This variety is of small size, very early, enormously productive and valuable as a green pickler. The vines contin- ue to flower and produce fruit whether the ripe cucumbers are picked off or not, in which re- spect it differs from all other sorts. Per pkt. 5 cts., ob. 15 cts., V lb. 50 cts., lb. $ DAVIS PERFECT. A fine variety for both out- door and forcing. It is a most carefully se- lected strain of extra long white spine type made by a veterans cucumber grower. The fruit grows 11 to 12 inches long on an average slight pointed, a dark, glossy color, which they keep until ripe, then turning white. In quality it is very tender, brittle and of fine flavor. A very vigorous grower, withstanding blight bet- ter than long sorts. Per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., M lb. 35 cts., lb. $ LIVINGSTON'S EVERGREEN. This is one of the most prolific of all varieties. This cucum- ber possesses every qualification of a perfect pickle sort. Very hardy and everygreen, with- standing drouth, and bearing until frost. A very strong grower but early and the best in flavor, bearing firm, crisp fruit, either for pickling or slicing.

A distinct variety: when full grown sometimes measuring nearly 18 inches in length: form long and slender, with but few seeds; flesh remarkably firm and crispy, a standard variety for pickling, very productive, and better than most varieties of Long Green. Per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., Y lb. 50 cts., lb. $ EARLY FORTUNE (52 days). A very early white spine cucumber and an enormous yielder. Widely used by home gardners and shippers.
