90 days. Tf it is size you want, 
and just a luscious, deliciously 
gZood, all around tomato, then you 
must plant Peak of Perfection! 
We gave free seeds of this’ to- 
mato to our customers and friends 
in 1927 under the name of New 
Wonder and offered prizes for the 
largest tomato grown and for the 
_ best name for this beauty. Mr. 
Acro Castle, Hueysville, Ky., won 
the prize of $25.00 cash for the 
largest tomato with a weight of 4 
pounds 7 ounces. Think of a mon-' 
ster tomato like that! Mr. Albert 
F. Quick, R.D. 2, Box 248, Elgin, 
Illinois, writes, “The Peak of Per- 
fection Tomato was very satisfac- 
tory. My wife thinks your concern 
is the best in the land.” Mr. Ervin 
L. Chapman, 427 Beech St., Petos- 
key, Mich., writes: “I like Peak of 
Perfection Tomato. We have been 
. planting your seeds since 1902.” 
Peak of Perfection is practically 
free from seeds. The tomatoes are 
of a beautiful appearance, uni- 
formly large and smooth, with a 
rich dark crimson:sskin, meaty, and 
have a delicious, melting flavor. 
All esteem it the finest flavored to- 
mato they have ever eaten. But 
combined with this delicious flavor 
is the enormous size! 1131—Salzer’s

SENSATIONAL 
BY 
58 days. Sensational was intro- 
duced by Salzer’s in 1946. It has 
earlimess, solidarity, perfect 
smoothness, large size, and it is a 
tremendous yielder! We believe it 
will eclipse any early tomato 
grown today. It was developed by 
Mr. William EE. Vail, Yorktown 
Heights, N. Y. The cool summer 
and cloudy days of 1945 retarded 
tomatoes, but Sensational came 
through well and outyielded ali 
other varieties! Seed was planted 
at Cliffwood Farms on June 6 and 
the first tomatoes were picked on 
August 25—81 days from seed to 
ripe fruit! The tomatoes are red, 
with firm flesh, meaty, smooth, and 
of sub-acid flavor! Heavy yielder. 
Fine for tomato juice. 1121—Pkz.,
