900 White Icicle Radish 



A Radish in very general use for all purposes. It is a long, clear white Radish, growing 5 to 6 

 inches in length before becoming pithy. It will mature about five days later than the Scarlet Globe 

 and ten days earlier than the White Box. It will hold several days before becoming pithy. The 

 stock offered is reasonably uniform. The shape tapers regularly from near the shoulder to the tip, 

 holding its thickness for nearly its full length, the thickest part being 1 inch from the top. Pkt. 

 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., V 4 lb. 35 cts., lb. $1.25. 



905 Long Scarlet 



A long red Radish in large demand in certain markets. It is quite similar to Long Scarlet White- 

 Tip, although, when taken as a whole it is not considered quite up to the latter variety in attractive- 

 ness or quality. It is a crisp, tender Radish, however, which will grow quickly. Its season is not 

 long for it must be pulled comparatively early after maturity. The color is a deep red and when 

 prepared for the table it is altogether very attractive. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., V^lh. 35 cts., 

 lb. $1.25. 



910 Chartier (Shepherd) 



A summer variety that is somewhat similar to the Long Scarlet White-Tip. As compared to 

 that variety it is lighter in color, being a dull pink for about two-thirds of its length, shading to a 

 clear white at the tip. It will, however, remain longer before turning pithy than the latter variety 

 and for this reason is more desirable for some purposes. For spring planting we do not consider it 

 so desirable as the Long Scarlet White-Tip. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., y 4 lb. 35 cts., lb. $1.25. 



914 White Strasburg 



A large summer Radish desirable for late planting when other early and smaller varieties will 

 not keep in condition. It will mature in about forty days and remain in condition for a compara- 

 tively long time. Its maximum size before becoming pithy is at least 5 inches in length and 1 y% 

 inches in diameter. The color is white, with a slightly green-ivory tinge. One-fifth of the root usu- 

 ally grows above ground. Its shape is cylindrical; its quality is very fine and not surpassed by any 

 Radish of this class. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., V 4 lb. 35 cts., lb. $1.25.

1005 Special-Stock Bonny Best 



FOR FORCING 



As has been our custom in the past, we have made a special selection from our Bonny Best crop 

 for seed for forcing purposes. This stock is the result of individual-hill selection by our Tomato 

 expert. The requirements for this selection, before acceptance, are size, tonnage, uniformity of 

 ripening, resistance to disease, and color. Our Special-Stock Bonny Best for Forcing is recommended 

 to every Tomato-grower in the United States. We not only recommend it ourselves but know that 

 it is being recommended by hundreds of greenhouse men who have tried it and who have had suc- 

 cess with it. Pkt. 25 cts., oz. $1, V 4 lb. $4, lb. $15. 



iooo Stokes Bonny Best Tomato 



Ten successive and successful years for Stokes Bonny Best Tomato and the demand still on 

 the increase! Such is the record for this most magnificent and profitable variety, which was named 

 and introduced by the late Walter P. Stokes ten years ago. A ten-ton-per-acre crop was grown on 

 Windermoor Farm this past season, which has been considered a splendid record in view of the 

 fact that all of the New Jersey Tomato crop was very light indeed. 



Stokes Bonny Best is for all practical purposes as early as the Earliana, setting from twenty to 

 fifty nearly globe-shaped fruits for every hill. Its color is an intense glowing scarlet, ripening to 

 the stem without crack or black spot. As a general-season Tomato, we know of no other which can 

 equal Bonny Best either for home or commercial use. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 35 cts., VUb. $1.25, lb. $5. 



1022 Stone (Red Rock) 



Perhaps the standard main-crop Tomato for all purposes. It is quite similar to Greater Balti- 

 more but differs in some respects. The fruits are solid, nearly round but slightly flattened, have a 

 very small seed-cavity and are exceptionally uniform in size. Stone is very prolific and has proved 

 a tremendous money-maker the country over. As a slicing variety it is unsurpassed. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 35 cts., V 4 lb. $1.25, lb. $5.
