Longcu Cucumber 
383 A fancy Cucumber growing 12 or 13 inches in length, with rich deep green skin 
and tew spines, and equal in appearance to the greenhouse product. Longcu 
is suited equally well to both outdoor and under glass production, and it is 
specially valuable outside on account of its surprising earliness, as it can be 
picked along with Early Fortune, and other early slicing sorts. Under reason- 
ably favourable growing conditions, Longcu will produce outside fruits 3 inches 
longer than the accompanying photo. Pkt., 15 cts.; 4 oz., 35 cts.: oz., 60 cts. 
x lb., $1.75; lb., $6.00. 
Broad Leaved Dandelion 
401 The Dandelion until recent years had been known only as a troublesome weed, 
but it has now been so greatly improved that it is now recognized as a most 
healthful early spring vegetable, eaten either raw as salad, or cooked and served 
like greens. Our strain of Broad-leaved Dandelion produces large bushy plants, 
with broad, succulent leaves of a slightly bitter flavor. Quality is considerably 
improved by blanching the plants, which can be done by covering them with 
leaves or other litter, although boarding up like celery or covering with inverted 
boxes will give better results. Pkt., 15 cts.; 3 0z., 60 cts.; oz., $1.00; 3 lb., $3.00. 
Dreer’s Giant Fringed Endive 
412 Endive is a plant requiring rapid growth and is highly esteemed for table use. 
and in some states can be grown all the year round. The above sort is a strong 
growing variety with a large white heart and broad stems, good for fall and win- 
ter. On account of the beautifully curled and finely cut leaves this variety is 
used freely for garnishing as well as making a delicious salad. Pkt., 10 cts.; 
3 0Z., 20 cts.; 0z., 30 cts.; + Ib., 85 cts. 
Dwarf Curled Scotch Kale 
424 This selected stock is specially fine, growing handsome and vigorous plants 
15 to 18 inches high with finely curled, frilled leaves of a rich blue-green color. 
It is very hardy and the flavor is more delicate than the solid heads of Cabbage, 
While, being exceptionally hardy it can stand out all winter, in fact a touch of 
frost improves the flavor, and to all who have a taste for greens we strengly 
recommend this healthful and profitable vegetable. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 25 cts.; 
1\b., 70 cts.; lb., $2.00. 
Dreer’s All-heart Lettuce : 
440 The name is truly descriptive, because the few loose outer leaves cause the heads 
to be almost entirely solid hearts. Now thoroughly tested in all soils and sec- 
tions, we have yet to hear of an instance where Dreer’s All-Heart Lettuce did not 
come through with flying colors. While suitable for summer use in cool sections, 
it is pre-eminently an early spring variety and gives best results in soils holding 
an abundance of humus or other quickly available plant food. 
The heads are of delicate yellowish-green color, making it most attractive. 
The flavor is excellent and in crispness it surpasses the majority of other butter- 
heads. Pkt., 10 cts.; 4 oz., 25 cts.; oz.; 45 cts.; { lb., $1.25.
