. Currie's farm and garden annual : spring 1921 46th year. Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. CURRIE BROTHERS COMPANY, MILWAUKEE, Davis Perfect Cucumber. CUCUMBERS 1 oz. to 100 kills. 2 to 3 lbs. to tbe acre in bills. Culture—Do not sow Cucumber Seed in cold soil. Should you want an early crop, start them in flower pots in the hot-bed or indoors, placing five seeds in each and thin out to three plants when well up. When fairly well rooted, transplant into the open, being- careful not to disturb the roots as they are very tender. Before moving- them they must be hardened off well and the ground must be fairly warm, and if you have a small window-light handy place it over the plants, mounting same on stones or stakes; this helps to warm the soil. An excellent method of getting a good crop is to place a shovelful of well rotted manure in each hill. Several varieties should be grown, the short-fruited, more prolific sorts for pickling, and the long varie- ties for table use. Plant the hills 4 feet apart. Always pick the fruit when large enough or the vitality of the plant will become impaired. DAVIS PERFECT—Unequalled in quality, shape and color, for forcing indoors, or for outside growing. The color is a dark, glossy green, shape slim and symmetrical, with an average length of 10 to 12 inches. It is as early as White Spine, a strong grower, and very prolific. It is a splendid shipper and retains its excellent quality and brittleness long after being cut. Pkt. 10c; 1 oz. 20c; Vi lb. 50c; 1 lb. $ ClIRRIE'S MILWAUKEE PICKLE—The best pickling Cucumber in cultivation. For productiveness it is unequalled, and the quality of the fruit is the very best. We cannot speak too highly of its merits, and judging from the numerous letters we have received in its praise, its fame has become widespread. Pkt. 10c; 1 oz
