Tomato — the King op the Garden 
(Tomato) 
The Tomato is truly the king of the garden. No other fruit is more appetizing 
and can be prepared in so many delightful ways. It carries within it immeasurable 
health-giving elements; science has discovered the Tomato to be rich in vitamins 
A, B and C. The Tomato is tonic whether served as vegetable, fruit or juice. And, 
too, no other cultivated plant bears as long and so productively. For early fruit 
the seed should be planted thinly in hot beds or in boxes indoors. Harden plants 
by exposing to the air occasionally. It requires about six weeks’ time for the plants 
to become large enough for transplanting. One ounce will produce about 1500

have received more complimentary letters from 
our customers on this tomato than any we 
have ever handled. The fruits are large, 
smooth, red, heavily meated and globular in 
shape. It is as early as Earliana, 10 to 12 
days earlier than Marglobe, and a heavier 
yielder than either. Break O'Day is an excel- 
lent shipper. All tests have proven that the 
fruits very seldom crack and are not affected 
by sun scald; vines are practically free from 
blossom-end rot, and even when planted with 
other sorts that would be affected as much as 
90 per cent. The open spreading vine with 
small leaves is wilt resistant and sets fruits 
freely. Pkt., 15c; oz., 75c; 1/, Ib., $2.25; lb.,

399—ITALIAN CANNER TOMATO. Re- 
uires 73 days. We offer you this plum- 
shaped tomato, much larger in size than 
the small preserving tomato of similar 
shape. Has very thick walls of solid meat 
with a limited seed cavity, making it an 
excellent variety for canning, tomato 
paste, catsup, etc. It is a continuous 
bearer. This sort contains very little 
juice. The outside is a bit blocked or 
boxed in shape. This, with solid meated 
walls, makes it different. We believe that 
it is worthy of trial and a limited plant-
