For many years we have supplied pickle seed to many prominent New Jersey growers in the cele- 

 brated pickle district on the Delaware River, about twenty-tive miles above Philadelphia, where more 

 cucumbers are grown than in any other section of theUnited States, over one hundred and fifty 

 thousand bushels being picked and annually put up for commercial pickles in this section. 



For this reason we have given unusual attention to the selection and improvement of cucumbei 

 seed for pickUs, and in tliis new strain, which is the result of nine years' careful breeding, we 



have a strain which is pronounced by grow- 

 ers of 30 years' experience a perfect pickle 

 in all i-espects. Its desirable form and uniform 

 size are well shown in the above photograph. 

 The skin is thin, tlesh white, crisp and tender 

 with but few seeds. The vines are strong and 

 vigorous, bearing continuously and long 

 after all other varieties have ceased to pro- 

 duce. Pkt., lOc; oz., 15c.; \ lb., 35c.; lb., 

 $1.25, postpaid, by mail. 



Ocirly opring Cabbage 



A valuable acquisition, being a round, 

 rtat-lieaded cabbag-e as early as 

 Wakelield, and one-third more productive. 

 It is of the Early Summer type, heads a tritle 

 smaller, very solid, with few small outside 

 leaves, enabling it to be planted very close; 

 very uniform in shape and size, finely bred 

 and free from any rankness of flavor. Grow- 

 ers will find the Early Spring: a most 

 profitable variety ; by planting 21 inches 

 apart, you can grow 13,500 to the acre. Seed 

 grown by the originator. Very scarce. Pkt., 

 15c. ; oz., 60c.; 4 ounces for |2.00.
