CULTURE. Tomato seed should be started early, 
by March or early April in hot beds or in boxes 
or pots in the house. An extra transplanting 
into other pots or cold frames is beneficial for 
root development before finally setting outdoors, 
when it is warm. Do not crowd Tomato plants. 
You want short stocky plants rather than tall 
spindly ones. One ounce should produce 2500 
to 3000 plants. If set 36 x 24 inches apart you will 
need about 7200 per acre.

Bradley’s Cleveland Banner 
The Tomato of the Year 
4088 BRADLEY’S CLEVELAND BANNER. 
Never before have we experienced as much real 
pleasure in offering a new variety as we experience 
in offering this wonderful new Tomato originated 
by Mr. William FE. Vail of Yorktown Heights, 
N. Y., the originator of several excellent varieties 
which today are well known to almost all Tomato 
growers. It is with a great deal of pride that we 
offer to discriminating gardeners this latest result 
of Mr. Vail’s farsighted and painstaking work 
which he personally has named for Mr. Bradley. 
In our trial growings and in the propagation fields 
this marvelous tomato has excelled all other 
comparable sorts to the extent that it truly de- 
serves the attention of every gardener. The large 
uniform smooth dark crimson fruit ripen ten days 
ahead of other midseason sorts and continue in full 
fruit until frost. The slightly flattened globe- 
shaped fruits are very solid and meaty with very 
little acid content, making an ideal variety for 
canning or slicing. A vigorous grower, heavy 
producer and a fruit of fine appearance and ex- 
cellent quality. Bradley’s Cleveland Banner is 
destined to take its place among leading Tomato 
varieties. Pkt. Lic; '4 oz. 40c. Oz. '75c.
