ATLANTIC PRIZE. 



THE VERY EARLIEST OF ALt TOMATOES. 



This toinato ripens nhead of all otliers. It is the result of many years' careful selection by one of the most f-uccessfuE 

 tomato growers of Alhmtic County, New Jersey. The vines grow strong, stiff and very rapidly, setting the crown fruit 

 wlien quite young, the buds appearing before the plant is four inches iiigh. The fruit is borne in immense cluster.'!. Encli 

 vine produces from sixty to eighty large, perfect tomatoes, very solid and of the finest quality, being unusually free from 

 core and seeds. Another great fetiture, besides extreme earline.ss, and one which must jirove of great advantage to.il! 

 tomato growers and market gardeners, is that when first fruiting it ripens more evenly anrl abundantly than any other tomato- 

 grown. It is by far the most valuable first early market variety ever introduced. Pkt., lOc; oz., 30c.; J4 lb., 80c.; lb., $3.00. 



THE BRANDYWINE TOMATO. 



Nothing we have ever introduced has excited so much comment as this magnificent tomato. It has brought us in. 

 hundreds of unsolicited testimonials from customers who all agree in pronouncing it one of the most productive, continuous- 

 in bearing, and attractive in both color and form. 



It is unquestionably one of the very best second early and late tomatoes, owing to its large size, beautiful bright red skin,, 

 uniformly smooth and liandsome appearance, and great productiveness. 



WiUi'two such handsome varieties as the Atlantic Prize for early and the Brandy wine fur second early and late,. 

 no private or market g.irdener could fail to have a bountiful supply of most delicious tomatoes the entire season. Pkt., 10c. ;. 

 oz., .30c.; 1^ lb., 80c.; lb., S3.00. 



EARLY MARKET CHAMPION TOMATO. 



This valuable tomato originated with a prominent Philadelphia market gardener, who has for many years made Ihe- 

 seleetion and improvement of the tomato a specialty. He has always had extremely fine, large tomatoes in the market very 

 early and realizing handsome prices for his crop. His aim has always been to combine earliness with large size and 

 j>erfect, smootk shape. Tliere is no other purple tomato cultivated that will ripen so early or produce more bushels of 

 large, handsome fruit to the acre than the Market Champion. Pkt., lOc; oz., 85c.; ^-^ lb., 70e.; lb., $2.75. 



THE CUMBERLAND RED TOMATO. 



This magnificent tomato has met with very large Fale in all sections of the country. Many pronounce it the best tomato- 

 they have ever grown. It originated a few years ago in Cumberland County New Jersey, where afew truckers havegrown it 

 and made very large profits, from the fact that it hasalways^ommanded veryhigh prices in Philadelphiaraarkets; and it was 

 only after great persuasion and at high cost that we were able to obtain from the originator afew ounces of his selected 

 stock seed to grow from. The vines grow vigorously and produce abundantly until killed by frost. Foliage a very dark 

 green. The skin is remarkably tough, and the tomatoes keep a long time after being pulled, making them an excellent 

 market and shipping variety. Pkt., 10c. ; oz , 30c.; J/^ lb., 80c.; lb., S3.00.
