BISON c. 
52 days. Introduced by the North Dakota Experiment Station. This variety starts ripen- se 
ing about the same time as Karly Chatham, but the fruits do not all ripen in a short time. 
They ripen over a longer season and ripen with slightly green markings around the stem 5 
end, which is preferred by some growers. Plants may be started early and transplanted to __ 
the field in full bloom without retarding their growth, and ripe tomatoes may be picked — 
in much less time than 52 days. The red fruits are smooth, solid, meaty and of medium size.
