VEGETABLE 
EARLY FREEDOM TOMATO. 
Sparks' Earliana 
TOMATO. 
Sparks’ Earliana is without a doubt the 
earliest good tomato grown. It was raised 
and developed in a section of South Jersey, 
from which probably more early tomatoes 
are shipped than any other place in the 
United States. Earliana is not only extremely 
early but of particularly fine quality, which is 
very rare in an early tomato. The flesh is 
remarkably solid, and it has few seeds. It 
has the habit peculiar to many early sorts of 
setting the bulk of its fruits close to the 
center of the plant, so that they are exposed 
to the sun and thus ripen early. These qual¬ 
ities make it particularly useful for a first crop 
variety, and where more than one sort is 
grown, Earliana should head the list. The 
fruits which develop later are not equal in 
quality to those of the later and larger sorts.

THE BEST EARLY TOMATO IN EXISTENCE. 
Not only early, but a prodigious and continuous bearer. 
solidity and flavor surpassingly fine. 
Quality, 
Early Freedom is unqualifiedly superior to any other early tomato grown Its 
value lies not only in the actual time of ripening its first fruit, but that such 
enormous quantities of fruit can be gathered while all other so-called “Earlies” 
are ripening only a few. The fruits are of good size, brilliant scarlet in color 
perfectly round, smooth and remarkably handsome. The flesh is solid of perfect 
flavor and absolutely free from any acidity. The fruits are borne in laree 
clusters, in phenomenal abundance and continuously, from the middle of T u l v 
(m this latitude) until killed by frost. It has a very tough skin and flesh is 
very firm, making it the best shipper and keeper of the early varieties. (,See cut )

1 want to thunk you for the satisfaction that I have experienced in growing your superb Freedom 
Tomato . 7 hey are superior in every respect to any other kind that / have ever tried. We had rive tmna 
toes from the Freedom on June loth. weighing from 1 U pounds and over. The Freedom was ripe when 
those of other varieties were hardly in bloom. They are the finest tomatoes in this part of the country ”

Henderson's Crimson Cushion TOMATO. 
The Earliest Large Tomato —-A prolific and continuous fruiter — Almost 
seedless and very solid. 
This crimson-scarlet brother of Ponderosa is the latest addition to our new race 
of almost seedless tomatoes. The fruits, while not quite as large as those of 
Ponderosa, yet average big—big enough for any body and for any purpose 
measuring 4 to 5 inches in diameter and 3 to 4 inches in depth, in fact the fruits 
are so thick that they appear almost round. This symmetry of form, added 
to the other merits — brilliant crimson-scarlet color, solidity, neatness and high 
quality ot flesh, freedom from acidity and watery pulp, scarcity of seeds — has 
won for Henderson’s Crimson Cushion many friends. It is fairly early for so 
large a tomato, enormously prolific and bears continuously until killed by frost 
{See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 60c. oz., $2.00 % lb. 
W e and, our friends pronounce your Crimson Cushion the most excellent tomato we ever ate • it 
has spoiled us for any other. F . D% THAYER , Dudley , Mass. 
“Crimson Cushion will yield a crop where all other tomatoes fail; for beauty , size and flavor 
they cannot be excelled. J.W. DALE , Du Boise . Pa.
