SPIN ACH— Cont inued. 



BLOOMSDALE SAVOY-LEAVED SPINACH 



A very popular variety to sow for the late fall cutting. It is quick 

 growing and a heavy cropper, producing large, fleshy, dark green leaves as 

 deeply crumpled as a Savoy Cabbage. It is largely grown in the South 

 for winter and early spring crops. If sown in the spring it must be cut 

 as soon as ready, as it quickly runs to seed. (See engraving.) Price, oz. 

 10c, M lb- IBC'i lD - 26c - ( 10 lbs - and upwards 20c. lb.) 



KING OF DENMARK SPINACH 



This is a variety of comparatively recent introduction, and seems des- 

 tined to supplant some older varieties for spring sowing; because it is 

 extremely slow to go to seed. 



It is very dwarf, and makes a wonderfully quick growth, setting an 

 abundance of dark green tender leaves, distinctively crumpled. It is 

 ready for cutting as soon as other varieties and we think it a great addition 

 to the list of varieties for the trucker. Price, oz. 10c, H lb. 20c, lb. 60c 

 (10 lbs. and upwards 40c lb.) 



Henderson's Selected Varieties of Tomato 



FOR MARKET 

 GARDENERS 



LIVINGSTONS 

 GLOBE TOMATO 



COOPER'S SPECIAL 



Henderson's 

 Private Stock 



See also colored plate on back cover 



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 very bright rose 

 in color, with a slight tinge of purple; and they ripen very 

 evenly. The meat is very firm and solid, and the seed 

 cavities will be found quite small without the usual green 

 core. Cooper's Special will be a favorite with all market 

 growers because the vines continue to produce fruits of a 

 marketable size all through the growing season. 



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. 75c, M lb. S2.53, lb. S3. 00. 



LIVINGSTON'S 

 GLOBE 



A Large Globe-Shaped 

 Early Tomato 



A very popular va- 

 riety with market gar- 

 deners, especially in 

 the South. The short- 

 jointed vines are vigor- 

 ous and very produc- 

 tive. The tomatoes mature a little earlier than most main crop'varieties . 

 The fruits are borne in clusters, and are nearly round or globe- 

 shaped. They are smooth and a glossy purplish rose in color; flesh 

 firm, few seeds, and of mild flavor. A good keeper and shipper. 

 (See engraving.) Price, oz. 45c, 14 lb. $1.40, lb. $5.00. 



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. Price, oz. 45c, 

 H lb. $1.40, lb. $5.00.
