new Pritchard is without doubt the best of 
the disease-resistant varieties. It resists the 
nail-head disease and also the tomato wilt.

searlet in color, of good size and shape, 
the fruits borne in clusters of 5 and pro- 
duced in abundance. It is a mid-season 
variety requiring about 110 days to ripen

Olds’ Tomato Seed is produced from tomatoes 
grown exclusively for seed. One packet will pro- 
duce 200 plants. Two to four ounces will pro- 
duce enough plants for an acre. Tomatoes do 
well in practically any garden soil. 
CULTURE: Start the seed indoors about the 
last of February. When 2 inches high transplant 
to 4 inches apart each way and again transplant 
to the open ground as soon as danger of freezing 
is over, in rows 8 to 6 feet each way. Some 
growers train the vines on trellises so that the 
fruit will ripen earlier. Use Sage Hi-Caps for 
this crop, listed below. The figure after the va- 
riety shows time of picking after setting plants.

Market Gardeners’ Price List, opposite page 5. 
431. BREAK O’ DAY. (70 days.) A new 

extra_early, wilt-resistant tomato developed by 
the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Break 0’ 
Day matures with Earliana. The fruit resembles 
the famous Marglobe; it is the same color, shape 
and size and is the only early tomato of a deep 
globe shape. The fruits are solid with very 
few seeds and they will not crack. A bountiful 
yielder. Not satisfactory on all soils. Pkt., 10c;

PLANT MUCH EARLIER 
GROWTH VERY RAPID— 
Growth is forced very rapidly from the start due to the even 
temperature and ideal growing conditions afforded by this plant 
cover. Moisture is retained, crusting prevented, and a perfect 
mulch maintained around each plant. With these advantages, a 
much larger and hardier plant is formed weeks earlier than 
normal. The first few weeks of plant life without proper protec- 
tion are beset with peril—frost, hail, wind, rain, sometimes heat, 
cut worms, insects, birds, animals—all take their toll. The SAGE 
HI-CAP has been scientifically and practically designed against 
these evils and the assurance of a large and earlier crop makes 
the purchase and placing costs of these ‘‘individual hothouses’’ 
of minor importance.

426. SCARLET DAWN. (70 days.) 
Wilt and rust resistant. Received Gold Medal 
Award in the 1935 All-America Contest. It is 
a cross of Clark’s Early on Marglobe and is 
earlier in season than both parents. The vine 
is of medium growth, fairly open, very pro- 
lific. Fruits are medium large, globular, 
smooth and free from flat sides and puffiness, 
Bright scarlet ripening well to the stem. Ex- 
ceptionally attractive. The picture shown 
above was taken of one cluster which con- 
tained 15 sound tomatoes. Some ripe, some 
just turning and others green but each free 
from cracks and sound. Pkt., 10c; Y% oz.,

445, EARLY BALTIMORE. (73 
days.) We have been watching with interest 
some of the new varieties of tomatoes being 
introduced by the various agricultural sta- 
tions. Early Baltimore appears to us as be- 
ing one of the best of the new introductions, 
It is a second-early variety, resistant to 
fuscarian wilt. The vine is somewhat smaller 
than regular Baltimore and the leaves are 
finely cut. Fruits are oblong, smooth, bright 
red, solid with small core and shallow basin 
at stem end. It is excellent for market gar- 
dens and canning. In our trials it appears to 
be particularly adapted for Northwest grow- 
ing conditions especially during hot and dry 
weather. We predict that this variety will 
ees very popular in the Northwest. Pkt.,
