Olds’ Northern Grown Hybrid Tea Roses 
While the Hybrid Tea Roses are none too hardy in the North, 
nevertheless they give a wealth of bloom the first year planted that 
well repays the cost. It is very advisable to cover them well, or hill 
y up with soil, in the North, to carry them through the winter. Our 
q stock is hardy northern 2-year field grown.

Charles K. Douglas. 
TOMATO LETTUCE 
453. WISCONSIN 55. (75 days.) A 
tomato developed by Prof. J. C. Walker and 
his associates at the Wisconsin Experiment 
Station. Fruits are very large, smooth, slight- 
ly oblong, ripening a deep scarlet red color 
and very fleshy, Fruits average 65% larger 
than Stokesdale or John Baer and are more 
free of growth cracks. Vine growth is large, 
quite open and bears profusely until frost. 
While it is not fusarium wilt resistant, it is 
more tolerant to defoliation leaf blight than 
John Baer and shows considerable resistance 
to blossom end rot. Pkt., 10c; 4% oz., 40c; 
0z., 70c; 1% 1b., $2.60, postpaid. 
Wisconsin 55 Tomato, 
Wisconsin Golden No. 800 Sweet Corn. 
136. WISCONSIN GOLDEN NO. 800. 
(75 days.) Exceptionally high quality second 
early hybrid sweet corn released in 1948 by the 
Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. We 
grew this variety in trials for several years prior 
to its release, and for quality we consider it 
absolutely tops. The slender uniform ears con- 
taining eight rows of tender, sweet flavored ker- 
nels are very uniform, averaging from seven to 
eight inches in length. Fine for canning, and ex- 
cellent for freezing on the cob as the cob is very 
small. A fine companion variety to plant with 
Gold Rush Hybrid, which is about a week earlier. 
Pkt., 15c; % Ib., 45c; Ib., 80c; 2 Ibs., $1.50; 
5 lbs., $3.20, postpaid, 
221. OLDS' OAKLEAF. (45 days.) 
A lettuce we introduced in 1917 and is today 
the best loose leaf lettuce for the home gar- 
den. Olds’ Oakleaf Lettuce is a distinct type. 
It forms a close center with rather loose 
outer leaves; medium sized and medium green, 
The leaves are deeply lobed in the middle 
and the middle lobe is long like a finger, 
giving the plant a peculiar appearance. The 
quality is excellent, but its most important 
recommendation is that it does not get bitter 
with age. It is the one variety that is excel- 
lent late in the summer when other varieties 
are of poor quality. Pkt., 10; oz., 30c; %4 
lb., 90c; 1b., $2.60, postpaid.
