BUCKBBE'S ALL-RELIABLE TOMATO SEED 



BUCKBEE'S EARLIEST MARKET. 



Buckbee's Earliest Market — A variety bearing fruit which in size, shape, color, solidity and quality compares favorably with the noted later 

 kinds, and by repeated trials at Rockford Seed Farms and elsewhere, has demonstrated that it ripens op a larger portion of its crop the earliest of 

 any variety. Earliest Good Tomato. Gardeners and Tomato fanciers will readily see the advantage obtained over their competitors by growing 

 Buckbee'a Earliest Market. We do not hesitate to pronounce it the largest, smoothest, best flavored and highest colored extra early Tomato. Vine medium 

 size, leaved just enough to protect the fruit, which is produced in abundant clusters reasonably low down on the stem and ripening all together. Thosa 

 who desire a variety of this description, either for family or market purposes, will find this variety what they want. Pkt. Inc.; H oz. 20c; oz, '35c; 

 S oz. 60c; X lb. $1.00; K lb. $1.75; lb. §3.00. 



BUCKBEE'S SPOT CASH— The Latest Success in Tomatoes. 



A variety introduced by us, and we believe the best table Tomato, at least as far aa quality is concerned. Vine medium size, but rigorous, healthy and 

 productive. Although not represented as a first early sort, many of our customers 'eport thatthey have obtained ripe fmit from this as early as from eny 

 sort, and it proves to be one of the best varieties known for forcing. Frnit medium sized, oval, very Bmooth and of exceedingly bright, crimson scarlet 

 color; very free from cracks, and rotting but little. The flesh is of a crimson scarlet color, quite distinct. It is also one of the best in flavor, and entirely 

 free from the hard spots found in eo many others. The Spot Cash is not only one of the best for home use and for market, but one of the beet canning 

 Tomatoes. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; 3 oz. 35c; X lb. 60c; Klb. Sl.lO; lb. S2.00. 



HONOR BRIGHT.— This is a most distinct variety. The toma- 

 toes at first are white, turning to light yellow, and then to brilliant scar- 

 let as they become fully ripened. They are very solid, aud it is an excel- 

 lent bearing variety. It is already quite largely plantel in the Sonth, 

 where the fruits are gathered before turning to scarlet, and are so 

 extremely solid that they are shipped to the northern markets in barrels, 

 ripening well upon arrival. Fruits of medium' size, smooth and regular 

 in form. Per Pkt. 4c; oz. 20c; 2 oz. 35c; 1-4 lb. 60c; 1-2 lb. 

 $1.10; lb. $2.00. 



MATCHLESS— This is the best laree-fruited standard 

 bright-red tomato. Our original strain has oeen critically selected 

 and developed by ns for more than ten years. We are careful each sea- 

 son to save seed only from fine, large fruits which are solidly meaty. 

 This selection has vastly improved the fruit, but greatly reduced the 

 yield of seed, and onr superb strain should not be compared with seed of 

 this variety commonly offered at a low price. Besides being of such large 

 size and handsome appearance, it is of very superior flavor. Select seed 

 is verv scarce this year— send to Buckbee *for the best. Per Pkt. 4c; 

 oz. 20c; 2 oz. 35c; 1-4 lb. 60c; 1-2 lb. $1.10; lb. $2.00. 



Buckbee' s Self-Supporting 



TOMATOES. 



PARTICULARLY characterized by their upright 

 growth, and eclipsing all others in productive- 

 ness. The uniform price of each of the follow- 

 ing varieties is: 

 Pkt. 10c: 1-2 oz. 25c; oz. 40c; 2 oz. 75c.; 

 1-4 lb. $1.25. 



BUCKBEE'S COUNTY PAIR. 



This magnificent sort of my own introduction 

 certainly is in the lead of ail other Tomatoes. Par- 

 ticularly distinguished by their upright growth, 

 never requiring any support, but always standing up 

 like a tree. Inform and color the fruit resembles 

 the Acme; it is always symmetrical and attractive in 

 appearance; the skin tough and the flesh solid; ripens 

 well. 



BUCKBEE'S STATE FAIR. 



Another self-supporting novelty. Foliage resem- 

 bles Buckbeo's County Fair and might be taken for 

 this variety if it were not for the color of its beauti- 

 ful, glossy red fruit, preferred in many localities to 

 the purple or rose colored varieties. Its size, solidity, 

 productiveness, smoothness, flavor of its fruit, etc., 

 is unexcelled either for market, family or shipping. 



BUCKBEE'S WORLD'S PAIR 



Still another wonderful 6ort, in every way similar 

 to the above varieties, differing only in the color of 

 the fruit, which is a beautiful golden yellow shade, 

 the richest Bhade by far yet attained by any variety. 

 The superior flavor of the yellow varieties is bring- 

 ing them into favor as table fruit, and those who 

 think of the Yellow Tomato as the rough fruit of the 

 old yellow sort will be surprised at this smooth, 

 beautiful sort, it being the best of the yellow varie- 

 ties, and of a fine and distinct flavor.
