TOMATO 



Get. Liebesapfel. 

 Xew Dwarf Stone. {See cut.) 



This new Tomato was originated by 

 "Livingston," the tomato specialist. In 

 habit of vine, it resembles Dwarf Cham- 

 pion, but is of stronger growth and 

 stands more erect. The Tomatoes re- 

 semble the original Stone in color, shape 

 and what is remarkable for an erect sort, 

 they are practically the same size. Ten 

 Tomatoes picked from one vine at the 

 same time, weighed five pounds and 

 three ounces. Five tomatoes selected by 

 eye for an average size, weighed two 

 pounds and nine ounces. This was un- 

 der field cultivation on farm land, with 

 no fertilizer. It is fully double the size 

 of Dwarf Champion and equally as early. 

 Shape is perfect, with good skin, very 

 solid flesh, ripens evenly and is of excel- 

 lent flavor. J^ oz. , 25 cts., oz., 40 cts.; 

 X lb., gl.30; lb. $5.00. 



The Marvel. This variety is noted 

 for its marvelous productiveness and fine 

 quality. The Tomatoes are of medium 

 size and in shape almost round like an 

 apple. They grow in clusters all over 

 the vine. The color when ripe is a light 

 red, very attractive, and the Tomatoes 



are extremely solid, few seeds and of 



sweet flavor. For a second early Tomato, 

 of medium size, this variety will surely please all who plant 

 it. Oz., 30 cts.; X lb., 80 cts.; lb., ^3.00. 

 Magnus. This distinct Tomato is of the same color as 

 the Acme, being a rosy pink. It is medium early, perfect 

 form, grows large and attractive. The plants make small 

 joints, setting the clusters of fruit much closer than most sorts, 

 thus making it a heavy cropper. Oz., 30 cts.; }( lb., 80 cts.; 

 lb., $3.00. 

 Honor Bright. The foliage is yellowish-green and the 

 fruits grow in clusters of from 3 to 5 large Tomatoes. The 

 color, when fully ripe, is a rich, bright red, but during growth 

 it makes several interesting changes in color. Oz. , 20 cts. ; 

 % lb., 65 cts.; lb., $2 25. 

 Crimson Cushion. Large size ; sometimes weigh one 

 pound. Nearly round, and of very good quality, being free 

 from acid taste. Color bright scarlet. Oz. , 45 cts.; '4 lb., 

 ;gl.25 ; lb., $4.50. 

 Ponderosa. This is one of the largest varieties ; although 

 somewhat irregular in shape, it is good, particularly for stew- 

 ing. Oz., 45 cts.; X lt>., $1.25 ; lb., $4.50.
