Tt can also be grown as an ordinary Cucumber and will do as well as the common kind. The fruits are ten to twelve inches in length, of a fine green color: the flesh is thick and firm, never bitter, and fine for pickling, as well as slicing. It is very prolific, the vines are proof against mildew and continue bearing until late in the fall. Per pkt. 10 3 pkts 25 Wliile Pearl Gilcilmber. This new variety is the admiration of all gardeners. In habit of growth this variety is en- tirely distinct from any other cucumber. Set- ting the fruit very close around the stem and maturing these early, the vine continues to run and bear freely throughout the season. The color is a beautiful pearly white; even the young cucumbers are a very light color, nearly as pure white as when ready for use. They are tender, solid and crisp, and splendid quality, either for slicing or pickling.
