THORBURN'S NEW EVER-BEARING CUCUMBER. This new yariety, first ofifered last year, will prove very useful on account of its ever-hearing character. The first cucumbers are ready very early; then the vines continue to flower and produce fruit continu- ously until killed by frost, whether the ripe cucumbers are picked off or not, differing in this respect from all other sorts in cultiva- tion. A single vine will exhibit at the same time, cucumbers in every stage of growth, the small ones being perfect in shape, of a fine green color, and just the size for pick- ling. They are re- markably solid, with few seeds, and of very fine quality both for slicing and pickling. Per pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; J R) 50 cts.: per lb $ GRAND RAPIDS LETTUCE. As many as fifty large greenhouses at Grand Rapids, Mich., are devoted to forc- ing this lettuce in winter ; the growers have distanced all competitors, and ob- tained the highest prices in the markets of all the cities to which they have shipped. Of superior quality and beau- tiful appearance, the Grrand Rapids Lettuce is a strong grower, free from rot, and keeps crisp and tender without wilting, when exposed for sale, longer than any other forcing lettuce. We have also found it a desirable variety for early spring sowing in the open ground. The en- graving is from a photograph.
