BUCHANAN’S TOMATO SEEDS 
376—CERTIFIED RUTGERS (Rich Red) (Wilt and Rust Re- 
sistant) (72 days)—Rutgers produces a rather large plant, so 
strong that it withstands wind and rain better than any other 
variety, supporting its abundant crop perfectly. On good, rich 
land, heavy applications of nitrogen should not be made. 
Abundance of foliage serves as ample protection from sun- 
scald of the fruits. The fruits being larger than Marglobe, 
tend to flatten out more. The internal structure is as good 
as our Marglobe, having thick outer and inner walls, and 
very small seed cavities. The internal color is darker red 
than Marglobe. Rutgers makes juice of low acidity and fine 
flavor, intermediate between the sweet Marglobe and the 
very tart late varieties. It is a good canning tomato. Rutgers 
will yield as well as Marglobe, and on light, sandy soil will 
surpass this variety. 
Pkt., 10c; % 07z., 25c; 1 0oz., 40c; %4 Ib., $1.25; 1% Ib., $2.35; 
1 Ib., $4.50. 
394—GULF STATE MARKET WILT RESISTANT (Purplish 
Pink) (82 days)—We believe the Gulf State Market to be the 
chief purplish-pink fruited market variety grown in the Gulf 
States. The vines are very vigorous and withstand blight ex- 
ceptionally well. The fruits are large, true globe shaped, 
show but little depression about the stem and are smooth 
and free from cracks. It ripens uniformly well up to the 
stem. Very productive and an excellent commercial shipper. 
Pkt., 10c; 1%4 0z., 25c; 1 0oz., 40c; %4 Ib., $1.30; 1% Ib., $2.45; 
1 Ib.,- $4.75.

396—CERTIFIED BREAK O’DAY (Deep Scarlet) (Wilt and 
Rust Resistant) (70 days)—Its outstanding features are earli- 
ness and productiveness. It resembles Marglobe in shape, 
depth of fruit, thickness of wall and color, both inside and 
outside. The fruits are of medium size, deep, solid and almost 
seedless. 
Pkt., 10c; 14 0z., 30c; 1 0z., 50c; 14 Ib., $1.55; 14 Ib., $2.95; 1 Ib., 
$5.75. 
385—GOLDEN PONDEROSA (89 days)—A very large mild 
flavored, yellow fruited tomato, desirable for home gardens. 
Plants are large, spreading and strongly resistant to wilt. 
Fruits are similar in size and shape to the red Ponderosa 
and are quite solid with small seed cells. Its rich golden 
‘color emphasizes its individuality in salads and it satisfies 
the demand of those who do not like the acidity found in 
most of the red varieties. 
Pkt., 15c; 1%4 0z., 35c; 1 oz., 65ce; 14 Ib., $2.10; 14 Ib., $4.00; Gulf State Market 
1 Ib., $7.75.

CULTURE—The seed should be sown as soon as possible after 
danger of frost is over. When the plants are 6 inches high, trans- 
plant into rows 3 feet apart each way. 
365—WHITE BURLEY—Heavy yielding. Rich broad leaves. 
Easy to cure. Desirable for cut or plug tobacco. 
366—HA VANA—Large, long leaves. Of fine texture and de- 
lightful flavor. One of the earliest. 
Price, either variety—Pkt., 15c; 1% 0z., 45c; 1 0z., 75¢ 
SALSIFY—THE VEGETABLE OYSTER 
364—MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND—Plant seed in early 
spring in rich, loamy, deep soil and thin to 3 inches apart. 
Cultivate cleanly all summer and dig as needed through fall 
and winter. This is a large and vigorous strain with long, 
white tapering roots, less likely to branch, with flavor re- 
sembling oysters. Fine for home garden or market.
