Kendel's Early Giant Sweet Corn 



This new and distinct variety of 

 Sweet Corn combines more merit 

 than any other early variety in cul- 

 tivation. The ears grow to a tre- 

 mendous size, measuring 8 to 10 

 inches long, and havin£: ten to 

 twelve rows on each cob. Kernels 

 pure white, sweet and tender. 



Dealers and truckers report ready 

 sales and are enthusiastic over its 

 large size and productiveness, as 

 well as its white cob and good eat- 

 ing qualities. Where it was offered 

 with Minnesota and Cory, none of 

 the latter could be sold until the 

 former was gone. 



Kendel's Early Giant Sweet Corn is an article of real merit, and hence it gives us pleasure to offer this 

 variety to our customers and we believe will come into general use and will entirely supplant Early 

 Minnesota. Per pkt. 5 cts., pt. 30 cts., qt. 50 cts., pk. 75 cts., bu. $2.50.

Cool and Crisp'' Cucumber 



'Cool and Crisp" Cucumber 



This valuable variety is inclined to taper 

 off at the stem end, and is generally a little 

 pointed at the other end also. This is the 

 most desirable shape for pickles. At the 

 pickling stage the cucumbers are straight, 

 long, even and slim, and until they reach 

 their full size they are of a very dark 

 green color, so dark that it might almost 

 be called "black." This variety is the ear- 

 liest and most prolific of all Pickling Cu- 

 cumbers, and is certain to become a stand- 

 ard sort. While primaril}^ a pickling varie- 

 ty, it is also most useful for slicing, the 

 cucumbers, when fully matured, being of 

 g'ood size and very tender and crisp. Per 

 pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., Vi lb. 35 cts., lb.

The Emerald Cucumber 



THE EMERALD is a 



s^edling of the White Spine and 

 retains everj^ good point in the 

 best strains of White Spine, and 

 possesses that rich dark green col- 

 or which has been so long sought 

 for. It is strictly an evergreen, 

 retaining its color until fully ripe. 

 On sight, its distinct dark green 

 and spineless skin attracts- the at- 

 tention and admiration of every- 

 one interested. Its fruit sets ear- 

 ly, and its vigorous vines abound 

 in long, straight, handsome fruits 

 of most desirable qualities. The 

 flesli being peculiarly crisp 

 and tender, and the flavor deli, 

 cate, highly recommend it as a 

 slicer. The young fruit being dark 

 green, straight and tender, makes 

 an excellent pickle. Price per 

 pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., ^4 lb. 50 

 cts., lb. $1.50.
