EARLI-BELLE—ALL THE NAME IMPLIES 
Buist’s Scarlet Giant Tomato 
BUIST’S SCARLET GIANT TOMATO 
This new introduction is a scarlet sport of 
our famous Monarch, which it resembles in 
all respects except the color—a rich scarlet 
without any purple tint or shading. It is of 
immense size. A single tomato weighing two 
pounds is not unusual. The vines are vigor' 
ous and not subject to blight or rust. It has 
very few seeds, no core, and ripens evenly to 
the stem. For best results, train a single stem 
on stakes or trellisses. Pkt., 15c; M oz., 35c; 
Vz oz., 60c; oz., $1.00; M lb., $3.50. 
$ RUTGERS 
This second early variety is well adapted 
for canning, market, or home garden. Fruits 
blood red, medium to large, smooth, uniform 
in shape, free from cracks and disease. Flesh* 
firm and ripening begins at the center so that 
when the fruits are red on the outside they 
are well colored throughout. This is an iim 
portant factor when growing tomatoes for 
canning and juice manufacture. Flavor very 
pleasing with a low acidity content. Pkt., 10c; 
Vz oz., 20c; oz., 35c; M lb., $1.15; lb., $4.00.
