Carrot 
Nantes XXX. This, a de luxe 
strain of the well-known Nantes 
Carrot, has been developed to meet 
the most exacting needs for uniform¬ 
ity of form, size, and color. The 
roots, of cylindrical form, about 6 T 2 
to 7 inches long and 1 to 1^2 inches 
in diameter, are quite blunt-ended 
with a small tap-root. They are 
brighter orange in color, cleaner, of 
finer texture and, most important of 
all, they mature earlier than the 
regular strain. Nantes XXX is an 
ideal bunching Carrot for muck-soil 
culture. T41b. 65 cts.; lb. $2; 10 lbs. 
$18.50, transportation prepaid. 
Tomato # 
Rutgers. This remarkable new strain has a unique feature of inestimable value for the Tomato 
grower. The bright scarlet, globe-shaped, smooth fruits ripen from the inside out instead of, as with 
other varieties, from the outside in. The type is an improved Marglobe. The plants show unusual 
vigor and produce a very high yield of nice, firm, solid, well-fleshed Tomatoes which are excellent for 
shipping. Another special feature of Rutgers is that it excels all other Tomato varieties in the fine 
llavor of its juice. The flesh is bright red and quite thick. If you wish to try this fine new Rutgers 
Tomato, we suggest that you order early as our seed supply this year is quite limited and we anticipate 
a large demand. V4 oz. 30 cts.; oz. 90 cts.; Vilb. $2.75; lb. $10, postpaid. 
Cauliflower 
“The Forbes.” This ace of Cauli¬ 
flower, of the Snowball type, is very early 
and matures very evenly. The deep, solid 
fine-grained, pure white heads are very 
well protected by the leaves, as shown 
below. The plants are quite compact, with 
broad leaves and without any bare leaf- 
stem. “The Forbes” produces more No. 1 
heads than any other strain. Vioz. $1 ; oz. 
$3; y 4 lb. $10.50; lb. $38; 10 lbs. $330.
