416 THE HENDERSON 



Rich deep green color — Extra Early — Prolific 



It is early, prolific, and produces a continuous crop of uniformly 

 large and symmetrical fruits of an intensely rich, deep green color, 

 faintly marked with light yellowish shading toward the tip. It runs 

 very close to type, bearing practically no misshapen fruit or 

 culls. It is ideal for slicing; the flesh is compact, fine grained, 

 sparkling white and of most refreshing and delightful flavor. 

 The vines are vigorous, healthy and mildew-proof, maintaining 

 their luxuriance and bearing abundantly from the earliest to 

 the latest season. (See illustration.) 



Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; X lb., 75c; lb.. $2.00; transportation 

 paid. 



391 CHINESE (New) 



The fruits are long and slender, often 

 measuring 15 inches in length. It is 

 extra good for slicing and for pickles, the 

 flesh being crisp and tender. An im- 

 portant quality of this Chinese variety 

 is its disease-resisting power, not being 

 at all subject to blight and fungus dis- 

 eases. It keeps on bearing fruits much 

 longer than any variety of Cucumber. 

 (See illustration.)

Firm and Crisp — Bears the Whole Season

 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. (See illustration.)
