mercial tomato except for Dixville. It is a high yielding variety with 
a smooth red skin, weighing 3 to 4 ounces. Every year we have raised 
this variety we have selected our stock seed from the earhest plants

others for an early market. tomato. Pkt. 15 cts.; 4% oz. 55 cts.; 1 oz.

NEW HAMPSHIRE 50—A UNH introduction. This is the latest de- 
velopment in high vitamin tomatoes. The fruit is round and very solid, 
deep red in color, and contains at least 50% more vitamin C than the 
High C tomato and therefore has more food value. In fact, one five- 
ounce tomato will carry your vitamin C requirements for a day. This 
plant is not a determinate and needs more room than Early Chatham 
or N. H. Victor. It rinens with New Hampshire Victor. I am sure you 
will like this variety. Seed is more plentiful this year. Pkt. 15 cts.;
