Certified Master Marglobe 
384—CERTIFIED MASTER MARGLOBE (Bright Deep Red) 
(Wilt and Rust Resistant) (80 days)—Master Marglobe has 
been perfected by individual plant selection. We believe 
this strain is without doubt the most perfect all-purpose 
Tomato thus far. Its large, nearly round, smooth, solid fruits 
are ideal for home use and local market. It also ranks first 
as a green wrapped shipper. The flavor will please the most 
discriminating taste. The partitions which divide the small 
seed cavities and the outer wall are thick, meaty and firm. 
Vine is sturdy, carrying the fruit well, with sufficient foliage 
to protect its fruit. In Master Marglobe we offer a tomato, 
probably the most resistant to wilt, rust and blight.

Certified Greater Baltimore 
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.

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.

BUCHANAN’S TOMATO SEEDS 
CULTURE—Six or eight weeks before frost is over, sow % inch 
deep in hot-beds, in pots or shallow boxes in the house, and when 
they have made 4 leaves, transplant to boxes or pots to prornote 
root growth. Expose as much as possible to harden them so that, 
when set out in the open ground, they will be strong and stocky, 
but do not allow the growth to be checked. Transplant 3 to 4 feet 
apart in a light, warm soil, and shade them a few days until they 
are well rooted. One ounce makes about 1,000 strong plants; 4 
ounces will make plants for an acre. 
FOR FIELD PLANTING—Set plants 3 feet apart in rows 4 feet 
apart; require 3,600 plants to acre. 
Maturity estimated from time plants set in field.
