Bonny Best Tomato Tomatoes
My own growing line bred stock of Bonny Best tomato and my records show that this is a great tomato for the market grower, the home grower, the Canner. My yield from one acre net was 30 tons, 839 pounds. Expert tomato growers who inspected them after fifteen tons per acre had been picked stated the vines still held what they would consider a full crop. The fruits are medium large-just the right size-shape full from stem to blossom. Color deep red, quality unsurpassed. No cat faces or hard cores. Very early and one I recommend to the most critical grower. If you want early fine tomatoes to bring top prices, get some of this seed; start your hot bed early so you will be a Bonny Best enthusiast when the crop matures. Don't fail to plant some of this seed, and if you grow for market, where earliness and best quality count, plant a large part of your acreage to it. Price-(10c per pkt.) (30c per ¼ oz.) ($1.00 per oz.) ($3.75 per ¼ lb.) ($7.00 per ½ lb.) ($13.50 per lb. And up), prepaid.
