Valuable New Tomato.
Early varieties of tomatoes are especially valuable to market gardeners, and are always welcome for planting in the home garden. The Earliana, illustrated from life, has been tested in various sections for several years, although but recently offered to the public. Under test it has proved earlier than any desirable sort by from a week to ten days, according to locality. The plant is a strong grower and the fruit is set in great abundance. In size it may be termed medium rather than large, but the form is that most desirable of all shapes, round, while the bright red color will make it attractive to the consumer. The flavor is very fine, a point particularly desirable for those who cater to the select city trade. Unlike most early sorts, this variety is solid, and has as yet shown no disposition to crack.
