Pkt. 10c, M pt. OLD HOMESTEAD BEANS. ASTRO CUCUMBER. A novelty of the hightest merit, and one which has greatly pleased our market garden customers, some claiming that they made more money from a crop of these grown early in the hot beds than from any other crop, as they sell quickly at $1 00 per dozen. They do excellently well under glass, yielding a continual daily picking of large, perfect shaped fruits, eight to twelve inches long, almost solid throughout. Excellent for slicing, solid and crisp. With common outdoor culture in the summer, it produces large cucumbers fifteen to eighteen inches in length with very few seeds. Seed will always be expensive, as it produces only eight to twelve pounds per acre, while the White Spine and other common sorts produce 200 to 500 pounds. In packets only, containing twenty seeds each. Per pkt. 10c, 6 for 50c.
