Benning Bush Scalloped Squash 



EARLIER THAN THE WHITE BUSH, VERY LIGHT SHADE OF GREEN, 

 BUSH HABIT, VERY PRODUCTIVE AND ATTRACTIVE 



APPEARANCE 



Benning Bush Scalloped Squash. 



The improvement of the Benning Bush Squash o^er the old sort, is quite distinct, in that it is 

 earlier and has a very beautiful light shade of green color, in place of the creamy white, which the 

 older sort has. 



The flesh is rich, dry, and particularly fine; medium in size; vine of bush habit; and exceed- 

 ingly productive. 



Its superiority, is so great over the old Early White Bush Squash variety, that I do not hesi- 

 tate to say that if the Benning type is tried once, your future orders will always be for the new 

 Benning sort. Price, pkt., 5c.; oz., lOc; ^4 lb., 25c.; pound, 75c. 



New Evergreen Cucumber 



Earlier than the Improved Arlington White Spine and a Heavier Cropper. 

 Truckers who Desire an Early Cucumber will Find this 

 New Variety Very Profitable. 



Earlier than the Improved Arlington White Spine and a heavier cropper. Truckers who de- 

 sire an early Cucumber will find in this new variety a money-maker. It is one of the most vig- 

 orous, strong, and robust growers. Fruits are even size, very handsome shape, measuring about 8 

 to 9 inches in length, and are of a dark green color. The fruits are close to the hill, and are 

 excellent for slicing. Our Southern friends will find it admirably adapted^ for their wants. This 

 cucumber can be used under glass as well as for growing out of doors. Claimed to cut from thirt-y 

 to fifty per cent more cucumbers from the vines of this variety than any other. Pkt., 5c.; oz., lOc; 

 ^ lb., 25c.; lb., 75c.
