CUCUMBER 



CONTINUED. 



EVER= BEARING CUCUMBER 



This variety is unique and will prove valuable 

 both for the table and for pickling. Is of small 

 size, very early, enormously productive and ex- 

 tremely valuable as a green pickler. The peculiar 

 merit of this new Cucumber is that the vines con- 

 tinue to flower and produce fruit until killed by 

 frost, whetlier the ripe Cucumbers are picked ofC 

 or not. In which respect it differs from all other 

 sorts in cultivation.

EGG PLANT 



CUIiTUBE. — Sow the seed in hotbeds early in March. When three inclies 

 high pot the young plants, using small pots, and plunge them in tlie same 

 bed so that the plants may become stocky. They can be planted out from 

 the pots when the season becomes sufficiently warm in May or June, or 

 tliey can be transplanted into a second bed to make them strong until tlie 

 weather is warm enough to transplant about three feet apart each way in 

 thoroughly-worked and well-enriched soil. Draw the earth up to the stems 

 when about a foot high. Egg Plant Seed will not vegetate freely without 

 a strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least chilled in the earlier 

 stages of growth they seldom recover. Tlierefore, repeated sowings are 

 sometimes necessary. Care should be observed in cutting the fruit so as 

 not to disturb the roots of the plants. One ounce will produce about 1000 

 plants.
