TOMATO 
Red Varieties 
(E] VALIANT. 65 days 
from plant setting. This 
new variety is the most 
promising of the very 
early sorts. The vigor- 
ous, spreading plant 
does very well in this 
area. It is a heavy pro- 
ducer of smooth, good 
quality fruits averaging 
about 7 ounces each, 
which continue to ripen 
over a long period. It is 
particularly recom- 
mended for heavy soils 
where Victor does not 
perform well. Pkt., 15c; 
4 oz., 30c; 0z., 90c; 44 
Valiant Ib., $2.40. 
VICTOR. 65 days from plant setting. Where this variety does 
well, it produces a great abundance of extra early, most at- 
tractive Tomatoes with large clusters ripening all at once. The 
fruits are of good size, smooth, solid and fine color. The vines 
are small and are usually planted close (2x3 ft.). Pkt., 15c; 14 
oz., 30c; oz., 90c; 14 lb., $2.40. 
[E] STOKESDALE. 70 days from plant setting. The best of the 
scarlet-red, second early Tomatoes maturing about a week 
earlier than Marglobe, Pritchard, John Baer, etc. It bears a 
prolific crop of medium sized, very solid, high quality fruits 
on an open type plant. A particularly good market garden va- 
riety. Pkt., 15c; 14 0z., 25c; oz., 75c; 14 lb., $2.20; lb., $7.50. 
BONNIE BEST. 73 days from plant setting. Unexcelled, general- 
purpose Tomato. The handsome, medium sized fruits are flat- 
tened, globe-shaped, smooth, bright scarlet and of excellent 
quality. The plant is medium in size, valuable for forcing 
under glass. Much used in this area for canning and shipping. 
Pkt., 10c; 14 0z., 25c; oz., 85¢; 44 Ib. $2.10. 
JOHN BAER. 73 days from plant setting. This very reliable old 
favorite is very similar to Bonnie Best in both plant and fruit. 
Pkt., 10c; 14 oz., 25c; oz., 85c; 44 Ib., $2.10. 
{E] PRITCHARD OR SCARLET TOPPER. 75 days from plant 
setting. One of the best midseason varieties. The robust plants 
are self topping and wilt-resistant, bearing a heavy, continuous 
crop of large, globe-shaped, solid fruits which color well even 
on the stem end_and ripen without cracking. Its excellent, mild 
flavor makes it most desirable for both home and market gar- 
dens. Pkt., 15c; 14 oz., 30c; oz., 90c; 14 Ib., $2.20.
