297. DUKE OF YORK TOMATOES. — The genuine old type — blue stem Dukes have given the utmost satisfaction to the Florida Tomato Growers, 

 it has brought many a dollar rolling their way but it has been difficult for these growers to get absolutely the straight type of Dukes when they 

 ordered it, this situation however is a thing of the past for we are. now prepared to supply all our friends and customers with the purest, truest, 

 cleanest type of genuine old type — blue stem Duke of York they have ever seen or grown. Our supply for the 1 ast two years has not been enough 

 to go around, this season we increased our acreage considerably, we are therefore prepared to fill many more orders than ever before but even now 

 we fear the demand for this excellent strain will be more than we can supply, so order early. We honestly believe we will soon get the entire 

 Florida trade on Duke of York Tomato Seed and we are going to get it because our Duke of York Tomato Seed is the Genuine Old-type Blue Stem 

 Strain kept absolutely Pure and True. Send to us for your Duke of York Tomato Seed and you run no chances, we will either send you the Finest 

 Stock of Dukes you have ever had or return to you your money. Texas Tomato Growers should give this Tomato a thorough trial, it has proved 

 such a money crop for Florida, it might prove equally profitable in Texas. Duke of York Tomato is one of the grandest Tomatoes recently intro- 

 duced, color, rich, glossy scarlet, splendid cropper, round in shape, flesh very firm, large size, fine flavor. It ripens its fruit uniformly together, 

 whilst in profusion of clusters, averaging 8 and 10 large evenly formed clusters each, makes it conspicuously handsome. Ripens evenly to the 

 stem, is strong, healthy grower, not subject to rust or blight, is an enormous cropper and produces until the vines are killed by frost, holding its 

 size well until the last picking. Quality the very best, solid and meaty. PKts. 5c and iOc. Oz. 25c. 1/4 Lb. 90c. 1/2 Lb. $1.75. Lb. $3.50. 







NEW GLOBE TOMATO. 



264. In shape it is distinct from all others, being a beautiful globe, with 

 quite a good percentage of elongated (stem to blossom) fruits. It is 

 among the first to ripen. Fruit of large size, and good marketable size 

 is maintained throughout the season ; always smooth, firm-fleshed, and 

 has very few seeds. Ripens evenly through and through ; a fine glossy 

 rose in color, tinged with purple ; very productive, the plant is always 

 loaded with fruit, as it has joints at frequent intervals and each joint 

 produces large clusters of from 3 to 7 fruits. Especially adapted for slic- 

 ing or eating from the hand as the flavor is very delicate and agreeable, M

ANOTHER GREAT MONEY-MAKER. 



268. THE JUNE PINK TOMATO.-In habit of growth is similar to the 

 Earhana. The plant is neat and compact, branching freely, with fruit 

 hanging in clusters of 6 to 10 fruits both in the crown and at the forks 

 of the branches. Under exactly the same conditions as given Sparks' 

 Earlianaand Chalk's Jewel, the June PiuK yielded as much fruit as 

 either, and the vines after the crop had been harvested were greener 

 and brighter, and sbowed no tendency to blight. It ripens fully as 

 early as the Sparks' Earliana and quite 10 days to 2 weeks ahead of 

 Chalks' Early Jewel. The fruit is of medium size, uniform, smooth, 

 and attractively shaped, without cracks or any green core. The fruit 

 will average 2& to 3 in. in diameter, and from 2 to 2% in. in depth. 

 The skin is reasonably tough so that it is excellent for shipping 

 purposes. In color, it is a bright pleasing pink, and in markets where 

 a pink tomato is desired will bring 25 per cent, more in price than any 

 red variety. It has the further quality, making it especially desirable 

 for private use, continuing to bear and ripen fruit up until frost. PKts.
