THE NEW STONE— BUCKBEE'S IMPROVED STRAIN 

 The Tomato for a Main Crop— Choicest seed. I call tnis 

 the king of the Livingstone kinds, which are the best 

 type of larse, smooth, solid, •'beefy" Tomatoes. If asked 

 to select oue main crop market sort we advise this. Color 

 fine scarlet, stem set high, core small and shallow, so that, 

 little is lost when it is taken out of the fruit before slicing. 

 Ifiudoibt. buy the New Stone for market or home use.
