistant to rain cracks. Practically 
every fruit is smooth, running from globe to ob- 
long shape, and they are exceptionally solid, con- 
taining very little seed. The fruit is red with a 
pink tone and the sweetest of any we have tried, 
being unusually free of acid. Ideal for tomato 
juice and by far the best for slicing. Postpaid.
