New Fortune Tomato 
The Best Second Early Large Red Tomato 
In January, 1894, we received from one of 
our customers a package of tomato seed, with 
the following letter : “ I send you 2i ounces of 
tlie best early tomato in cultivation, a variety 
originated by myself, and which I have never 
given a name, although I have grown it for 
several years and made thousands of dollars out 
of it. I am now 77 years of age, and my truck¬ 
ing days are about over. I am sure this tomato 
will prove a boon to market and family garden¬ 
ers alike, and knowing that from your exten¬ 
sive trade you will distribute it where it will do 
the most good, I place it in your hands.” 
After thorough trials by ourselves and 
among hundreds of our market garden custom¬ 
ers we are convinced that it is the very best 
second early Tomato yet introduced, with its 
magnificent large red fruit, borne in immense 
thickly set clusters. Pkt., 10c.; .oz., 35c.; j lb., 
$1.00 ; lb., $3.50.
