Alneer’s New Giant Cardinal] This tomato is well named. 
- The color is a rich cardi- 
nal red. The skin is so tough that it is a splendid keeper and 
shipper, and is less liable to crack in wet weather than any other 
large tomato. Unsurpassed for market or table. The plant is a 
strong grower, and is very productive. The fruit is free from core, 
and the seed spaces are small. The leaves are a rich, dark green 
color, and very luxuriant. Pkt. 10c, oz. 50c, 14 lb. $1.75, Y2 Ib. $3.00, 
Ib. $5.75. 
. 7 Is more symmetrical in shape than the Pon- 
Crimson King derosa and is much thicker through from stem 
to blossom-end; in fact, so marked is this characteristic that it is fre- 
quently almost round. The color is brilliant scarlet-crimson, untinged 
with purple, and ripens up almost completely to the stem. The Crimson 
King, like the Ponderosa, is almost seedless. The flesh is firm and 
meaty, solid as beefsteak, and of superb quality. It is enormously 
prolific and early for so large a tomato. Pkt. 10c, oz. 50c, Ys Ib. $1.75, 
1% Ib. $3.25, Ib. $6.25.
