West India Gherkin or Burr. This is an 

 oval variety, small in size. When grown to its 

 full size it can be stewed with meat. In fact, 

 this is the only use made of it about New 

 Orleans. 



Japanese Climbing Cucumber. The 

 vines are extra strong, and foliage more 

 vigorous than other kinds. Being of a climb- 

 ing habit it can be grown on trellises, etc. 

 Fruit is round, about 10 inches long, thick, 

 of fine flavor. It is very prolific, from forty 

 to fifty cucumbers growing on a single 



plant. Has given satisfaction the past 

 season. 



Steckler's Private Stock Longest Ever- 

 bearing Green. This is a very long green 

 Cucumber, with white spines, being a cross 

 between our famous New Orleans Market and 

 the Japanese varieties, yet decidedly distinct 

 in appearance, and bearing qualities, and will 

 prove a valuable acquisition to our selected 

 list of Cucumbers, as well as of profitable in- 

 terest to all market gardeners. We recom- 

 mend same highly. 



Japan Clover is the only Southern Clover planted from March to April.
