Special Novelties for 1915 



Superb Extra Early Beet. Has taken the lead among the early turnip-shape 

 beet entirely by superb merit of everything pertaining to a beet to make it a 

 recognized leader. It is very early, 8 to 10 days ahead of other early sorts now 

 offered. The shape is uniformly perfect, being entirely free from fibrous side 

 roots, which are so objectionable. In fact, it is the smoothest beet within our 

 knowledge. The flesh is a rich dark blood red, tender, crisp and deliriously 

 sweet; besides having a very small top, is an ideal for bunching. Will produce 

 a crop inside of seven weeks from sowing. Is excellent for forcing as well as 

 for main crop. Pkt., 5 and 10c; 1 ounce, 15c; X lb., 40c; 1 lb., $1.25. 



Bolgiano's Grand Tomato. Few introductions of late years 

 have taken as well as this GRAND NEW TOMATO. It has 

 become a standard Main Crop Tomato. The large, smooth, 

 pink fruit, makes it the finest Tomato that has come to the 

 Washington market the past two seasons. This is no old variety 

 with a new name, but a Grand New Pink Late Tomato. It has 

 surpassed the old varieties in that it does not show the tendency 

 to blight, as many of the older sorts do. We are sure that 

 wherever it has once been used it will be used again. Already 

 we have taken orders for a quantity of this seed, indicating that 

 the demand is going to be large. Pkt., 10c; 1 ounce, 20c; 

 X lb., 65c; 1 lb., $2.00. 



I be Greater Baltimore Tomato. This Tomato has 

 reached the highest peak of success. In a three years' test it 

 produced 16}£ tons to the acre against 13 ]A, tons of the Stone on 

 the average. While we recommend the Stone Tomato, we say 

 and believe the Greater Baltimore Tomato is better in every way. 

 Large, smooth, bright red color — very productive. Fine for 

 Table, Canning and Market. It ripens well up to the stem end, 

 and does not crack. It is extremely heavy; a measured bushel 

 often weighing 65 lb. to 70 lb. Price: Pkt., 5 and 10c; 1 ounce, 

 30c; 2 ounces, 50c; \i lb. 80c; 1 lb. $3.00. 



John Baer Tomato. This Tomato was introduced last year; 

 in some localities it gave great satisfaction, proving all that was 

 claimed for it. Being the earliest, finest tomato yet introduced. 

 Our man who had five acres in this tomato says that he prefers it 

 to all other earlv sorts. There are a number who have made the same statement. Price: Pkt., 25c; 1 ounce, $2.00; 

 14 lb., $7.00: 1 "lb., $25.00. 



Bolgiano's Early Fortune VI bite Spine Cucumber. Expert gardeners all over this country have proven by actual 

 test that this Cucumber (Early Fortune) is the earliest and best, rich dark green White Stnne Cucumber on Earth. Best 

 for Table, for Market, for Shipping. It is the greatest producer of all varieties, and at all stages it is dark rich green color 

 and retains its color until it is too hard for domestic use. 

 r thing, out of thousands of this cucumber you will have- 

 to hunt hard to find an off -shape or off-color. Price: Pkt., 5 

 and 10c; X lb., 30c, 1 lb., $1.00.
