Tomatoes this year let it be the Boun¬ 
tiful. The intorducer claims that it 
came from a seedling found growing 
in a field of another variety of Toma¬ 
toes. It was quickly discovered to be 
an upright, strong, early blooming, 
quick bearing, and extremely vigorous 
sort If planted in any good garden 
soil will grow very fast and upright 
^ . ** be seen by the engraving. It 
oegms to fruit early and continues throughout the season, producing a great abundance 
af handsome fruit This fruit if picked quite green will ripen up evenly very quick, 
which makes it an excellent sort for shipping. The flesh is very solid, fine grained 
ind ia sure to give splendid satisfaction wherever grown. It is almost impossible to 
fully describe the Bountiful Tomato, and it should be grown to be appreciated By all 
means give it a trial. Pkt, 5c., 3 pkts., 12c., 7 pkts.. 24c.
