#4801 The self-pruning Tomato grown by me this year, fulfilled all that was expected of it and came true to description. The Atlee Burpee Co. is to be complimented for the introducing of a Tomato that's more or less a necessity, especially to the amateur or small backyard gardener who grows for his own consumption, and who is uncertain what to do when advised to the benefits of pruning or pinching Its a good producer, colouring pleasing to the eyes, shape is such that makes it attractive to the housewife, therefore should command the best prices, making it profitable for the market gardener to grow. By how sparsely leaved the fruit ripens more simultaneously than other varieties. The flavour and solidity of the best. In general the satisfaction obtained by me this year, was such that it will always find a place in my garden, and it was with pride that I was able to convey to my friends especially those who are conservative to old tried varieties the fruitfulness of trying out new introductions when placed on the market, by a reputable [[insert]] firm [[/insert] such as the Atlee Burpee Co.
