 glossy crimson with a tingue of purple.

 fruits, retaining its large size late in the 

 season. It ripens with Acme and Per- 

 fection, and is entirely free from ribbed 

 and elongated fruit. It is very firm 

 fleshed, has a tough skin and but few 

 seeds. It seldom rots or cracks after a

Truckers Favorite.— The best of 

 all main crop, purple colored tomatoes. 

 It orginated in Burlington County, N. J. 



It is one of the largest tomatoes grown, 

 and is most regular in shape and size. 

 Color purplish-red, very solid, firm flesh, a 

 good keeper, and not subject to rot or 

 crack on the vines. It is an excellent ship- 

 per, and sold in Philadelphia markets at 

 better price than any other variety offered 

 at the same time. Ripens evenly to the 

 stem, is a strong, healthy grower, not sub- 

 ject to rust or blight, is an enormous crop- 

 per, and produces until the vines are killed 

 by frost, holding its size exceedingly well 

 until the last picking. The quality is of 

 the very best, and for cooking and slicing 

 purposes it cannot be excelled. It is in 

 every way a most desirably variety for 

 market gardeners, and hence the name, 

 " Trucker's Favorite." Pkt. 5c. Oz.
