NEW TOMATO, LIVINGSTON'S GLOBE. 



This new 1905 variety originates with the Living- 

 stons, of Tomato fame. 



In shape it is notably distinct from all others, being a beautiful globe, 

 with quite a good percentage of elongated (stem to blossom) fruits. See 

 illustration which gives a fairly good idea of its shape. This peculiarity 

 permits of a greater number of slices to be taken than is possible with 

 flat varieties. It is among thefirsttoripen; fruit of large size, and a good 

 marketable size is maintained throughout the season; always smooth, 

 firm-fleshed, and has very few seeds, especially in the early fruits; ripens 

 evenly through and through; a fine glossy rose in color, tinged with pur- 

 ple; very productive, the plant is always

311. Livingston's "Honor Bright."— ( me of the most striking characteristics of this ^^^M ^Wmwk/' ' /** pKt. 20c; 3 pKts. 50c, 

 new Tomato is the singular change of color the fruit undergoes during ""■ *^l t _ 7 pKts,I$1.00 

 its development. One characteristic is its long keeping quality which 

 makes it especially valuable for shipping long distances. If 

 picked in the early stage of ripening, it can be shipped and 

 will keep from one to four weeks, if stored in a cool place. 

 The fruit is of good size, very solid, the vines vigorous and 

 very productive and the Tomatoes of excellent quality.

 and perfectly smooth. The flesh is solid and of excellent 

 flavor. It ripens evenly and quickly. Much used for can- 

 ning purposes. The foliage is heavy. The Paragon is some- 

 times described as being as smooth as an apple. It is a fav- 

 orite market variety in certain sections. A fine, early variety 

 and a heavy bearer. PKts. 5c and 10c, Oz. 15c, 2 Ozs. 25c,

CULTURE OF TOMATOES. 



For early fruit, sow seed in March or April in hot-beds or 



in pots in a sunny exposure in the house. When plants are 



3 or 4 inches high they should be set out 4 or 5 inches apart 

 in another hot-bed or cold-frame, or removed into small pots, 

 allowing a single plant to a pot. Expose to the air to hard- 

 en, and about the middle of May set them in open ground 



4 or 5 feet each way. Water freely at time of transplanting.
