Alacrity
Variété citée en 1920 dans le catalogue "Geo. Keith & Sons" à Toronto
avec le texte suivant : This is undoubtedly the very best and
earliest tomato. It originated at the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa and is
the result of a number of years very careful selection.
The fruit is round and deep, with a good rich, red colour, flesh firm and of
excellent quality, with very few seeds. It is a good bearer and ripens at least
two weeks ahead of Earliana. The seed we offer was grown by a large grower in
Essex County who says : I kept accurate account in 1917 when I found that the
Alacrity tomato returned to me three times as many dollars per acre as Earliana
grown under exactly the same conditions.
