The fruits are larsro. smooth and nearly solid, with but few seeds; color dark glossy or purple red, ripen up evenly aroiiiul tlie stem, no green spots or hard core. One of the best shipping varieti(-s, as it stands up well. In quality and flavor cannot be .>fu?ely from early to late in the season. Best known shipper; should be shipped in the or yellow stage. Its color changes during ripening are remarkable. At maturity it is a rich, bright red. This tomato is certain to become widely famous, as it is distinct from all other sorts. If picked in the early stage of ripen- ing, will keep from one to four weeks if stored in a cool place. Its table qualities are excellent, the flesh, when fully ripe, being tender and melting. Per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 20 cts., *4 lb. 65 cts. THE SUCCESS. A magnificent new Scarlet Tomato of finest quality. It is smooth, well formed and extremely deep from stem to blos- som, making it unusually heavy. It ripens evenly to the stem and is without ridges or cracks. It is firm without being hard, few seeds, an un- rivaled home tomato and an unequalled shipper. The vines are vigorous but compact, always fruits in clusters. On account of its brilliant red color, dr'pth and solidity, it is one of the handsomest Tomatoes grown. Per. pkt. 5 cts., oz. 25 cts., % lb. 75 cts. LIVINGSTON'S PERFECTION. An early variety of considerable merit, of a blood-red color, round in shape, perfectly smooth, and very solid; ripens uniformly, and bears abundantly until frost comes; free from seeds, and for canning purposes it surpasses any hitherto offered. Per. pkt. 6 cts., oz. 15 cts
