' M^Jk. —A 
pShenandoah.— For main crop there is no 
variety that can ecLual the Shenandoah, and 
it is particuiarlydesirable lor large growers and 
shippera, as it will stand more handling and 
rough usage than any tomato we have ever 
I grown, while its beautiful bright red color and 
I handsome shape makes it most valuable ".s a 
market sort. It is a remarkably strong grower 
and wonderfully productive, producing fruit of 
the largest size right up to the time the vines 
are killed by frost. The Shenandoah is certain 
to please everyone, the amateur as well as the 
market gardener, and we cannot too highly 
recommend it to our patrons. Fkt. 15o-, oz.,

California Peach. — They arc very beauti- 
ful and generally taken for some rare or 
unknown tropical fruit. For picking from the 
vines and eating out of hand they are liked by 
most people much better than the finest i)eache3 
or oranges. They are simply superb, and those 
who plant them once will ever after grow them 
in quantity for table use. either raw, cooked or 
preserved. The entire fruit is free from core 
or hardness around the stem found in all other 
varieties. Don't fail to try it this season*

^I^Extra Early Ruby.— This was first discov- 
ered in a field ol' Livingstone's Perfection, and 
ripens much earlier than that well known To- 
mato. The vines grow strong, stiff and very 
rapidly, producing an abundance of these splen- 
did Tomatoes at a time when they will com- 
mand a high price in the markets. The fruit is 
solid, of medium size and splendid quality. We 
know this is one of the most valuable early 
market variety ev«r introduced, and it will pay- 
all gardeners to plant it largely. Pkt. 10c.,oz.

First of Alt— The earliest tomato we have 
ever grown, surpassing Trophy, Atlantic Prize, 
Earliest of All, Early Ruby, and all extra early 
varieties offered by other firms. In addition lo 
this it is a beautiful red color, making a most 
desirable sort for early use. For market grar- 
deners who want an extra early tomato of 
fine appearance, and one that will bring a 
high price in the markets we particularly 
recommend First of AU. Pkt. lOc, 3 pkts.
