Marglobe Tomato 
TOMATO—Early Varieties (Continued) 
Stokesdale 70 days 
An excellent second early variety. Fruits 
are scarlet, ripening from the inside out. 
Quality is good. Shape is a deep globe. 
Fruits are slightly larger than Marglobe. 
Vines have moderately heavy foliage. Rec- 
ommended for home gardeners and as a can- 
ning and shipping tomato. 
Victor 68 days 
A new, first early, self-topping variety 
developed by Dr. A. F. Yeager of Michigan 
State College. Plants compact with scant 
open foliage—slightly larger than Bison. 
Fruits deep globe, smooth, very light green 
when young, ripening evenly to a bright 
red completely up to stem. Fruits are larger, 
smoother, deeper and better colored than 
Bison. Similar to Bounty. 
Main Crop Varieties 
Brimmer (Same as Ponderosa) 
Crimson Cushion (Beefsteak) 88 days 
A scarlet “sport” from Ponderosa and 
resembles the original stock except that the 
color is a brilliant crimson-scarlet. The very 
large fruits are carried in clusters of 4 to 6. 
Flesh is very solid and meaty, making it a 
fine table sort. — 
Dwarf Champion 86 days 
Medium size, purplish-pink, nearly round 
fruit. Plant grows like a tree and some- 
times called ‘‘Tree Tomato.” Stems are short, 
thick and almost self-supporting. May be 
grown quite close together where space is 
limited. 
Dwarf Stone 92 days 
The largest bright red, dwarf, tree sort. 
A great favorite with home gardeners. A 
late variety producing solid, smooth fruit. 
Golden Queen 84 days 
A main crop, large, smooth, bright yellow 
tomato, some times with a slight blush of 
red. Very productive and possesses a flavor 
superior to the red sorts, as it has less acid. 
Greater Baltimore 80 days 
A red fruited, medium large, solid tomato 
somewhat more desirable than the Stone in 
that it is a little earlier and more pro- 
ductive. Plants are strong, continuous crop- 
pers, bearing until killed by frost. No ridges 
or cracks, making it an ideal canner. 
Marglobe (Wilt Resistant) 7/7 days 
This well known and very popular tomato 
was developed by the U. S. Dept. of Agri- 
culture and thoroughly tested in sections 
where wilt is present, meeting with great 
success. Produces medium _ size, smooth, 
deep globe shape, meaty, bright red fruits 
in clusters of 5 to 7. A heavy producer and 
excellent for market gardeners—also fine 
for home gardens. Most popular shipping 
variety today. 
New Stone 86 days 
A medium late, scarlet fruited variety. 
Fruits large, deep flattened. Plants vig- 
orous and prolific. Excellent for canning and 
home garden. 
Norton, Wilt Resistant Stone 88 days 
Fruits medium size, smooth, solid, scarlet- 
red. Selected from the Stone by U. S. Dept. 
of Agriculture. A heavy producer on wilt- 
infested soils or on soils free of wilt. Excel- 
lent for canning. A long distance shipper 
and very satisfactory for home gardens. 
Oxheart 90 days 
Fruits, large, smooth, purplish pink, al- 
most seedless. Flesh is very thick and de- 
licious. The name is derived from its shape 
which is large at stem end, tapering almost 
to a point. Vine growth open and spreading, 
fruits setting in clusters of 3 to 7. A fine 
variety which is deservedly popular.
