SPECIAL NOVELTIES FOR 1909 



KING OF THE EARLY ROUND GREEN BEANS 



It can be planted at least ten days earlier than any other green bean. It will stand 

 considerable more cold and wet weather than other bean's. This excellent variety is a great 

 imrrovement over the popular standard sort, Earlv Red \alentine. being ONE-THIRD 

 LONGER THAN TH.\T VARIETY. PODS PERFECTLY ROUND AND STRAIGHT. 

 It also has the additional advantage of being suitable both for early and late planting, being 

 extremely hardy. It will withstand early and late frosts which kill other varieties. A most 

 desirable sort for the market gardeners, owing to its enormous yielding qualities, large 

 and handsome appearance. Should be planted instead of either Red Valentine or Refugee, 

 beirg superior to either in appearance. It resists the various bean diseases. Crop very 

 short. Price, '3 pint, 10 cents; pint, 15 cents; quart, 25 cents; peck, $1.73; bushel, $6.00. 

 Bolgiano's Curled Beauty Kale. 



Extra Curled Long Standing Kale. In 1906, Mr. Bolgiano, on an inspection trip through 

 Long Island, ran across a new Kale of very decided merit. It was more curled than the 

 Long Standing and in every way more beautiful. It resembles the Norfolk Kale, but does 

 not need to be transplanted or planted in rows as does that variety. It is the most beautiful 

 Kale we ever saw, and are sure that anyone getting this Kale will be more than repaid; 

 very hardy. Price, 10 cents per ounce; 2 ounces, 15 cents; yi pound, 25 cents; pound, 

 7S cents. 



Positively the Earliest and Hardiest 

 of All Green Podded Beans 



June Pink Tomato 



We again call attention to this now justly 

 celebrated Tomato. Why not grow the best 

 if you grow Tomatoes? June Pink, as we 

 predicted, is now the leading pink or purplish 

 pink Tomato for the earliest crops. The 

 pleasing color with its splendid large size 

 and firmness is all that can be expected. 

 There are two strains of this grand Tomato; 

 our strain is by far the best. We get our 

 seed each season from the originator, know- 

 ing as we do that he who introduced it will 

 take best care to see that his seed is as 

 nearly perfect as possible. Packet, 10 cents; 

 I ounce, 25 cents; j4 pound, 80 cents; i 

 pound, $2.75. 

 Bolgiano's Grand Tomato. 



Few introductions of late years have Uken 

 as well as this GRAND NEW TOMATO. 

 It has become a standard Maine Crop To- 

 niato. The large smooth pink fruit makes 

 it the finest Tomato that has come to the 

 Washington market the past two seasons. 

 This is no old variety with a new name, 

 but a Grand New Pink Late Tomato. It has 

 surpassed the old varieties in that it does 

 not show the tendency to blight, as many 

 of the older sorts do. We are sure that 

 wherever it has once been used it will be 

 used again. Already we have taken orders 

 for a quantity of this seed, already indicating 

 that the demand is going to be large. Packet, 

 10 cents; i ounce, 25 cents; J4 pound, 75 

 cents; i pound, $2.30. 



"Bonny Best" Early Tomato. 



He who wants a red Tomato cannot go 

 astray with this new magnificent Tomato. 

 For nine years it has been selected for earli- 

 ness, solidity, smoothness and evenness of 

 ripening up to stem. Fifteen days earlier 

 than the Beauty Tomato, and as early as the 

 Earliana. Vigorous grower, enormously pro- 

 ductive, with a vigorous growth of foliage 

 which protects the fruit from being scaJded 

 by the direct sun. The uniformity in size 

 of all its fruit is one of its leading charac- 

 :eristics. Packet, 10 cents; yi ounce, 20 

 cents; i ounce, 33 cents; 'A pound, $1.23; 

 I pound, $5.00.
