TOMATOES SCARLET MIDSEASON AND LATE 

 SORTS 



T KINGSTON'S FAVORITE, Paragon, and Perfection 

 "^^ are all standard bright red sorts of uniform smooth- 

 ness, good solidity, and of special value for slicing and 

 canning. They mature in the order mentioned and are 

 as thoroughbred as nearly half a century of careful selec- 

 tion can make any vegetable. 



Livingston s Stone is the standard main crop sort through- 

 out the country for both market and canning. Prob- 

 ably as many Stone tomatoes are grown each year as all 

 the rest of sorts put together. Matchless is a strain of 

 Stone selected for exceptional solidity. Both Stone 

 and Matchless mature the first fruits in from 115 to 120 

 days from date seeds are sown. Livingston's Careless 

 must be considered the latest and most up-to-date variety 

 in this class. It is of the most improved globe shape (see 

 illustration), a wonder of solidity and of highest quality 

 flavor, though about a week later than Stone.
