(LIVINGSTON'S) 



A Large Globe-Shape 

 Early Tomato 

 A very popular va- 

 riety with market gar- 

 deners, especially in 

 the South. The short- 

 jointed vines are 

 vigorous and very pro- 

 ductive. The tomatoes mature a little earlier than most main crop 

 varieties. The fruits are borne in clusters, and are nearly round or 

 globe-shaped. They are smooth and a glossy purplish rose in color; 

 flesh firm, few seeds, and of very fine flavor and acid free. A good 

 keeper and shipper. It makes a very attractive package. (See engrav- 

 ing.) Price, oz. 60c, % lb. $1.60, lb. $5.00. 



IVIara'lorjp Extensive tests conducted in sections where wilt 

 XVldrglUuc* an( j Tns i diseases were prevalent have proven that 

 it is immune therefrom. 



Marglobe is almost perfectly round; of large size, and bright red in 

 color. It is one of the most productive tomatoes in cultivation, it 

 being rare that a flower fails to set. It is a vigorous grower and is as 

 well adapted for cultivation under glass as for the open ground. 



Marglobe is early and continues bearing over a long period of time- 

 It possesses a delicious flavor, and this combined with its attractive 

 appearance, its immunity to wilt and rust, as well as to the tenacious- 

 ness of its skin, which minimizes the cracking of the fruit, are certain 

 to insure a promising future for it.

The Pritchard or Scarlet Topper. Active 



experiments conducted by the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture in their 

 quest for a perfect disease, wilt and rust resisting tomato, several 

 fine varieties have been developed; but, it is believed that this, 

 their newest introduction, is the most perfect sort yet produced. 



Its general appearance is that of a scarlet-fruited variety of the 

 popular Marglobe, but it begins to bear much earlier. At our 

 Trial Grounds, it was as early as Bonny Best. For its disease 

 resistant qualities, it supersedes all others. The vines are very 

 sturdy in growth — shorter than the Marglobe — and they produce 

 the heaviest crops of any of its class. 



Unlike other early varieties, Scarlet Topper continues to bear 

 long after the other sorts have ceased. The fruits are large from 3 

 to Zy<i inches in diameter, are perfectly globe shaped and extremely 

 attractive. This new variety is undoubtedly destined to occupy 

 a leading place among the high quality tomatoes for the market 

 garden. (See engraving.) Price, oz. $75c. }£ lb. $2.00, lb. $6.00. 



TOMATOES 



Market Growers- 

 Quality Stocks 



Ponderosa, Henderson's. 



Not used for ship- 

 ping, but of enor- 

 mous size and remarkable solidity. For local trade where 

 its superb flavor is known, it is invaluable. Price, oz. 75c. > 

 % lb. $2.50, lb. $8.00. 



Ci. on p The plant is very robust, and ripens a remark" 

 ably large crop. The fruits are slightly flat- 

 tened but very solid, and of particularly good color. It 

 stands shipping better than most sorts, and is the best of 

 all scarlet varieties for main crop and general use. Price, 

 oz. 45c, 34 lb. $1.40, lb. $4.50. 



"Winsall" Henderson's Prize Tomato 



Winsall is not a shipping tomato, but for Local Trade or 

 Roadside Markets, it has no superior. 



It is the finest quality tomato in the world. It is ex- 

 tremely solid and meaty, practically seedless and it pos- 

 sesses the most delicious flavor of any tomato in existence. 

 It also contains less acid than any other variety, and can 

 therefore be eaten by people who cannot eat ordinary sorts. 



Some of our Market Gardener customers have taken up 

 the culture of this variety for their high class local trade 

 and sell the fruit at 10 cents or more per fruit. These 

 growers have adopted the Columbus System of tomato 

 culture, which simply consists in pruning the plants to one 

 leader and staking them. Price, oz. $1.50, J 4 lb. $4.00, 

 lb. $12.00. 



Please Note — Winsall Tomato is very vigorous in growth and pro- 

 duces superabundant foliage. It is therefore often necessary to prune 

 away some of it to admit light and air to the flowers and assist pol- 

 lenization.
