THE BOUNTIFUL - If 
you only grow one variety of 
tomatoes this year let it be the 
Bountiful. The introducer 
claims that it came from a 
seedling and an extremely vig¬ 
orous sort. 
It begins to fruit early and 
continues throughout the season, producing a great abundance of 
handsome fruit. 
The flesh is very solid and fine grained. It is almost impossible to 
fully describe the Bountiful Tomato, and it should be grown to be ap¬ 
preciated. Pkt, 5c, 3 pkts. 12c.

Peach Tomato 
One of the prettiest in cultivation. Fruit is of uniform size and resembles a 
peach in shape, size and color. Excellent for eating from the hand, the flesh being 
of a rich and most delicious flavor, while the skin is very thin and can be peeled off 
like that of a peach. The whole fruit is tender and free from core, even around 
the stem. 
This tomato is so handsome that no illustration can do it justice, and we can 
recommehd it.

Sumatra Fig Tomato 
This is quite an interesting novelty. Plants grow strong and yield large quan* 
tities of fruit of a yellow color. When dried they look and taste like figs: 
To prepare them to get fig flavor pick out perfect specimens, and dry them 
whole in a heated oven similar to drying apples. When thoroughly dry they car 
be stewed or prepared as dry figs, making excellent preserves, pies and layer cake 
In flavor they rival the best Smyrna fig. Do not fail to try them this year.
