890 Victor 
The Earliest Good-Sized Tomato 
An extra early variety of great popularity in 
many sections. It ripens large clusters of fine 
tomatoes all at once, well ahead of the main 
crop varieties. 
The tomatoes are of good size, smooth and 
solid. They ripen evenly to a brilliant scarlet 
color all over, with no green spots. 
The vine is sturdy, dwarf and compact and 
should be planted close to get more early fruit 
per acre. In sections where it does well, Victor 
is by far the best extra early tomato.

860 Gem (New) 
Well Worth a Trial for Early Crops. 
(See Photo on Front Cover.) 
We liked this distinct new tomato so well at the 
Geneva Experiment Station that we have 
grown a seed crop to offer our customers. The 
first fruit ripen almost as early as Valiant and 
close planting (3 x 4 or 2 x 5 ft.) gives heavy 
early yields. The dwarf compact vines set 
several large clusters of fruit near the center of 
the plant and these tend to ripen nearly all 
together, making Gem one of the easiest 
tomatoes to pick. 
They are of fine type—large, smooth and 
almost perfectly round—and hold their size 
and shape well all season. The color is an even 
pale green before ripening and turns to a good 
solid red. 
Gem should be grown on moist, fertile soil to 
get sufficient foliage coverage. N.Y. State Certified 
Seed of our own growing. See prices on page

STOKESDALE —The handsome shape is characteristic. 
TOMATOES—Continued on Next Page 

VALIANT —Heavy early yields—fine big tomatoes. 
889 Valiant 
Very Early—Large Fruit 
Our strain of Valiant wins more growers every 
year. It is very early, yet the tomatoes are 
smooth with a deep round shape and a solid 
meaty interior. They are so much larger and 
finer than the old Earliana that that variety 
has now been almost entirely displaced. Valiant 
colors up better and has superior quality. 
The vines have an open, spreading habit of 
growth, and do best when well fertilized and 
grown on fairly heavy soil. The yields are 
heavy, and Valiant is highly profitable for 
early market. Our strain is the true early type 
and we are pleased to offer N. Y. State Certified 
Seed produced here on our farms. See prices on 
page 33. 
888 Stokesdale 
Heavy Yielding Medium Early Type 
If you want a second early tomato that will pro- 
duce heavy crops of fine smooth fruit under 
almost all conditions, grow Stokesdale. Year 
after year, Stokesdale proves to be the most de- 
pendable variety of all the kinds we produce. The 
fruit ismediumsized, witha very uniform smooth, 
deep globe shape, bright scarlet color and fine 
quality. The fruit ripens evenly and is very free 
of cracks and blemishes. 
The yields are extremely heavy and the vines 
make a strong vigorous growth. Stokesdale is an 
all-purposetomato, excellent for market, shipping 
and canning. Our strain is by far the best obtain- 
able and we offer only N. Y. State Certified Seed of 
our own growing. See prices on page 33.
