539 CORNELL 456 LETTUCE 
Solid Crisp Head 
(76 days.) Head is extremely firm and brittle with less creamy colored in- 
terior than Imperial 44. It has invariably produced much better than Im- 
perial 44 or any other variety. More resistant to tip-burn than Imperial 44 
and makes firmer, fuller heads. It has given excellent results on muck land 
for late July and August maturity. You will make no mistake in planting 
Cornell 456. Pkt., 15c; oz., 60c; 14 lb., $1.50. 
66 FORDHOOK 242 BUSH LIMA BEANS 
All-America Award 
70 days. Many of the experiment stations in the East last year reported 
242” the heaviest yielder of all the large Bush Limas because of its ability 
to produce under adverse conditions and its excellent quality. “There is no 
appreciable difference in the shelled Bean from regular Fordhook.” It is 
rapidly gaining popularity and in 1942 and 1943 it out-yielded all other 
strains of Fordhook. Does well over greater part of the United States, 
primarily because it sets pods in hot weather much better than the original 
Fordhook. Pkt., 15c; 1% Ib., 30c; 1 Ib., 55c; 2 Ibs., $1.00; 5 Ibs., $2.50. 
590 LROQUOIS CANTALOUPE 
(85 days.) Resistant to Fusarium wilt, high quality. A new Melon devel- 
oped to meet the need of the Bender-type Melon. Iroquois has one wide in- 
dorsement, which is its uniformly excellent quality. It is still the only kind 
to plant on infected soil. To the grower who wants a medium sized Melon, 
we recommend Iroquois. Fruits are round to oval in shape with prominent 
ribs and good netting. The rind is 
thin, tough and holds up well. Fine 
texture, thick flesh, deep orange in 
color and has an excellent quality. 
Iroquois ripens about in season with 
Bender’s. The vigorous vines are 
prolific. Pkt., 15c; 14 oz., 35; 0z., 
60c; 14 Ib., $1.80. 
827 ROYAL 
ACORN SQUASH 
60 days. This variety is an im- 
provement over Table Queen or 
Acorn. The latter very often, under 
favorable conditions and on a rather 
thin soil, will grow too small, where- 
as the Royal or Mammoth will be 
probably one third to one-half again 
as large. The edible portion of the 
Royal or Mammoth Table Queen is 
considerably thicker than the origi- 
nal type. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; 14 Ib., 
70c; 14 Ib., $1.15. 
Fordhook 242 Bush Lima Bean 
888STOKESDALE 
TOMATO 
Certified Seed 
70 days. The largest med- ~ | 
ium early red Tomato. This 
is likely to be your most profi- 
Tomato. Stokesdale is 
one week earlier than Mar- 
globe, 10 days earlier than 
Rutgers. The most surprising 
thing is the universal adap- 
tability and prolific bearing. 
It is disease-resistant. Fruit 
averages 7 ounces, smooth, 
deep globe shape, very solid 
and brilliant red color. Be- 
cause of its fine quality and 
heavy yield it will have a 
place in the home garden as 
well as market, shipping and 
canning. Pkt., 10c; 146 oz., - : 
35c; 0z., 75c; 14 Ib., $2.00. Stokesdale (Certified) Tomato
