STOKES SEED FARMS COMPANY MOORESTOWN, NEW JERSEY 



No. 314 — Davis Perfect 



Days to Maturity, 60. Originated by Mr. Eugene Davis, of Grand Rapids, Michigan. 

 The fruits of this variety will attain a length of ten inches. They are dark green in color, 

 tender and highly suitable as a slicing variety. The vines are hardy and vigorous, and will 

 continue to bear for a long period. Pkt. 10c, oz. 20c, 34 lb. 50c, 1 lb. $1.50, postpaid. 



No. 330— West India Gherkin 



Days to Maturity, 50. One of the oldest varieties known in America. A native of 

 Jamaica. Introduced by Minton Collins, of Richmond, Virginia, in 1793. It is the smallest 

 variety of Cucumber on the market and is in considerable demand for small pickles. The 

 fruits will average from two to two and one-half inches in length and should be 

 picked when young and tender. We would call special attention to the fact that 

 the seeds are rather difficult to germinate, sometimes requiring from two 

 to three weeks, therefore, we would recommend a very carefully prepared 

 seed bed. Pkt. 20c, oz. 40c, % lb. $1.00,^1 lb. $3.00, postpaid. 



No. 317 — Green Prolific or Boston Pickling 



Days to Maturity, 60. First offered by Briggs in 1866 as Green Prolific. 

 Apparently the name, Boston Pickling, was attached to this as a result of 

 an introduction made by Johnson & Stokes in 1888. It is a black spine 

 variety, perhaps more in use as a commercial pickling sort than any other. 

 The fruits will average from five to six inches in length when fully developed . 

 However, they are harvested at an earlier stage for most pickling opera- 

 tions. It is an early, heavy yielding variety and the stock offered is of 

 high quality and is recommended without reservation. Pkt. 5c, oz. 20c, 

 postpaid. 



No. 316— Early Fortune 



Days to Maturity, 60. One of the new strains of Cucumber. We are not well informed as to its 

 origin. The fruits will average from seven to eight inches in length, are cylindrical, rather small 



seed cavity and thick through. 

 50c, 1 lb. $1.50, postpaid. 



They are of excellent quality for slicing. Pkt. 10c, oz
