. Annual circular and retail catalogue of warranted vegetable and flower seeds. Gardening United States Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds United States Catalogs; Fruit Seeds United States Catalogs. Paragon Tomato. This fine new tomato, for two years in succession, has taken the first prize in its cla*s, at the annual exhibitions of the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society—where the critical standard is of the very highest character. The engraving makes a good presentation of its characteristic shape. It is a large sized variety, larger than several of the standard kinds cultivated. The meat is solid and well flavored. In time of ripening it comes between the early and the late varieties. I cannot guarantee that this or any one kind of tomato will do equally well in all localities, but such a magnificent variety as the Paragon is certainly worthy of general trial. Per package, 15 Marblehead Champion Pole Bean. After testing on my experimental grounds for the past ten years almost every variety of pole bean known, I find this new pole bean excels every other variety in earliness. While, as is well known to market gardeners, the pole varieties do not usually begin to blossom until the first picking has been made on the early sorts of bush beans that were planted at the same date, the Marblehead Cham- pion Pole will be found to be so early as to have beans ready to pick for market as early or earlier than the earliest bush varieties*. Per package, 15 cents, \.
