Klondike Cucumber 



This valuable new variety is one of the 

 best for slicing, and will prodnce Cucum- 

 bers equal in appearance to the hot home 

 grown specimens. 



The color is rich dark green, and the 

 fruits grow to a uniform size, measuring 

 about seven inches long and two inches 

 thick when in good condition for use. It 

 matures early and continues bearing for a 

 long time, and the vines make such a 

 healthy and vigorous growth that they 

 produce a good crop even in a poor sea- 

 son, when many other varieties fail ea 

 account of unseasonable weather. 



lb. 25 cts., lb. 75 cts. 



Lemon Cucumber 



A new and entirely distinct type. Tender, 

 Bweet and crisp. The Lemon Cucumber 

 has come to stay, its popularity increasing. 

 With those who grew it last season it is a 

 favorite. If you are fond of cucumbers 

 and want one that will almost melt in your 

 mouth, try our Lemon. 



Our illustration is from a photograph of 

 the fruits, in comparison, with an ordinary 

 Cucumber. They are nearly round, with 

 the yellow and green markings and smooth 

 skin of the Lemon, while the flesh is ex- 

 ceedingly tender and crisp, with a sweet 

 flavor surpassing all other Cucumbers. 

 They have none of the bitter or acrid taste 

 so generally found in Cucumbers. For slic- 

 ing they excel, and are well adapted for 

 serving whole upon the table. For pickling, 

 ripe or green, one of the best and most at- 

 tractive, on account of their quaint form. 

 They can be served green but are at the 

 best just as they are turning yellow. This 

 variety has given us great satisfaction for 

 family use and also for pickling, as we 

 tested this sort along with others at our 

 trial grounds. Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 

 25 cts., % lb. 75 cts. 



Lemon Cucumber 



New Pop Corn 



Black Beauty 



An extra early variety which pops vefry large and is the most tender and crisp of all. Although the 

 -kernels are black, this color does not seem to show at all when popped, being then a pearly white. This 

 new variety has been bred in Wisconsin and is extremely early, ripening so it may be popped the same 

 season as grown, without kiln drying. Whn popped it expands to la?rger size of any we have seen, for 

 ^rispness and flavor not excelled by any. Price per pkt. 5 cts., V* pt. 20 cts., 2 for 35 cts.
