With those who grew it last season it is a favorite. If you are fond of cucumbers and want one that will almost melt in your mouth, try our Lemon. Our illustration is from a photograph of the fruits, in comparison, with an or- dinary Cucumber. They are nearly round, with the yellow and green markings and smooth skin of the Lemon, while the flesh is exceedingly tender and crisp, with a sweet flavor surpassing all other Cucumbers. They have none of the bit- ter or acid taste so generally found in Cucumbers. For slicing they excel, and are well adapted for serving whole upon the table. For pickling, ripe or green, one of the best and most attractive, on account of their quaint form. They can be served green but are at the best just as they are turning yellow. This variety has given us great satisfaction for fam- ily use and also for pickling, as we tested this sort along with others at our trial grounds.
