CUCUMBER. B0*S£i°nti£?SS™^'i?WQUp?{Si tor o« large and well ailed packages and ounces. Our stocks are of the very best only, and pure and true. GIANT very large and most prolific variety; from eighteen to twenty-two inches long, and uniform- ly grows very smooth and straight. The skin is a beautiful medium green, perfectlv smooth, and retains its clear green color until nearly ripe. They are very thick through, perfectly round, full at the blossom end, and of equal diameter throughout, except that they taper a Little at the stem end. The green Cucumbers are fit to eat at any stage, the flesh is entire- ly white, very clear, peculiarly crisp, tender and brittle, witn very few seeds, and free from the obnoxious "green cucumber ; The seed cavity is remarkably small, and the seeds are so slow to form that even large cucumbers, twelve to fifteen inches in length and three inches in diameter, are still equally as firm and crisp as smaller specimens, the seeds being yet almost unformed. A matured Giant Pera eighteen to twenty-two inches long will hardly give as much seed as a small, short. green Cucumber. Pkt., 3c; oz., Sc.; % lb., 22c; lb., 68c.

Pkt., 4c.; oz., 8c; % lb., 22c; lb., 68c WHITE PEARL.—In habit of growth it is entirely distinct, setting the Cucumbers very close around the stem, and maturing these ear- ly; then afterward the vines continue
