average and v/e have received many unsolicited testimonials
complimenting us on its excellent quality.
It produces heavy yields of large smooth, globular,
meaty, red fruits. They have a delightful flavor, and are
covered with a thick skin which hinders cracking. More-
over, the plants shade the fruits well and thus protect
them from sun-scald.

all the good qualities to make it

ally smooth; one of the best of all tomatoes for canning, and
