SIX GRAND SPECIALTIES IN 



GARDEN SEEDS 



Vaughan's XXX Pickling Cucumber 



We introduced the Chicago Pickle, and are always looking for any 

 improvement reaching toward an ideal pickle for the home garden. 

 We have made selections and had them made for us. We have 

 imported and tried many kinds. We found one two years ago that 

 seemed right, and the past season has satisfied us that this which we 

 have named Vaughan's " XXX " is the best we have yet seen. The 

 form, color and arrangement of spines is ideal. This Cucumber is 

 unquestionably one of the best for pickling. It is one of the most 

 productive and easiest to pick. Few fruits become overgrown, as 

 the stems are long and the fruits protrude from under the leaves. 

 We imported this'cucumber from Europe, where it has been grown 

 in a certain district famous for its pickles for a great many years. 

 It is also one of the best Cucumbers for slicing, being very crisp, 

 solid and of the most agreeable flavor, quite distinct from most 

 kinds. The seed we offer here is American grown. Pkt., ioc. ; 

 % oz., 15c; oz., 25c; 2 oz., 40c; % lb., 60c; lb., $2.00, 

 postpaid. Write for prices on larger lots.
