RADISH, Early Scarlet Turnip, White Tipped. 

 — A beautiful variety of the same size and shape as the 

 Scarlet Turnip, but of a deeper scarlet color with white 

 tip. It IS early, of e.xcellent flavor, and as it is so de- 

 sirable for table use, from its ornamental appearance, it 

 has already become very popular as a market variety.

coMA^cx-T E33CX Hybrid. A ncvv' ar.d cxccl'ierit 



variety, a cross between the Hubbard and American 

 Turban, having the color and shape of the Turban with 

 dryness and hard shell of the Hubbard. It is one of the 

 richest flavored, finest grained and sweetest of the 

 squash family, as well as one of the best keepers. The 

 flesh is very thick, rich colored and solid, with only a 

 small cavity for seeds. It is very productive, and as it 

 is the earliest of the winter varieties, can be planted 

 later in the season than other winter sort.s.

Livingston s Perfection

SQUASH, Perfect Gem.— An entirely new variety, 

 combining the qualities of the best summer and winter 

 squashes. Remarkably vigorous grower, sending out its 

 vines very thickly for many feet, and covered with a 

 luxuriance of fruit. These squashes are about five 

 inches in diameter, are noted for fineness of grriin, fla- 

 vor and sweetness, and possess excellent keeping quali- 

 ties. A most desirable variety for every garden.

TOMATO, Essex Early Hybrid.— This new To- 

 mato is early, solid, large, rich flavored, and grows /^r- 

 /ectly smooth. It is of a bright pink color, and the 

 most desirable shape. It ripens very evenly, and as the 

 flesh is very hard and solid, it makes one of the very 

 best kinds for marketing and shipping. It is wonder- 

 fully productive and a vigorous grower, producing more 

 fruit lit for market than almost any other sort.

TOMATO, Hun- 

 dred Day. — As an 



early market variety, 

 this certainly excels. 

 It is of medium size, 

 rather flat, and of a 

 distinct, bright scarlet 

 color. From its size, 

 shape and color, we 

 think it would be se- 

 lected on the market 

 in preference to larger 

 and smoother sorts. 

 We were particularly 

 pleased with it last 

 season on our own 

 grounds.

 in shape nearly round ; it is smooth, solid, and of good 

 size. Very prolific, maturing early, and continuing to 

 bear fruit very late in the season. Ripens evenly, and 

 is a most excellent variety for shipping long distances.
