CUCUMBER. 



CONTINUED. 



EVER-BEARING CUCUMBER. 



This variety is unique, and will prove valuable 

 both for the table and for pickling. Is of small 

 6ize, 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, whether the ripe Cucumbers are picked off 

 or not, in which respect it differs from all other 

 sorts In cultivation.

EGG PLANT. 



CULTUBE. — Sow the seed in hot-beds 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, wher 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 vege- 

 tate 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 observea in 

 cutting the fruit, so as not to disturb the roots of the plants. One ounce 

 will produce about 1,000 plants. 



BALTIMORE EGG PLANT This is decidedly the best and most profit- 

 able Egg Plant in cultivation. It is large, thornless, of beautiful shape and 

 handsome purple color. We have never seen finer specimens of Egg Plant 

 than those grown from our seed. When inspecting the field of Egg Plants 

 growing for seed we were surprised at the regular size and uniform, hand- 

 some color of the fruit all over the field.
