The “‘Henderson’”’ White Spine Cucumber 
EXTRA EARLY :: HEALTHY :: PROLIFIC 
Perfection has been attained in this grand improvement in the 
White Spine family. - 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 the ideal for slicing; the flesh is compact, dne 
grained, sparkling white and of most refreshing and delightful flavor. 
The vines are vigorous, quite healthy, and mildew-proof, maintaining 
their luxuriance and bearing abundantly from the earliest to the 
latest season. In every respect this variety is without a peer.

“From one packet of Henderson's White Spine Cucumber I have grown 
1,000 cucumbers some weighing as much as 2 lbs. each.’ 
Oct. 25, J. KELLER, Havemeyer St., Brooklyn, N. Y. 
“Vour White Spine Cucumber is certainly fine. Last year I planted 
packet, from the product of which I sold $6.50 worth, not to mention having 
sufficient for making 20 quarts of first-class pickles.” 
“March 20, R. BAERMAN, Rushford, Minn. 
“We were mica pleased with the seeds brought from Henderson's last year. 
One of the good things was the White Spine Cucumber, and it was the first time 
we ever grew good cucumbers.” 
March 2, Miss ANGIE BOUGHNER, Sistersville, W. Va. 
“On June znd last year, we purchased from you five pounds of Henderson's 
White Spine Cucumber seed. We planted this seed together with twenty-five 
or thirty pounds from other seedsmen and we think it only fair that we should 
tell you of the great superiority of your seed over that purchased elsewhere. 
The seed we received from you developed good dark green cukes, fine shape, 
few culls, vines strong and healthy. Surely in these days when so much inferior 
seed of all kinds is sold to us farmers, it is a pleasure to be able to speak in such 
high praise rf the way your cucumber seed grew for us last season.

Henderson’s Cool and Crisp Cucumber 
:: Exceedingly Prolific :: 
Bears the Whole Season 
An extra early, exceedingly prolific and continuous- 
bearing variety; a very distinct and attractive selection of 
the 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 beautiful dark green, shading off a little 
paler toward blossom end. It is one of the best Cucumbers 
for slicing and general use, the flesh being remarkably 
firm and crisp; it also yields a good number of fruits 
for pickling and holds its crop. or an unusually 
= long period. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt.,
