Kilgore’s 
GROTHEN’S RED GLOBE. (70 days.) ‘This is a very early 
maturing, high yielding variety especially well adapted for fall 
planting in Florida, where our strain was developed. All of 
our production is now based on lines developed, selected, and 
produced at our Florida breeding station. The plants are of 
open growth with rather small foliage requiring rich, deep, 
moist land for best results, maturing fruits about 12 days earlier 
than Rutgers, and ripening to a beautiful red color. A heavy 
producer of smooth, deep globe-shaped, large fruits, sizing up 
well clear to the top of the plants, producing a very high per- 
centage of fancies. The fruits are firm and solid, and the 
interior ripens slowly, making this variety an exceptionally 
good shipper. Earliness and high yields of large fruits, of ex- 
cellent shipping quality, are the main factors recommending 
this variety. It does not do so well on light sandy soils, but is 
especially recommended for a fall, winter and early spring crop 
in Florida and is well suited to deep, wet glades, hammock, and 
rich sandy loam soils. 
Pkt. 10c; 14 oz. 35c; oz. 60c; 14 Ib. $1.90; 1 Ib. $7.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $6.90 per Ib. 
PRITCHARD (SCARLET TOPPER). (75 days.) Vines me- 
dium dense, compact, erect, self-topping. Fruits mature very 
early, several days earlier than Marglobe, are large, smooth, 
meaty, globular in shape and ripen uniformly to a very deep 
attractive red color, both exterior and interior. This variety is 
a heavy cropper and therefore requires rich or liberally fer- 
tilized moist soil. Does especially well on Everglades muck. 
Pkt. 10c; 14 oz. 30c; 02. 55c; 14 Ib. $1.65; 1 lb. $6.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $5.90 per Ib. 
LIVINGSTON’S GLOBE. (80 days.) An improved strain of 
the old Livingston’s Globe variety, popular in the Gulf States 
for many years. Our improved strain is very productive of 
fancy, perfectly globe-shaped fruits, holding their large size 
and shape until the last pickings. Ripens to a beautiful deep 
pink. 
Pkt. 10c; 14 02. 30c; 02. 55c; %4 Ib. $1.65; 1 Ib. $6.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $5.90 per Ib. 
Improved Grothen’s 
Red Globe Tomatoes 

MARGLOBE. (77 days.) This is an excellent strain of the 
old standard type of Marglobe. It produces a heavy, vigorous 
plant growth, partially resistant to nailhead rust, Fusarium 
wilt and other diseases. The deep globe-shaped, smooth fruits 
are heavy, thick walled, firm or solid, and are free of navel and 
blossom-end scars. The ridging at stem end has been practically 
eliminated. We have made selections for larger fruit size. Fruit 
ripens to a beautiful deep scarlet-red color. Our Bred-Rite 
strain consistently produces a high percentage of fancy fruits 
which results in fancy prices. Well adapted to and recom- 
mended for north Florida. 
Pkt. 10c; 1% oz. 30c; 02. 55c; 4 Ib. $1.65; 1 Ib. $6.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $5.90 per Ib. 
KILGORE’S NEW WILT RESISTANT GROTHEN GLOBE 
(new). (70 days.) This new strain of Grothen Globe has been 
developed from a cross of Pan America and regular Grothen’s 
Globe which was made about seven years ago by the Kilgore 
Seed Company. It has been selected and reselected and tested 
for the past six years, until it has the uniformity and resistance 
required to release it to the trade for the first time this coming 
season. Wilt Resistant Grothen Globe possesses all the good 
qualities of the regular Grothen’s Globe, and in addition it is 
very resistant to Fusarium Wilt. In numerous comparative 
trials between Wilt Resistant and regular Grothen’s Globe, 
even where wilt was not a factor, the Wilt Resistant strain 
yielded just as high as the regular strain. This wilt resistant 
strain is especially recommended for wilt infested soils where 
the regular Grothen’s Globe and other varieties cannot be 
grown successfully. 
Pkt. 10c; 1% 02. 35c; oz. 65c; 14 Ib. $2.15; 1 Ib. $7.50 
5 to 25 Ibs. $7.40 per Ib. 
OXHART. (90 days.) A smooth, thick, tender and almost 
seedless pink-fruited tomato of delicious flavor. Rich soil adds 
greatly to its productiveness. This is an ideal variety for the 
home garden and for the local market. 
Pkt. 15c; 14 oz. 65c; oz. $1.25; 14 Ib. $4.00; 1 Ib. $15.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $14.90 per Ib. 
PONDEROSA. (Brimmer.) (88 days.) A very large, pink- 
fruited variety. The fruits are more or less flattened, very solid 
and meaty with few seeds, and of splendid edible quality. 
Recommended only for home gardens because its unusual size 
and weight are disadvantages in shipping. 
Pkt. 10c; 14 02. 45c; 02. 85c; 4 Ib. $2.75; 1 Ib. $10.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $9.90 per Ib.
