TOMATOES — Continued 
867 John Baer—Improved Strain 
Our N. Y. Certified John Baer is well recog- 
nized as the finest strain of this old favorite 
variety. It will produce larger fruit and more 
tons of fine tomatoes to the acre than any 
strain we have ever seen. The fruit is large for 
this variety, smooth and deep red throughout, 
coloring right up to the stem. The vines are 
vigorous and healthy and produce heavy crops. 
We regard Improved John Baer as one of the 
best medium early tomatoes, and can rec- 
ommend it highly both for market and canning.

RUTGERS —A single cluster from our crop. 
868 Longred 
Not a Long Tomato but a Good Round One, for 
a Long Season—(See Photo on Front Cover.) 
Another fine variety from Prof. Tapley at 
Geneva, Longred is a main crop type, ripening 
a little later than John Baer and very heavy 
yielding. The fruit are good-sized, about like 
Stokesdale, and are very solid and heavy with 
deep globe shape and exceptionally smooth and 
uniform appearance. The color is good both 
inside and out, and the green fruit have the 
distinct pale color that goes with even-ripening 
and comparatively little cracking. We expect it 
to be popular on the market and with canners. 
Ample foliage is combined with ease of pick- 
ing on the vigorous plants. Longred tends 
to set fruit very freely, resulting in heavy 
yields at each picking. We are pleased to 
offer New York State Certified Seed grown here 
on our farms. See prices on next page. 
875 Pritchard’s Scarlet Topper 
Also Called ‘‘Pritchard”’ 
Because of its fine quality and beautiful 
appearance this tomato has become one of 
our most popular market varieties. Our 
strain, raised here in the North for many 
years, is outstanding for size, vigor, yield 
and earliness. 
Ripening just after John Baer this heavy 
yielder has a fine red color all the way 
through its remarkably solid flesh. It is 
quite free from cracking and the quality is 
extra fine—mild and without acidity. 
The plants are robust but not of rank 
growth. We offer the finest N. Y. State Certi- 
fied Seed of our own growing. See prices on 
next page. 
885 Rutgers—Harris’ Northern Grown Strain 
The Best Main Crop Tomato 
In our opinion Rutgers is the finest main crop tomato grown today. It combines large size, solid 
structure, fine flavor and a beautiful rich red color that goes all through the fruit, making it excel- 
lent for both market and canning. The vines are large and very husky and stand up well even late 
in the season; they bear tremendous crops of fine heavy fruit. 
Our strain has been grown and selected here in the North for years and has proved to be the 
best strain obtainable. The earliness and yield, the uniformly large size and smooth even shape 
of the fruit have all been improved as a result of careful breeding on our farm ever since this fine 
variety was introduced. New York State Certified Tomato Seed of our own growing. See prices on next 
page.
