MAULE'S MAGNIFICENT TOMATO. 



Vegetable Seeds — 95 



Maule's Magnificent 

 Tomato 



(Bright red.) Never before has any vege- 

 table been tried so thoroughly in all sec- 

 tions of the country as Maule's Magnifi- 

 cent. In different soils and various climatic 

 coiiditions it came out with flying colors. 

 The plants root well from the very begin- 

 ning of their growth. As the result of this 

 strong growth of root there is a large and 

 vigorous vine, giving larger crops than 

 other tomatoes of equal acreage. The fruit 

 is large, solid and smooth, easily prepared 

 for market on account of its perfection. 

 It is a good shipper, does not crack or rot; 

 unsurpassed for canning. If you want an 

 abimdant crop of solid, smooth, bright red, 

 meaty tomatoes that will be large and good 

 as long as vines can be protected from frosts, 

 send for Maule's Magnificent." 



Thousands upon thousands of people see- 

 ing this main crop tomato growing in the 

 gardens of their neighbors were struck by 

 its remarkable beauty, making the remark 

 they must surely have some of this seed 

 next year, so that Maule's Magnificent at 

 once sprung into popular favor. 



Packet, 10 cents; half ounce, 25 cents; ounce, 

 40 cents; quarter pound, $1.10; pound, $4.00.

 sort. Much used for canning purposes. The foliage is heavy and an im- 

 mense cropper. Pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 35 cts.; % lb., 75 cts.; lb., $2.50.

Selected Acme 



(Pink purple.) A celebrated pink purple tomato; round, smooth, 

 productive. Of delicious flavor and ■n-ith firm, solid flesh. It comes into 

 bearing early, producing clusters of medium to large fine tomatoes. 

 Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 'iO cts.; \^ ponud, 60 cts.; pouud, $2.25. 



664 



The Matchless 



(Cardinal Red.) This great tomato is well named. The illustration 

 gives a fair idea of its shape and smoothness. The color is a rich, cardi- 

 nal red. The skin is so tough that it is a splendid keeper and shipper, 

 and is less liable to crack in wet weather than any other large tomato. 

 Unsurpassed for market or for table. ' The plant is a strong gi'ower, and 

 is very productive. The fruit is free from core, and the seed spaces are 

 small. The leaves are of a rich, dark green color, and very luxuriant, 

 indicating 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 highly recommend it to all 

 my friends, and especially to those who are running market gardens 

 or for canning. Pkt., 10 cts.; ol., 30 cts.; % lb., 85 cts.; lb., $3.00.
