FromProf. Bailey we quote the following: This proved to be a small and angular variety of nopromise; but one plant bore fruits of remarkable beauty,solidity, size and uniformity. * * * From our own experi-ence and the reports of others who have tried it, we are in-clined to think that it deserves a front rank among the Toma-toes. With us, as compared with Mikado, it is larger, smoother,more solid, less subject to rot, more productive, and is moredesirable, both as an early and as a late variety. We find the Ignotum on our grounds to do just exactly asthe originator claims for it. Per pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 34lb., 50 cts.; lb. $ PEACH. The fruit of this new variety resembles theform and color of the peach ; its fruity appearance is furthercarried out by the texture of the flesh. The tomatoes are ofa beautiful deep rose, blended with amber, and covered witha delicate bloom like the fuzz of a peach, from which fruit itis hard to distinguish them. The tomatoes are borne in-clustersof 4 to 6, and are very solid, the flesh being meatyand rich, and unsurpassed in delicate flavor; the fruit is en-tirely free from acid taste, and they are fine for eating out ofhand as fruit. It is very productive, the vines being coveredwith luscious fruit, borne in clusters from 4 to 8. Per pkt., &cts. ; oz., 15 cts. ; lb., 45 cts. ; lb., $ EARLY MAYFLOWER.
