Livingston's Globe Tomato. 



I.IVINGSTON»S GI.OBE TOIHATO. 



In shape this new Tomato is distinct from all others, being a 

 beautiful globe, with quite a goodly percentage of elongated 

 (stem to blossom) fruits. This peculiarity permits of a greater 

 number of slices being taken than is possible with flat varieties. 

 It is among the first to ripen ; fruit of large size, always smooth, 

 irm-fleshed, and has very few seeds, especially in the early 

 mils; ripens evenly, through and through; a fine glossy rose 

 n color, tinged with purple ; very productive ; the plant is 

 ilways loaded with fruit, as it has joints at frequent intervals, 

 md each joint produces large clusters of from 3 to 7 fruits. A 

 emarkably good keeper. Seed offered in packets (40 seeds) 

 )nly this season. Per packet, 20 cts. ; 3 packets, 50 cts. ; 

 ' packets, $1 .00. 



Chalk's Early Jewel Tomato. 



This is a very productive variety, ripens nearly as early as 

 "Spark's Earliana," but is much more desirable for home use 

 as the fruits are thicker through and more solid. The plants 

 are of healthy growth and the Tomatoes are borne in large 

 clusters. Color bright scarlet and quality good, being sweet 

 and free from acid taste. A very important feature is that the 

 Tomatoes are not watery, as is often the case with early varie- 

 ties. Pkt., 10 cts ; oz., 50 cts.; J lb., $1.50.

CRI^SOIS GI.OBE BEET. 



This Beet is remarkable for its smooth skin and fine shape. 

 We have been growing it on our trial grounds for several years, 

 and could not help noting its many desirable qualities. It is a 

 second early variety, does not grow large and coarse, the 

 matured Beets being medium in size and rather oblong in 

 shape. The flesh apd skin are both very dark and quality fine, 

 being sweet and tender. The tops are small and dark in color. 

 We are confident that this l^eet will please all who plant it. 

 Pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 1.5 cts. ; i lb., 35 cts.; lb., $1.00. 



Dreer's All-Heart Eettuce. 



A very superior variety of cabbage Lettuce, appropriately 

 named, on account of the beautiful hard head it makes. It is 

 adapted to both spring and summer use, as it withstands intense 

 heat. Forms large heads, leaves closely set, with extremely 

 solid heart, even before it is half grown. The color is a beauti- 

 ful yellowish-green and the flavor is excellent, being rich and 

 buttery. This is the very best Lettuce for the private garden. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 25 cts. ; i lb., 75 cts. 



Dreer's Dw^arf Perfection Parsley. 



This is a fine and most valuable Parsley. The habit is regu- 

 lar and compact, and the exquisitely fine and prettily curled 

 leaves are set so closely that the form of the plant is almost 

 semi-globular. The color is a wonderful bright pea-green, and 

 flavor surpasses all other Parsley. This variety combines the 

 qualities of a fine culinary herb with those of a beautiful deco- 

 rative plant, and is equally valuable for garnishing purposes 

 and borders. Seed very scarce. Pkt., 10 cts ; oz., 50 cts. ; 

 J lb., $1.75.

Dreer's White Delicacy Radish. 



An attractive long white variety which is a great improve- 

 ment on the White Strnsburg, being earlier, more evenly shaped 

 and smaller top; grows into full size and perfect shape during 

 the hottest weather ; for outdoor early fall sowing it is sure to 

 make a crop of uniform white Radishes, which are in quality 

 fir.-t-class, being solid, crisp and tender. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 

 cts. ; i lb., 30 cts. ; lb., $1.00. 



CRIMSON GIANT RADISH. 



A remarkable feature of this Radish is that it will grow 

 double the size of other round red forcing Radishes and still 

 remain solid, not showing the least sign of becoming hollow. 

 In shape round to oval, and very attractive, the skin being a 

 rich crimson color and flesh pure white, crisp, mild and 

 tender. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts. ; \ lb., 40 cts.; lb., $1.25. 



Dreer's Earliest Cluster Tomato. 



We believe this to be the earliest Tomato ever introduced, and 

 also the most productive extra early variety. It is entirely new 

 and the best in quality of all the extra early Tomatoes on the 

 market. The Tomatoes are of good size, measuring from 4 to 5 

 inches in diameter, and are of a bright red color, making an 

 exceedingly handsome appearance. The plants are of quick 

 and healthy growth, and fruits ripen fully a week ahead of 

 '■ Spark's Earliana," crowns ripen in S to 5 days, while the 

 " Earliana" requires at least 10 days. The Tomatoes grow in 

 large clusters; as many as eight to twelve fully ripe Tomatoes 

 can be picked at one time from some clusters. Plants grown 

 during the past summer produced on an average 72 good size 

 and perfect Tomatoes. In quality and favor this new variety is 

 fully equal to any other extra early variety on the market. We 

 are so thoroughly convinced that this is the most satisfactory 

 Tomato for early crop that we advise our customers to plant it 

 this year, knowing full well that the results will be eniirely 

 satisfactory. Pkt., 15 Cts. ; 2 pkts., 25 cts. ; oz., 60 cts. ; 

 i lb., $1.75.
