wouldn't grow Ponderosa if it
meant they grew no tomatoes.
Controversy has raged for years
about its mild flavor.
Earllana is an example of a
tomato with deep oblate shape.
This variety is grown not only
for its early fruiting but also
for medium-size, uniform fruits
and heavy productivity.
The globe-form tomatoes
dominate the field. Here belting
such popular varieties as Prit
chard and Rutgers, Jubilee,
Jphn Baer and Bonny Best.
Marglobe was named partly
for its shape ? the deep globe
shown at the bottom of the
left column in the illustration.
The chief tomato cropq of both
gardeners and commercial
growers are of globe shape.
In the second column of the
illustration are the forms of
the small-fruited tomatoes. The
top outline represents the
shape of the red or yellow
plum tomatoes, the second
drawing the pear tomatoes and
the third the red Summer
Cherry tomato. All three of
these are known as "cocktail"
tomatoes for their frequent
use as accompaniments to
drinks.
But fruits of Tiny Tim or
Patio, both developed for grow
ing in flower pots, are similar
in shape to those of Summer
Cherry and Roma, a tomato
used for making paste, also is
pear-shaped. However, the
prime paste varieties, Early
Paste and San Mariano, are
formed with the straight sides
like the bottom outline.

levy an assessment of 20

Royster also told the group
of two bills In the N. C. Gen
eral Assembly, which would
establish a state tskV on to
bacco, and Informed them that
the Supreme Court had re
fused to hear the action
against the Fuquay-Varlna
Tobacco Board of Trade in
attempts to knock down their
distribution of sales time.
The refusal to hear the ac
tion, which has been upheld
In lower courts, backs the
board of trade and upholds a
previous decision Involving
the Danville, Va. Board of
Trade. The two systems of
distribution are similar.
The group also heard a re
port on surplus tobacco stocks
from L. T. We, ks, manager
of the Flue-Cured Tobacco
