TOMATOES 
Continued 
Isbell’s Colossal 
The Largest of all Tomatoes 
The Colossal was correctly named, as it is unquestion¬ 
ably the largest Tomato in existence. In quality it is like¬ 
wise supreme. The very thick, meaty flesh, few seeds, and 
mild flavor combine to give the Colossal a quality on a 
par with its immense size. Equally suitable for slicing, 
in salads, and for canning. The mild flavor appeals to 
many people who cannot eat sharper flavored sorts con¬ 
taining more acid. Colossal not only produces giant fruits, 
but it also is a very big yielding variety. The Tomatoes 
are of a deep purplish red color. If you have never tried 
Isbell’s Colossal Tomato, there is a fine surprise in store 
for you. We know you will be delighted with it as thou¬ 
sands who have grown it have been. It is especially suitable 
for the home garden. We introduced and named it the 
Colossal and our seed is pure. Pkt., 15c; y z oz., 40c; oz., 
75c; 14 lb., $2.75; lb., $10.00, prepaid.

The Largest Yellow Tomato 
The best way to describe the Golden Colossal is to say 
that it is just like our famous Colossal except in color, 
which is a beautiful golden yellow. Try a packet of these to¬ 
gether with the red. Slices of the two on the table make a very 
attractive dish. Pkt., 15c; y 2 oz., 40c; oz., 75c, prepaid.

New Oxheart 
See Illustration Inside Front Cover

which attain unusual size and are of the finest quality. Very 
solid tomatoes with decidedly few seeds ; of mild flavor, less 
acid than other sorts. Complete description on page 3. Pkt., 
15c; y. oz., 45c; oz., 75c; 14 lb., $2.75, prepaid.

Resembles Oxheart very closely in size, shape and habit of 
growth but the color is bright yellow. Makes a handsome 
contrast when sliced with Oxheart. The flavor is very mild 
and pleasing. Supply of seed is limited. Pkt., 15c; y> oz., 75c 
prepaid. 
Small Fruited Tomatoes 
Largely used for making fancy pickles, preserves, canning,

White Beauty 
We have at last been able to propagate a white Tomato of 
good quality. The New White Beauty contains very little acid 
and so will make Tomatoes agreeable to thousands 
of people who have heretofore avoided them on 
account of the acidity. White Beauty is ivory-white 
in color, showing no trace of red and the flesh is 
almost paper white. It grows about as large as 
Stone. Pkt., 15c; 3 pkts., 40c. 
This fine variety as grown by us is quite smooth, 
of immense size, very meaty, solid and luscious. 
For family gardens it is deserving of universal use 
and many market gardeners plant Ponderosa every 
year for their special trade. Unsurpassed in fine 
quality for slicing. The vines are of strong growth 
and produce large clusters of beautiful Tomatoes ; 
they are extremely prolific and bear continuously 
until frost. The extra large, deep purple fruits are 
very fleshy with small seed cells; of extra sweet 
flavor. Ready for the table in 120. days. Ripens 
with the main crop and canning varieties. Pkt., 
10c; V 2 bz., 30c; oz., 50c‘; *4 lb., $1.50; lb., $5.25,
