HENDERSON'S TESTED SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 



CUCUMBER 



Cool and Crisp, Henderson's 



Firm and Crisps-Bears the Whole Season 



An extra early, exceedingly prolific and continuous-bearing 

 variety; a very distinct and attractive selection of the old 

 White Spine class; the shape is unique, rather longer than 

 most sorts, tapering at each end, slightly ridged throughout, 

 with but few "knobs." The color is a beautiful dark green, 



shading off a little toward blossom end. One of the best 



for slicing and a grand pickling sort. {See engraving). 



Price, oz. 20c, $i lb. 50c, lb. $1.50. 



"I found the Cool and Crisp to be an excellent variety' 

 both in quality and quantity. In fact, all the seeds I go' 

 from you proved to be exceptionally good." 



MR. Le ROY G. PORTER, Hanover, N. H. 



Extra 



Green 



Davis Perfect 



Attractive Slim Dark Green Fruits 



A very well bred selection of the White 

 Spine class, chiefly distinguished by the long, 

 slim character of the fruits, a shape that is 

 coming into favor on account of its adapta- 

 bility for slicing. It has excellent color and 

 the flesh is remarkably crisp and delicate in 

 flavor. The vines have the strength and vigor 

 characteristic of the White Spine type, which 

 ensures a good crop of perfect fruits. (See 

 engraving). Price, oz. 20c, }4 lb. 50c, lb. $1.50. 

 (25 lbs. and upwards $1.25 lb.) 



"The Davis Perfect Cucumber seed I bought from you 

 gave great satisfaction. The shape was peifect and the 

 crop was astonishingly large." 



HARRY E. HAIGLEY, Twining City, N. C. 



"It may interest you to know that the seed that yon sent 

 me last year for comparison was belter than any other in 

 quality and produced more fancy shipping cucumbers." 



PROF. E. L. LORD, Gainesville, Florida. 



"I found the Cool and Crisp to be an excellent variety both 

 in quality and quantity. In fact all the seeds that I got 

 from you were exceptionally good.
