Victor (The New Extra Early Tomato). The vine is a sturdy deter- 
minate type, that can be planted close together (2x8 ft.) and thus 
have more early fruit per acre. If you want extra early Tomatoes, 
be sure to grow Victor. Victor has large clusters of beautiful Toma- 
toes ripening all at once. Pkt. 10c., oz. 60c., 14 lb. $1.75, lb. $6.00 
Stokesdale. ~h¢ largest medium early red Tomato. Very solid, of fine 
quality and very prolific. The fruit is of excellent deep color, coloring 
well all over. In season it is medium early ripening about with Bonny 
Best. Because of its good quality and very heavy yield we believe 
this Tomato has a place for market, shipping and canning.
