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 continue to flower and produce fruit until killed 

 by frost, whether the ripe Cucumbers*are picked off or not, in which respect 

 it differs from all other sorts in cultivation. Pkt., 5c. Oz., 10c. 1/4 lb., 

 25c. lib., 75c.

BALTIMORE 



CULTURE. — Sow the seed in hotbeds early in March. When three inches 

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

 they can be transplanted into a second bed to make them strong until the 

 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. Therefore, 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.
