MAIN CROP 
(77 DAYS) 
RUTGER’S 
Favorite for Canning 
765. We introduced this great tomato 11 years ago and 
it has been growing in popularity ever since. It is the 
best, large, red, main crop tomato of them all. It is the 
most dependable big crop tomato, too. The fruits are 
large and the quality is unsurpassed. The plants are 
strong and have just enough foliage to protect the 
fruits from sun scald. The large, bright scarlet tomatoes 
ripen from the inside out, evenly all the way through. 
The deep red, solid flesh is exceptionally fine for slicing 
and canning. No hard cores. They hold their large uni- 
form size and keep bearing clear up until frost hits 
them in late fall. We had Rutger’s Tomatoes this year 
from our own vines up until early in October. You'll 
get a larger yield from Rutger’s than any other variety 
we know of. An all around, all purpose, home garden 
tomato.

RED CLOUD 
Made wonderful records again last year 
against very unfavorable conditions. 
761. .(57 days.) You have never seen a tomato like Red 
Cloud. When the picture above was taken there were 83 
Red Clouds on that one vine. Two pickings had already 
been made. (Foliage was tucked under to show the toma- 
toes.) Red Cloud tomatoes are firm, smooth, meaty, and 
medium size... exactly the kind you prefer for slicing 
and canning. And you can see fiow easy they are to find 
and to pick. Red Cloud ripens unbelievably early! Plants 
set out early in May yield some ripe tomatoes in Mid- 
July and will be in tull production by August Ist. Three 
to four weeks earlier than Rutger! You can be eating 
Red Cloud out of your garden when tomatoes are selling 
for 7c to 10c apiece. Order Today.

TOMATOES 
CULTURE: 1 packet produces 100 plants; 1 ounce about 1500 
plants. Four or five weeks ahead of when you want to set plants 
in the garden start the seed in a hotbed or small box in the win- 
dow. Plant rows 3 inches apart, cover % to ™% inch deep. When 
plants are 1 inch high transplant to 1 inch apart each way. When 
all danger of frost is past set the plants in the garden 3 to 4 
feet apart each way. 
NEW HYBRID EARLY BIRD 
Vigorous Producer of Fine Early Fruit 
752. This hybrid was bred specifically to bring you a 
prolific yielder of extra early tomatoes. Hybrid Early 
Bird is from 10 days to 2 weeks earlier than main crop 
varieties. It has the great hybrid vigor to come on fast 
and repeatedly set an abundant lot of fruit. The toma- 
toes are medium large, smooth, and, unlike some of the 
early varieties, they are solid and meaty. This extra 
earliness and hybrid vigor are insurance for you. Don’t 
put all your eggs in one basket. Plant some of this new 
early hybrid as well as your favorite main crop variety.

SIOUX 
Smoothest Large Early Tomato 
762. (65 days.) You can count dozens of big smooth 
tomatoes on the Sioux vine above. The foliage was re- 
moved to show you what a wonderful set of fine fruit 
you can expect from this new variety. The fruit is large, 
extra smooth, and much more meaty-solid than the old 
varieties. Sioux ripens uniformly to a beautiful bright 
red (no green shoulders or spots) and the flavor is truly 
delicious. Be sure you: have Sioux in your garden this 
year. You'll agree it is a great variety.
