SPARKS' EARLIANA TOMATO, AS GROWN BY MR. S. E. FHI8BIE. 



Mr. S. E. Frisbie, " Gardenside," Conn., who sends us the above photographs of Sparks' Earliana 

 Tomato, says of it, March 4, 1904: "Tomatoes are one of my special crops, and I have the name of 

 Bending the finest fruits as well as the earliest into the Bridgeport market, and the Sparks' Earliana is 

 my main tomato. I set thousands of plants. For three years I have picked ripe fruit before June 

 has gone by, and have been on the market with my whole crop before any drop from a glut. I am 

 keeping posted on other varieties, having grown Nolte, Chalk's Jewel, etc., but the Earliana gets there 

 first and is the best tomato." We have a small quantity of seed saved for us by Mr. Frisbie from the 

 above selected stock, at $1.00 per oz., while it lasts. Price of Johnson & Stokes' seed, pkt., 10c; £ oz.,
