BURGESS’ CRACK-PROOF 
The Perfect Tomato. 
74 days. The most outstanding Tomato introduction in years. As 
the name implies, Burgess’ Crack-Proof will not crack under average 
growing conditions and is practically free from cracking under the 
most adverse conditions. The truly perfect Tomato! i 
Burgess’ Crack-Proof Tomato is a thrifty second-early yariety, 
which bears over a long period. It bears large sub-globylar to glob- 
ular searlet fruits that are remarkably smooth and well finished from 
stem to blossom end. It has little or no objectionable cracks and 
skin blemishes that sometimes mar tomatoes and cause undue loss of 
the upper slice or two in preparation for 
salads and canning. 
The foliage of Burgess’ Crack-Proof is 
distinct from other large-fruited varieties 
and remains green throughout a long sea- 
son, permitting continuous heavy pickings 
of fruit until the plants are killed by frost 
in the fall. (Pkt. 15c) (1% oz. 45c) (oz. 80c)

Seedless Tomatoes and Bigger Crops 
You can grow seedless tomatoes by spraying the flowers on your tomato 
plants once a week for the first four weeks after blooming starts, with 
FRUITONE. The spray produces a bigger crop of earlier, sweeter and meatier 
tomatoes—mostly seedless. A 2-0z. package contains enough for 25 gallons of 
spray if you spray for an increase in production only; or 12 gallons if you 
spray for both increased production and seedless fruits. Package, $1.00, 
postpaid, :
