EXTREMELY EARLY PROLIFIC 

 BONNY BEST TOMATO 



In held test the Bonny Best proved to be the earliest of all early tomatoes. 

 The fruit was extremely abundant and large, much superior to many of the 

 much advertised sorts; in fact, much of the fruit was as large as the largest 

 BOTtfl Of commercial Tomatoes. It has an abundance Of vine, protecting the 

 fruit from scalding and the blossoms being knocked off by heavy rains and 

 winds. This is fast becoming the leading Extremely Early Tomato. Its 

 smoothness, uniformity of size, brilliant red color, evenness of ripening, 

 compact growth and abundance of fruit will make it a money-maker for 

 Card' ner, Packer and Home Gardener. Why experiment with other sorts 

 when this one is to be had? Price: Packets, 5 and 10c; 1 ounce, 20c; Vi 

 pound. 60c; 1 pound. $2.00.

IMMTIYhl.t THE EARLIEST AMI HARDIEST OF ALL GREEN 

 PODDED BEANS. It can be planted at least ten days earlier than any other 

 green bean. It will stand considerable more cold and wet weather than any other 

 beans. This excellent variety is a great 'improvement over the popular standard 

 sort. Early Red Valentine, being One-third Longer Than That Variety. Pods Per- 

 fectly Round and Straight. It has the additional advantage of being suitable for 

 both early and late planting, being extremely hardy. It will withstand both early 

 and late frosts which kill other varieties. A most desirable sort for the market 

 gardeners, owing to its enormous yielding qualities, large and handsome appearance. 

 It resists the various bean diseases. Price: Pkt., 10c; pint, 20c;' quart, 35c; 

 peck, $2.50; bushel, $1' 



BOLGIANON OOLDEN HEART LETTUCE. There has always been a de- 

 mand for a Big Boston Lettuce without the brown tinge. This Lettuce is black 

 seeded Big Boston with less Brown tinge. It will stand longer without going to 

 seed and has a fine large heart, light color, and is crisp and tender. Price: 

 packet, 5 and 10c; 1 ounce, 15c; 2 ounces, 25c; ' i lb., 40c; 1 lb., $1.50. 



WAYAHEAD LETTU4 E. This new lettuce was called first to our attention 

 by some of the leading market gardeners. It shows a remarkable combination of 

 earliness. firm heading character, handsome appearance and fine quality. For cold 

 frames it has no superior, and in the open ground in spring, summer and early 

 fall months it has proven to be not only the earliest, but one of the surest head- 

 ing varieties. Packet, 5 and 10c; 1 ounce, 20c; % lb., 60c; 1 lb., $2.00. 



BOLGIANON NEW WONDER LETTUCE. It has solid round heads and will 

 bear transportation better than almost any other variety. For early spring 

 planting in the open ground or under glass it is unequalled. The plants grow 6 to 

 7 inches in diameter ; the outer leaves are so closely folded the plant is prac • 

 tically all head. It is hardy as well as very early, and a quick grower. Leaves 

 are a light green, and slightly crumpled, like Savoy Spinach; inner leaves a bright 

 yellow. In flavor it is particularly rich, buttery and tender. Bolgiano's Wonder 

 has certainly been highly appreciated wherever grown or tried, and is sure to 

 become popular, both in home and market gardens. Price: packets, 5 and 10c; 

 ounce. 20c; 2 ounces. 30c: V* lb., 50c; lb., $1.50.
