BIG MONEY MAKERS 67 
Culture.— Sow in hotbed in early spring, or the seed may 
De sown in shallow boxes and placed in a window, when 
one does not wish to have the trouble of making a hotbed, 
transplant to the open ground when all danger of frost is 
past, setting the plants 2 to 4 feet apart each way. Fruit 
may be had several weeks earlier by sowing seed quite early 
and transplanting to small pots. Tomatoes that have not 
ripened at the end of the season may be taken from the 
vines and placed m empty coldframes, or wrapped in tissue 
paper and carefully packed in flat boxes, where a large 
portion of them will ripen from time to time — frequently 
until Christmas. ' 
CONDON'S FIRST OF ALL 
The largest, smoothest and finest flavored extra 
early tomato in cultivation. This great tomato is well 
named. The illustration gives a fair idea oi its size 
and smoothness. The color is a rich, cardinal red. The 
skin is so tough that it is a splendid keeper and shi- - 
per, and is less liable to crack in wet weather than any 
other tomato. Unsurpassed for market or table. The 
plant is a strong grower, and is very productive. The 
fruit is free from core, and the seed spaces are small, 
fhe leaves are of a rich, dark green color, and very 
luxuriant, indicating great ability to produce fruit of 
the largest size throughout the entire season. It 
stands at the front as the earliest bright red Tomato.
