BUIST'S PRIZE BELLE TOMATO. Buist's Belle.—With the exception of our Majestic this is the largest and best of all varieties (weighing 1} pounds) of the most perfect lorm. It is a hybrid of the famous Beauty, introduced by us a few years since, which was universally acknowledged as the largest and best variety known, having been awarded first prize wherever exhibited. The Belle is earlier than the Beauty, and still larger in size, many specimens weighing the past season 1J pounds each, and as solid as an apple, of a beautiful bright scarlet color, free from crack, and remaining perfect on the vine longer than any other variety. There has been no sort ever introduced that has given such perfect satisfaction, and proved such a favorite, as the Belle; in fact, we cannot see how any farther improve- ment can be made on the Tomato, as it pos- sesses not only the largest size, but the great- est solidity, finest flavor, smallest quantity of seeds, richness of color and shipping quali- ties unequalled.
