Giant Crimson Pepper 



The earliest maturing and 

 most productive very large 

 sweet pepper. The plant is 

 vigorous and upright, growing 

 two and one-half to three feet 

 high, larger than that of Chi- 

 nese Giant and more produc- 

 tive. The fruits are rich deep 

 crimson when mature. The 

 flesh is very mild and excep- 

 tionally thick. We consider 

 Giant Crimson the most desir- 

 able very large pepper yet 

 introduced, {See colored plate

Coreless Tomato 



A comparatively new bright 

 scarlet main crop or late va- 

 riety which is extremely pro- 

 ductive and blight resistant. 

 The fruits are of largest size, 

 uniformly globe shaped, very 

 solid, almost entirely free from 

 green core and with little or 

 no depression at stem end. We 

 consider this a very desirable 

 canning and shipping sort.

Early Detroit Tomato 



Critical growers of tomatoes for shipment are offered in Earl;; 



Coreless 



Detroit, introduced by us three years ago, a 

 most exceptional combination of desirable 

 qualities. It is not only the most productive 

 of the early purplish pink sorts but in uni- 

 formity and size of fruit, freedom from 

 cracking and from tendency to blight it has 

 been found to meet the most exacting re- 

 quirements. The illustration on this page 

 shows how favorably it compares with 

 Stone in size, uniformity and smoothness of 

 fruit. Vine vigorous and very productive. 

 Fruits very smooth, uniform in size, nearly 

 globe shaped, firm and of excellent quality. 

 Early Detroit is the largest and best of the 

 early purplish pink tomatoes yet intro- 

 duced. {See colored plate opposite afid

Stone Tomato 



Our trials the past season have confirmed 

 us in the belief that our stock of this stand- 

 ard tomato is unequaled in smoothness, 

 color and number and weight of market- 

 able fruits. We have made careful com- 

 parisons during recent years with many 

 sorts of similar shape and color that were 

 claimed to be superior in earliness and 

 productiveness but they have all proven 

 less desirable than our stocks. We have 

 also found Stone to be under adverse con- 

 ditions the most reliable cropper yet intro- 

 duced. It is certainh^ tmsurpassed for can- 

 ning. We believe discriminating buyers 

 will find our strain to be the very b'est ob- 

 tainable. {See cut on this page and further
