NEW CENTURY TOMATO. Few crops have shown the wonderful progressiveness of the age as Tomatoes. Twenty- 

 five years ago the Tomato was small and unshapely in appearance. Our endeavors have been crowned with success 

 beyond our fondest dreams. The size, yield and productiveness of this Tomato is beyond question a mark that has never 

 been equalled by any Tomato. It will carry for two weeks without hurting its beauty, or cracking, and the vines are 

 free from blight. It maintains its wonderful size during the entire season. Packets, 5 and loc; ounce, 15c; % lb., 40c;

TURNIPS 



Add 8 cents per pound on Turnip Seed if sent by mail. 



CULTURE OF TURNIPS.— They do best in highly-enriched, light sandy 

 or gravelly soils. Commence sowing the earliest varieties in April in drills 

 from 12 to 15 inches apart, and thin out early to 6 or 9 inches in rows. For a 

 succession, sow at intervals of a fortnight until the last week in July, from 

 which until the end of August sowing may be made for the fall and main 

 crop. Turnips may be preserved until spring by cutting off the tops about 

 one inch from the bulb, storing in the cellar or cold shed during the winter, 

 covering the roots with dry sand. They should be harvested before severe 

 frost sets in, for, though comparatively hardy, few will survive the winters 

 of the Northern States in the open ground. 



PURPLE TOP WHITE GLOBE TURNIP. Our stock is the perfec- 

 tion of Turnips. It has small tops, but large, well-formed, handsome roots. 

 In our markets the past fall it brought double the price of other stocks, and 

 was always preferred by buyers and shippers. Packet, sc; J4 lb., loc; lb., 25c. 



YELLOW GLOBE. Yellow Globe is a wonderful cropper, and keeps far 

 into the following year. It begins to bulb at the very start, and forms large- 

 sized roots and small tops. Packet, 5c; ^ lb., loc; lb., 25c. 



GOLDEN BALL TURNIP, or ORANGE JELLY. One of the sweetest

 orange color. Packet, 5c; % lb., loc; lb., 25c.
