436. Wood’s Improved Ponderosa F2°tsteak rome Guy 
Brimmer was introduced, Ponderosa was the outstanding tomato 
in size and quality. Unfortunately, the old Ponderosa was rough 
and uneven. In our improved strain the tendency to produce 
rough fruits has been overcome without in any way sacrificing 
the many fine qualities that made this fine tomato famous. The 
plants are healthy and luxuriant, quite blight-resistant and con- 
tinuous and abundant bearers. They are so vigorous that even in 
dry seasons we have grown tomatoes of unusual size. The fruits 
are practically all meat, with exceptionally few seeds. If trained 
to a single stem, tomatoes weighing a pound or more are not 
unusual. Color, purplish pink. 
Pkt. 10c; 0z. 80c; %4 Ib. $2.75; 1b. $10.00; 2-lb. lots $9.75 per lb.. 
postpaid. Supply limited. 
¥ Bright Red. (95 Days)—Almost as early as 
421. Valiant Spark’s Harliana and smoother. A money fe okee 
for market growers who can make the crop before very hot 
weather. The fruits are smooth as an apple, average 7 ounces, 
and are of the Marglobe type. Because of its sparse foliage early 
planting is recommended so the fruits may be ready for market 
before there is too much danger of sunburn. Market growers for 
the Richmond market prefer it to all other varieties. For best 
results and most perfect fruit, early plantings should be staked. 
Pkt. 10c; 02. 60c; 14 1b. $2.00; 1b. $7.50, postpaid.

summer heat, ripens 
evenly to the stem
