TOMATOES 



Quality Stocks for Market Gardeners 



Bonny Best 



Produces Large Sized Tomatoes Bright Scarlet in Color 



Bonny Best is decidedly the "best" in its class for the Market 

 Gardener whose trade requires really fine fruits. It is almost as early 

 as Earliana; and is a larger tomato, and a heavier cropper. The fruits 

 ' are deep scarlet in color, very smooth, perfectly round, solid and meaty. 

 Bonny Best is also an excellent variety for the canner, as it yields 

 from 12 to 15 tons to the acre. (See engraving.) Price, oz. 50c, 



M lb. S1.50, lb. $5.00. 



Bonny Best Henderson's Super Strain 



This super-strain of Bonny Best is a result of intensive selection 

 from the old strain, its fruits are larger and more deep and we recom- 

 mend it for greenhouse forcing or intensive field cultivation. 



Price, y 2 oz. $2.25, oz. $4.00, \i lb. $15.00. 



Break-O-Day 



Break-O-Day was produced by Dr. Pritchard of the U. S. Dept. of 

 Agriculture and is the result of a cross between Marglobe and an un- 

 named seedling. It has retained the same size, shape and color of 

 Marglobe, but is more solid, and it ripens about ten days earlier. 



Price, oz. 70c, \i lb. $2.00, lb. $6.00. 



Cooper's Special 



Henderson's Private Stock 



Cooper's Special is a very finely bred second early tomato similar 

 to Livingston's Globe, but not nearly so rank in vine. 



The fruits — which are quite large — are bright rose in color, with a 

 slight tinge of purple; and they ripen very evenly. The meat is firm 

 and solid, and the seed cavities will be found quite small. 



Cooper's Special is also an extra good shipper and is grown very 

 extensively by southern truckers for the northern markets. The stock 

 we offer is especially good, having been carefully selected, for a number 

 of years. (See engraving.) Price, oz. 60c, }4 lb. $1.75, lb. $6.00.
