drop; makes blossoms set fruit chemically. Tomatoes ripen earlier, 
are Jarger, firmer, more delicious—many SEEDLESS. A hormone 
yield regular varieties, the extra quantities coming, in- 
large measure, from the soil. It can be readily understood 
that because Hybrid Tomatoes have the ability to produce 
larger plants and higher yield they must be fed more than 
standard tomatoes. Therefore, to produce a maximum - 
spray, U.S.D.A. tested. Easy to use; apply with ordinary sprayer.

fertility and moisture in your soil. For this purpose, it is 
desirable to make your fertilizer application at the time of

bloom or set their first fruit. Water during dry spells.

Each hybrid tomato seed is produced by hand pollina- 
tion which requires a great deal of work and entails a 
heavy expense. We strongly urge that special care and at- 
tention be-given to the sowing of the seed and the growing 
of the crop. Extra care will repay you in better fruits and 
a bigger yield.
