HORTICULTURE AND LANDSCAPE GARDENING. 83 



33. Yelloiv Jefferson. {Sunset.) Eounder than the last, not inclin- 

 ing to become aogular, strongly resembling a Paragon in size 

 and shape, bright yellow, often with a red cheek. The most 

 promising of the yellow tomatoes. — Leonard (Chicago) and 

 .Tillinghast. 



34. Golden Trophy. (Telloiv Victor. Jauve grosse lisse.) Strongly 

 resembling Trophy in shape, but running a little smaller and 

 often becoming somewhat angular; color, incostant, usually 

 bright yellow, often shading into orange or red. Apt to become 

 irregular. — College from Eawson and Gregory, France. 



35. Persian. In shape and size very similar to the Conqueror; 

 whitish-yellow. Evidently the White of Burr's Vegetables of 

 America, 640. — College from Nellis. 



**Fruit red or yelloioisli-red. 



36. Little Gem. Small (one and one-half to two inches in diameter), 

 regular, spherical or slightly flattened. A phort remove from the 

 cherry tomatoes. It differs from Large Yellow apparently only 

 in color. The Little Gem from Neumann was an angular sort, 

 much like Hubbard's Curled Leaf. — Gregory. 



37. The GooWs Favorite. Somewhat larger than the last (from one 

 and one-half to two and one-half inches in diameter), firmer and 

 better, somewhat angled. Apparently a step farther removed 

 than the last from the cherry sorts.— College from Gregory, 

 Prussia. 



38. Boston ^far^cet. {Fulton Market. Extra Early Red of Ferry. 



General Grant. Alpha.) Fruit flattened, in average specimens 

 about three inches broad the longest way by an inch and a half 

 deep, somewhat cornered, bright clear red, firm. The fruit 

 inclines to become double and distorted. 

 I can detect no constant or important distinctions between the several 

 named varieties here combined with Boston Market. Fulton 

 Market is perhaps inclined to be more regular, and to bear a well 

 marked suture on one side. The General Grant, as figured and 

 described at the time of its introduction (about 1870), was much 

 more regular in shape than at present. These sorts possess little 

 merit at the present day. — College from Rawson (Boston Mar- 

 ket), Collt ge from Gregory, Prussia (Fulton Market), College 

 from Henderson, Prussia, (General Grant), College from Thor- 

 burn (Alpha). 



39. Faultless. {Farguhnr's Faultless). Probably not distinct 

 from the last, but appearing to run larger and more regular. — 

 Gregory. 



40. Ntto York Market. Fruit mostly large and regular, about 

 four inches across by two to two and one-half inches deep, 

 bright light red ; larger than Boston Market. — College from 

 Nellis. 



41. Canada Victor. Inconstant in size and shape, usually consid- 

 erably flattened ; about four inches broad by two deep, variously 

 lobed ; bright light red ; solid. A popular variety formerly, 

 but, as grown here this year and last, possessing no superior 

 merits. — College from Henderson, Prussia.
