^ 254 Maule's Earliest Black Diamond Cucumber 



50 days. The Earliest of the White Spine Type. It "Stays Green." Holds Its Dark Green 



Color a Long While 



Maule's Earliest Blac\ Diamond is the Cucumber all growers are looking for. It is adapted to all sections and 

 soils. We especially recommend it to all growers that grow Cucumbers either in small or large quantities, for the 

 home garden, market or long distance shipping. The fruit grows seven to eight inches in length, cylindrical in 

 shape, smooth and handsome. The color is a dark green from end to end, with little white rays at the blossom 

 end. Maule's Earliest Black Diamond retains this dark green color longer than any kind we know of. On this 

 account it will always command the highest market price. _ The flesh is white, firm, crisp, and of the very best 

 quality for slicing. The vine makes a vigorous growth and is an enormous yielder of dark, always green, Cucum- 

 bers, maturing in about 50 days.

^ 244 Maule's Extra Early Cucumber 



55 days. First for the Table, Market and Pickling 



This widely popular Cucumber is as early as Green Cluster. 

 Although early, the fruits are of fine quality and the color an 

 attractive dark green. When suitable for pickling, the Cucum- 

 bers are straight, square ended and very firm. When ready 

 for slicing they are 6 to 7 inches long, crisp and of a most 

 delicious flavor. The vines are of extra vigorous growth and 

 produce an abundance of fruits, which arc fit for the table 

 or market in 55 days. 



Its extreme earliness is, however, its greatest recommenda- 

 tion, making it invaluable. Its earliness and its very high 

 qualit\' make it a good variety for both home and market 

 gardens, or for planting in June or July for late pickles.
