Nurseries (Horticulture) New York (State) Rochester Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs. JOSEPH HARRIS CO., MORETON FARM, COLDWATER, N.

JAPANESE CLIMBING CUCUMBER. When this cucumber was first brought to our notice we were rather skeptical as to its merits. A "climbing cucumber" seemed of doubt- ful value, but when we gave it a trial we found that it was a remarkably fine cu- cumber. Although the vines will climb if given an oppor- tunity, they do perfectly well on the ground like other cucumbers. Their vigor of growth and healthy foliage are quite remarkable. The cucumbers grow long, straight, dark green, and are very solid and crisp. Season medium to late. Quite pro- lific. Lb. 90c., 3^ lb. 25c., oz. lOc, pkt. Giant Para. Paris Pickling. Jap. Climbing.

The cucumbers grow perfectly smooth and round and are of a very dark green. They retain their color until ripe; they never turn yellow. It is certainly a very fine cucumber either for home use or market. The handsome appearance of the fruit and its perfect shape make it a profitable market variety, and its superior quality will be appreciated by all who grow it. Lb. 80c., U lb. 25c., oz. 10c. pkt. 5c. PARIS PICKLING CUCUMBER. This is called a "pickling " cucumber, and is undoubt- edly valuable for this purpose, being long, slender and crisp and dark green, but in our opinion there is no cucumber equal to it for slicing for table use. When the cucumbers are 8 to 10 inches long they are not over 1 or 134 inch
