NEW EARLY TOMATO, '^ FREEDOM.'^ 



Is the best Extra Early tomato in existence, as early as the 

 earliest tomato grown, and unqualifiedly superior in other respects. 

 Its value lies not only in the actual time of ripening its first 

 fruit, but that such enormous quantities of fruit can be gathered 

 while all other so-called " Earliest " are ripening only a few. The 

 fi'uits are of good size, perfectly round, and remarkably handsome, 

 smooth as glass, and of brilliant scarlet. The flesh is remarkably 

 solid, having but few seeds. The flavor is perfect, absolutely free 

 from any acidity. The fruits are borne in large clusters, in 

 phenomenal abundance and continuously, from the middle of July 

 (in this latitude) until killed by frost. We highly recommend it, 

 not only for its extreme and bountiful earliness, but as a good, all- 

 season variety. Fine fruits can be picked from it in the fall, long 

 after other varieties have ceased bearing. (See cut.) Price, 10c.

This very distinct and most promising new variety, of the color of Beauty 

 and Acme, is the latest addition by Livingston to the Tomato family. It 

 is thick, heavy and solid, and most handsome. It is unsurpassed in 

 quality, and in the production of fine, large fruits. While perfectly 

 adapted to main crop planting, yet it matures so quickly that it will take 

 first i-ank for early market. The form is perfect, uniform, large and 

 attractive. Flesh is very firm. It is a robust grower, with short joints, 

 setting its fruit clusters closer together than most varieties, and is the 

 fore a heavy cropper. The fruits are very deep from stem to blossom e 1 

 many of them being almost globe-shaped. It ripens evenly, does not en 1 

 about the stem, and the flavor is most desirable. (See cut.) Price, 10c

'^ HONOR BRIGHT" TOMATO. 



Very productive, the fruit is of uniform size and form, being nea 1 

 round or apple-shaped, and about three inches in diameter. Althougl t 

 blooms with the early tomatoes, it does not mature its fruits until qu t 

 late, ripening very slowly from the centre outwards (just the reverse of 

 other tomatoes) ; at first it turns ivory-white, gradually changing to yellow, 

 then pink, deepening into beautiful red when fully ripe. The fruits are 

 wonderful keepers, being very solid and firm, enduring handling and 

 shipping that would ruin other tomatoes. Fruit can be picked when 

 passing out of the white stage, and be shipped or stored away for days and 

 be in fine ripe condition when wanted for use. Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz.,
