672 Stone The Great Ganning Tomato 
(Bright red.) This has come to be recognized as one of the best of all the stand- 
ard main crop varieties. The color is a desirable bright red. The fruit is of good 
size, perfectly smooth and of best table quality. It is a famous main crop tomato 
in many sections, both North and South, and is much used for canning. The 
plants are productive and the fruit bears shipment well. Stone is used for forcing 
purposes under glass, with very satisfactory results. Its shape, color and quality 
adapt it to the fancy market trade, also to the home garden.

(Bright Red.) At Panmure I have given this 
variety a thorough test. I find it is not to be 
classed with Earliest of All or Earliana. It ma- 
tured with us about the same time as Success, 
and while it is a smooth and productive sort, 
should be classed with the second early varieties. 
The seed I offer was carefully grown at Panmure, 
from stock obtained at a high price direct from 
the introducer. A home or early market sort.

ot Ak he Matchless 
(Cardinal Red.) This great tomato is well named. | 
The illustration gives a fair idea of its size and \ 
smoothness. The color is a rich, cardinal red. The \ 
skin is so tough that it is a splendid keeper and 
shipper, and is less liableto crack in wet weather 
than any other large tomato. Unsurpassed for 
market or for table. The plant isa strong grower, 
and isvery productive. The fruit is free from core, 
and theseed spaces are small. The leaves areofa 
rich, dark green color, and very luxuriant, indi- 
cating great vigor, and giving the plant ability to 
produce fruit of the largest size throughout the 
entire season. It stands at the front as a large, 
bright red, main crop sort, and I can safely high- 
ly recommend it to all my friends, and especially 
to those who are running market gardens.
