I Tincb’s Gariy Prize tomato* 
Some years ago I introduced Finch’s Tree Tomato, expending over Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars in 
bringing it before the public. Everyone admits that it has for years been the leading variety and by all odds 
the best “All Round Tomato ” ever grown. 
I now take pleasure in introducing Finch’s Early Prize, and can truly say that this Tomato is really one 
of the most valuable tomatoes ever brought to public notice. There are but one or two sorts now grown that 
can compare with it in earliness. Besides being extremely early, it has many other good qualities to recom¬ 
mend it. Plants of this variety produce fine large fruits equal to the Tree Tomato, and at the same time they 
will be ripe and can be shipped to market before the Tree Tomato has hardly commenced to turn its color. 
The fruits of this Tomato are very smooth and of superior quality, in point of productiveness one 
plant of the Prize will produce three times as many fruits as the Tree Tomato. 
Packet 10 cts.; three pkts. for 25 cts. 
Banana Tftuskmelon. 
This new variety originated with one of our best growers in South Jersey, and is pronounced by him the 
most profitable variety he has ever grown. He realized an average of twenty cents each for entire crop the 
past season, as they were eagerly sought after in Philadelphia markets on account of their oddity and of 
shape and appearance. They grow from 2 to 2% feet long, are very productive, with deep yellow flesh, of 
good quality, by many preferred to any other variety, and a great curiosity. Packet, 10 cts. 
The roots are elongated, about two inches across at 
the top, and gradually tapering, but ending abrubtly 
like a stump-rooted carrot. The thin skin and solid 
flesh are both snow white, crisp, brittle, and of the 
very best quality. It is a quick growing radish; 
can be pulled at’any stage, and even when large is 
firm and solid. It makes really good radishes in 
midsummer, that are not pithy, but crisp and re¬ 
freshing to the taste. Large pkt., 10 cts. 
GUbite Pineapple Squash. 
This new variety 
originated in 
Southern New 
Jersey, and has at¬ 
tracted much at¬ 
tention, owing to 
its peculiar shape, 
which is well de¬ 
picted in our il¬ 
lustration. What 
few have been put 
on the market here 
have brought very 
high prices. The 
skin and flesh are 
of a pure, creamy, 
white color, flesh 
very fine grained 
and of excellent 
quality and flavor, new pineapple squash. 
resembling the co- 
coanut when made into pies or custards. They can 
be used at any time during growth, and after matur¬ 
ing make an excellent autumn and winter sort. We 
have kept them for over a year in good condition. 
They are remarkably strong growers, each vine pro¬ 
ducing generally from ten to fifteen perfect fruits. 
Packet, 5 cis.
