Maulers Enormous Tomato 



Enormous 



Tomato 



(Deep red.) Maule's 

 Enormous Tomato, bred 

 by Mr. Miesse, was first 

 introduced to the public 

 in my catalogue for 1899, 

 having been sent out the 

 previous year in packets 

 for trial under the name 

 "Eight to the Yard." 

 Maule's Enormous, how- 

 ever, was not bred merely 

 for large size. The name 

 Mas selected from the fact 

 that it seemed to apply 

 better to this wonderful 

 tomato than to any other. 

 In comparative trials 

 with other sorts, under 

 ordinary conditions, 

 Maule's Enormous has 

 made a record for both 

 quality and quantity, 

 while the beauty of the 

 fruit makesit an easy and 

 quick seller in all mar- 

 kets. The fruit is re- 

 markably solid and finn. 

 Enormous is now uni- 

 versally recognized as a 

 standard main crop red 

 tomato, of great size and 

 productive ability, and of 

 the highest amateur and 

 commercial quality. Ev- 

 erybody is pleased with it. 

 Its enormous size and 

 good quality make it the 

 leading large red tomato. 



Packet, 10 cents; half ounce, 25 cents; ounce, 40 cents; quarter pound, $1.10; pound, $4.00, postpaid. 



663' 



Chalk^s Early Jewel 



(Bright Scarlet.) Within a week to ten days as early as the 

 famous Sparks' Earliana, it is even a heavier cropper, with 

 Tomatoes of larger size and sweeter flavor, while its more 

 robust growth makes it a sure cropper. Of compact growth. 

 Large, handsome fruits, very solid, deep through. Ripening 

 right up to the stem without any cracks or green core. The 

 foliage is rather open, admitting the sunlight to the center of 

 each plant, so that all the fruits are thoroughly ripened. 

 Flesh thick, solid, with comparatively few seeds and of sweet 

 flavor; skin thin, but strong enough to make it a good shipper. 

 Packet, 10 cts.; ounce, 30 cts.; i pound, 85 cts.; pound, $3.00.

Spark's Earliana 



(Scarlet red. ) Very popular with many growers of tomatoes 

 for early market. There is no question but that Earliana is 

 a very early variety, and one fully deserving the remarkable 

 newspaper notoriety it has had for the past few j'ears. As 

 far as I am personally concerned I am satisfied Maule's 

 Earliest of All is still the earliest of all tomatoes. But at the 

 same time I am willing to admit that Spark's Earliana is 

 also an excellent variety, and that it has given Maule's Earl- 

 iest of All a harder tussle for supremacy than any early vari- 

 ety. Of large size, scarlet red color and great productiveness. 

 I have secured a suijply of seed direct from headquarters. 



Packet, 10 cts.; ounce. 30 cts.; H pound, 85 cts.: pound, §3.00.
