Descriptive catalog of vegetables for processing . descriptivecatal1955asso Year: 1955 BREEDERS AND GROWERS 41 GREATER BALTIMORE 85 Vine large, vigorous, somewhat open. Fruits flat, medium large, deep scarlet, fairly solid and firm. HOMESTEAD 84 Developed at the Southeastern Vegetable Breeding Laboratory, , primarily as a green wrap type, but of some interest for canning. We have selected this somewhat variable variety for greater uniformity. Vine determinate, large and heavy, giving good fruit protection and setting well. Fruits medium large, slightly flatter than Rutgers, of acceptable color and quality. Resistant to Fusarium wilt. INDARK 88 A new Fusarium wilt resistant Rutgers type developed at the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station. Vine indeterminate, vigorous, of erect growth habit. The deep globe fruits are medium large, relatively free from cracking, of good color and solidity. JEFFERSON 82 Developed at our Midwest breeding station. Vine medium to heavy, vigor- ous and prolific, resistant to Fusarium wilt. Fruits globe-shaped, a little smaller than Rutgers in size, dark red in color both inside and outside, thick-walled with small core and relatively free from cracking. KOKOMO 84 A wilt-resistant variety in the Rutgers class, comparable with Jefferson, introduced by the Indiana Agricultural Experiment Station in 1953. Vine indeterminate, somewhat smaller than Rutgers, immune to Fusarium wilt. Fruits globular, a little smaller than Rutgers, slightly larger than Jefferson; of medium to deep red color, thick walled, smooth, with small blossom end scar. Midseason pickings exceed Rutgers but total yield is similar. KOPIAH 83 Developed at the Mississippi Agricultural Experiment Station and named for Copiah County. Vine stocky, indeterminate, well foliaged; resistant to Fusarium wilt. Fruits medium to full globe, ripening evenly dark red to stem end, better in this regard than Rut
