Earliness and an Extended Bearing Season-make it the Perfect 

 Home Garden Variety. This new variety produces large 

 fruits just a few days later than the earliest varieties, but 

 it continues to bear good crops well into the season. 



The fruits are a rich scarlet-red in color; meaty, and of 

 excellent flavor and quality. The vine growth is luxuriant 

 although open for moderate shading. It is tolerant to early 

 blight and has shown wide adaptability to soil and climate. 

 We have found that it produces surprisingly large crops 

 when unfavorable conditions have checked most other 

 varieties.

A Home Garden Tomato of Superior Excellence 



Customers who grew it say that they have never grown a tomato 

 that was more beautiful, more meaty, or better flavored. It is not 

 uncommon to see the vines carrying fruits weighing two pounds each. 



The color is brilliant scarlet and the skin is so smooth as to give the 

 fruits a polished appearance. The solidity and weight of this variety 

 are derived not from a thick-fleshed outer wall and tough skin, but, like 

 our famous Ponderosa, the seed cavities have given way to a solid 

 mass of meaty, succulent flesh, so that the fruit is practically seedless. 

 The plant is vigorous and bears large crops of beautiful fruit. Sea- 

 son 85 days.

CRYSTAL WHITE 



A STARTLING 

 Novelty 



Pure Alabaster White as Tempting and as Delicious as it is Beautiful 



92 



With the development of this, the latest and most startling 

 vegetable novelty that has been introduced in many years, we 

 have completed the object of our aim and labors, which date back 

 to the introduction of Henderson's Golden Ponderosa in 1914. 



Crystal White possesses all of the merits and qualifications that 

 have made Golden Ponderosa increasingly popular since its intro- 

 duction. The character of its growth is quite similar in many 

 respects to that variety. It is just as vigorous, and develops into 

 a large sized plant with a plentiful supply of foliage, like a typical 

 Ponderosa. The fruit is produced as freely and it is by far the 

 most attractive that has ever been originated. The color is a 

 lovely alabaster white that appeals to all who see it. There is no 

 trace of red in this variety. 



The firmness of Crystal White is due to its meatiness, which 

 quality also characterizes its desirability for slicing. Its flavor 



78 



is all that can be desired ; - a mild full richness which appeals to s 

 Furthermore, it is possible with this variety, for people who a 

 allergic to tomato poisoning, to enjoy Tomatoes to their hear 

 desire, without any ill effects. This is due to the fact that 

 contains less acid than any other variety. 



Crystal White possesses eye appeal to a degree that will insu 

 its popularity wherever grown. When served sliced either alo 

 or in combination with a red variety such as Richmeat, its tem[. 

 ing appearance will instantly arouse fagged or jaded appetiti 

 The present vogue of white table arrangements finds a wortl 

 and valuable ally in this new fruit. A salad composed of fros 

 white slices of Crystal White with a background of other whi 

 salads, will prove to be a masterpiece of culinary temptatio 

 Season 85 days from plant setting. Supply of seed limited.
