SPECIAL HANDLING for Vegetable Plants 
Plant shipments marked ‘‘Special Handling”’ are usually sent 
through a little more quickly by the Post Office. An extra fee must

postage for each mailing. 
The extra amounts to be paid are approximately as follows:

TOMATO PLANTS 


ted tomato plants are grown and shipped in No. 
21% “Fertile Pots’ (see page 84) which are set 
in the ground, pots and all, without disturbing 
the roots or checking their growth. At the 
time the plants reach the purchaser the pots 
are soft and resemble earth, and the roots 
grow through them readily. When set out, the 
top of the pot should be at least two inches 
below the surface of the soil. 
Our potted plants are large, strong and 
stocky. They are hardened in cold frames so 
can be set out early. The photograph to the right 
shows their fine sturdy growth. (We cannot 
ship less than 12 plants.) 
We can supply the following varieties: — 
Victor, Valiant, John Baer, Bonny Best 
and Rutgers. xi

NEW WHITE HOT. This extraordinary new type of our introduction is so much better than ordin-

radish, plant this hew type.
