TOMATO—Continued 
PINK OR PURPLE VARIETIES 
Dwarf Champion—110 Days. This is a late 
tomato of the dwarf or upright, potato leaf type. 
June Pink—90 Days. Is a pink Earliana—see 
Earliana for description. 
Glovel or Pink Marglobe—100 Days. A new 
U. S. Dept, of Agriculture tomato created by 
crossing Pink Globe with Marvel. Medium sized, 
globular fruits on a medium sized vine. 
★GULF STATE MARKET (Louisiana Strain) 
—100 Days. This superior strain developed by 
Dr. Julian Miller of L. S. U. is better than most other 
pink varieties on the market. It has some resist¬ 
ance to wilt generally not found in pink sorts. The 
plants are robust and produce an abundance of 
medium to large ovate to globe-shaped fruits. 
★LIVINGSTON’S GLOBE (Landreths’ Strain) 
—100 Days. This variety has a large, coarse vine. 
The fruits are globular when small, becoming slightly 
flattened and very large when mature. Our strain 
of this variety is a distinct improvement on the old 
Pink Globe variety; in fact our opinion is that 
Landreths’ strain of Livingston’s Globe tomato can 
take the place of any of the old pink or purple 
varieties now grown. 
Oxheart—118 Days. This is a very late tomato 
with long, thin vines and light foliage. The fruits 
are enormous in size, the shape of a beef heart, and 
with such a solid internal structure that there is 
very little room left for seed. The flavor is very 
mild and sweet which is preferred by some people 
to the more acid flavors. 
Ponderosa or Brimmer—115 Days. The foliage 
of this variety is large and very spreading. The 
fruits are large and flattish round in shape, somewhat 
irregular and a rough exterior. Some call this 
variety “Beefsteak.” Since the internal structure 
is very solid, Ponderosa is favored by many as a 
home garden variety. 
YELLOW VARIETIES 
Golden Queen or Trophy—100 Days. The 
foliage of this variety is similar to Ponderosa. The 
fruits are medium to large in size, flattish round in 
shape. If one prefers a mild, sweet flavored tomato, 
this is just the variety. 
Pear-Shaped Yellow—100 Days. Small yellow 
fruit shaped like a pear. 
Plum-Shaped Yellow—100 Days. Same as 
plum-shaped red in every particular except in color.

TURNIP 
Native probably of Great Britain and Northern Europe. Four Ounces of Seed Will Sow 100 Yards 
of Row. Three Pounds Will Sow an Acre. Matures for Table 60 to 90 Days. According to Variety 
and Season. Breaks ground in 4 days. One inch high in 8 days under most favorable circum¬ 
stances in greenhouse. Turnip seed may be sown when the Peach is in bloom, or among the first seeds in 
early Spring; indeed, the only hope of a successful Spring crop is in an early start, as otherwise the period of 
maturity extends into hot weather, when the bulb becomes fibrous and pungent. Midsummer and early 
Autumn are the seasons for the most successful Turnip drilling to obtain good roots for Winter use. 
WHITE FLESHED SORTS 
Cow Horn or Long White Green Crowned—80 
Days. This cut leaf variety is a pure white, except 
a dash of green in the crown. Roots sometimes 15 
inches long. Is a large cropper. In shape it is very 
much like a long carrot, only it is blunt at the 
point and very often has a slight crook. 
Early Flat Red or Purple Top Strap Leaf—i>0 
Days. This is a very early flat strap leaf Turnip 
with a red or purple crown. Used for cattle feeding 
and extensively for the table. Root flat, about 2 
inches in diameter, flesh white. 
Early Flat White Dutch—50 Days. This Turnip 
is very early and resembles the Early Flat Red or 
Purple Top in most respects except that the roots 
or bulbs are all white. 
Early Snowball—50 Days. The earliest and most 
perfectly formed round white Turnip for garden 
use. A small white globe, very quick in its growth

in cultivation. Similar but earlier than Purple Top. 
Extra Early White Milan—40 Days. Identical to 
the Red Top Milan, except in the color of the top.

quality. 
Large Early Red or Purple Top White Globe—- 
60 Days. This most popular variety is a large 
sized, rapid grower, attractive in appearance.

round, large, solid, pure white, smooth, quick in 
growth for a large turnip. Productive, often 30 to
