NEW POINTS ABOUT TOMATOES.
Peculiarities of Different Varieties i'm
the Market.

There are spring novelties in vegetables
as well as in bonnets," remarked a promi.
nent seed dealer recently 1.-THE latest
style or newest variety, in tomatoes is The
Mikado. 1t is of immense size, perfect
solidity and unsurpassed quality 1t is of
an altogether different character from the
varieties introduced of late years. The
color is purplish red and it is not unusual
for single fruits of this to weigh from one
to one and half pounds each. The foliage
would alone show the distinctiyeness of the
variety, for it is different from that of any
other. Another new variety is the tree
tomato, fruit naturalized in the island OF
Jamaica. 1t is of shrubby habit growing
five or six feet high, and the leaves are
large, often foot long; the flowers are
fragrant and of pale flesh color, with yell
low stamens, and the fruit is the shape and
size of an egg, at first of purplish tint and
gradually assuming warm, reddish color
as it ripens. Even in jamaica it is not gen.
orally known, but Mr. Morris, director of
public gardens in that island, who calls at
tention to the plant, says that it should be
largely cultivated, as it answers in every re-
spect the purpose for which the ordinary
tomato is esteemed. While raw it has
gooseberry favor and when stewed with
sugar it resembles the apricot"
g Are there many varieties of tomatoesi'
" No less than twenty three besides those
I have named. There is the Gen Grant
which is a very superior fruit, large, OF
good quality and ripens rapidly and thor
oughly and the Cardinal, which is bril-.
liant cardinal red when ripe, appearing as
if vanished with the flesh of almost as bright
color. One of the largest and most per-
feet shaped varieties in cultivation is the
Liyingstone's fayorite. II ripens evenly
and early, aud holds its size to the end of
the season. The earliest large tomato grown
is the Mayfower. The shape is perfectly
globular, slightly fattened and perfectly
smooth, and it is of a glossy red color One
Of the earliest and handsomest ever intro
duced is the Acme. 1t is of crimson color
with pinkish tinge, of medium size, regu-
lar in shape, perfectly smooth ard solid"
