Ferry-Morse bred and selected strains of Tomato seed have long been recognized by 
critical canners, growers and shippers as outstanding in vigor, uniformity, and yield 
of No. 1 fruits. Aside from our co-ordinated breeding programs, conducted on our trial 
grounds in widely separated areas, much of this success is due to the fact that Ferry- 
Morse is one of the few if not the only major grower producing commercial tomato 
seed crops on acreage completely controlled and carefully supervised by the company 
and its growing staff. Specially developed canning strains, and the nationally recognized 
shipping strains attest to the wisdom of this effective control and supervision of our 
crops.
