AND PRICE LIST. 27 111 spring. It will increase rapidly, if the conditions are favorable, and reappear every spring, with no further attention. WATER CRESS.—A hardy aquatic plant. CUCUHBER. French, Concombre; German, Gurke; Spanish, Cofwmbro. Cucumbers need a warm, sandy soil, and should not be planted in open ground until the weather is settled and warm, as they will not thrive until the ground is thoroughly warmed. Plant in hills four feet apart each way, thinning to three or four of the strongest plants, after danger from insects is passed. Sprinkle the young plants with fine ashes, plaster, or air-slaked lime, to protect them from bugs. As fast as the cucumbers attain a suitable size, they should be taken from the vine, whether required for use or not, as their ripening soon destroys the vine's fruitfulness. The fruit should be carefully shaded, as expos- ure to the sun causes the flesh to become tinted with green, and bitter. When preparing cucumbers for the table, all flesh so affected should be removed. EARLY or PEERLESS WHITE SPINE. —Even in shape at both ends, and uniform in size and color. In great demand for pickling, being the variety almost universally grown for the pickle factories of San Francisco. Also a fine market and table sort. White Spine. EARLY LONG WHITE SPINE.—Has the characteristic White Spine qualities, but is longer than other varieties. A favorite early sort for forcing. EARLY SHORT GREEN, or EARLY FRAME.—A vigorous and productive variety, producing fruit of medium size and regular form; flesh crisp and tender; excellent for the table, or for pickling while small. EARLY CLUSTER.—A productive early kind. The fruit, which is not large, is borne in clusters, and is crisp, and of good flavor. NICHOL'S riEDI
