leading houses. The only First Class certificate was 
given to Carters Sunrise, and the following note at¬ 
tached to the report: “Tomatoes have reached such per¬ 
fection that it is now very difficult to raise a variety 
superior to those already in commerce. In this trial only 
one stood out as being of exceptional value, viz., Sunrise. 
It is some time since such a high honor has been 
granted to a Tomato.” See color plate. Pkt. 25c., oz.

is remarkably good, being slightly more acid than red 
varieties. See color plate. Pkt. 25c., oz. $1.00, lb. $10.00.

nounced uniformity. Pkt. 25c., oz. $2.00.

TURNIPS 
For early Turnips, sow as soon as the ground 
opens in spring. Nos. 13842 to 13930 should be 
sown from any time in July to first of August, 
but the other kinds, for winter use, may be sown 
from the middle of July to the end of August. 
Turnips are generally sown broadcast, but much 
larger crops are obtained (particularly of the 
Rutabagas) by cultivating in drills 18 inches 
apart, and thinning to 6 inches in the drill. Sow 
in shallow drills, 1 pound to the acre; 1 ounce to 
150 feet of drill; broadcast, 2 to 3 pounds to 
the acre. 
13510. Carters Little Marvel. A New Early White Turnip. 
A cross between Early White Milan and Jersey Lily. 
This is a highly re-selected stock, the tendency to flatness 
having been entirely eradicated; the tops are small and 
compact. It is undoubtedly the quickest white globe- 
shaped Tijirnip in cultivation. Flesh crisp and solid, and, 
as aptly described by one of our customers, is a little 
marvel. Very distinct in both habit and foliage, and a 
splendid table Turnip. Pkt. 5c., oz. 25c., lb. $1.50. 
13600. Carters White Milan. This is an exceptionally fine 
selected stock, strongly recommended for early garden 
work. It is as quick as a Radish, clean in growth, and 
of very fine flavor. This fine Turnip was included in our 
Gold Medal Collections, and is without doubt the finest 
white flat turnip grown. Pkt. 6c., oz. 25c., lb. $1.50. 
13602. Carters Golden Rose. One of the hardiest and best 
winter Turnips. Flesh of a rich golden-yellow color, 
with a single taproot; flavor most delicate and melting.

table Conference of the R.H.S. Pkt. 5c., oz. 25c., lb. $1.50. 
13604. Carters Purple-top Strapleaf. A variety with plain 
straplike leaves and flesh of fine texture; color of top of

$1.60.

white garden Turnip grown. In shape as round as an
