BOSS CUCUMBERS 



MAUIiE'S BARJLY WHITE SPINE.— This beautiful Cucumber cannot be praised 

 too highly. As a table sort it is unsurpassed, and in productiveness it is truly remarkable. 

 In 1887 one of my customers sathered, between June and September, over 1.000 Cucumbers 

 from a single hill containing three vines. Fruit grows from 5 to 7 inches in length, and 2 to 3 inches 

 m diameter. Tlie accompanying engraving is an exact illustration of an average specimen. They 

 are always as handsome as shown in the cut, being uniformlv straight, of a rich green -color, with 

 lew White Spines. It is one of the veiy best for forcing purposes. The flesh is alwavs tender crisp 

 and of excellent flavor. Packet, 10 cents ; ounce, 15 cents; J^i lb., 30 cents; lb., 81.00; 5 lbs. $3.00. 

 MAUIIE'S IMPKOVED liONG GREEN — I am confident in describing this variety, no 

 words ol praise can be too strong for its merits. They are always of superior qualitv, firm and crisp, 



growing 12 to 20 inches long. The voung fruit makes one of the 

 best of pickles while when ripe they are the best of any for 

 sweet pickles. Vines are strong growers, and fruit is always 

 pnjduced in great abundance, making it one of the most 

 productive varieties in cultivation. Packet, 10 cents; 

 ounce, 15 cents ; y^ lb., 30 cents ; lb., 81.00 ; 5 lbs., 83.00. 

 GREEN PROIilPIC— The very finest 

 pickling Cucumber. Of the very best form and 

 quality, yielding at the rate of 200,000 and more 

 pickles per acre, of remarkable uniformity. 

 It Is one of the most valuable Improve- 

 ments in Its class, and gives satisfaction, 

 'acket, 5 cent^ ; ounce, 10 cents ; 14 pound, 

 cents ; pound, 65 cents.
