A new variety that looked unusually good at the N. C. Experimental Station at Method last sum- mer. The soil in the tomato plots is heavily in- fected with fusarium wilt and all varieties in the comparison test died by mid-season, except Manapal, Marion and Homestead. Manapal looked the best of the three varieties. It also has field immunity to gray leaf spot and 4 races of leaf mold. Most fruits range from 5.5 to 7 ounces (the size preferred by shippers), smooth at both ends and slightly larger around than from stem to blossom end, but this feature is strongly influenced by the growing conditions.
