 bers, of the very best form and quality, and has

 Uniform shape and appearance; its enormous pro- 

 ductive ability makes this variety a favorite one.

257 Maule's Improved Long Green 



Very Popiilar Variety 



This fine cucumber grows from 12 to 16 inches or 

 more in length, aud is of superior quality. The 

 young fruits are very largely used for pickling, and 

 it is a standard sort for that purpose. Full sized 

 cucumbers are in high favor for making the so- 

 called sweet pickles. Vines are strong growers, and 

 the fruit is always produced in great abundance, 

 making it one of the most productive varieties. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 15 cents; 

 quarter pound, 50 cts.; pound, $1.75, postpaid. 



263 Early Green Cluster 



Bears in Twos and Threes 



This is a short, pale green variety, maturing early. 

 It is rather prickly and contains few seeds. The 

 fruit is borne in clusters near the root; it is a favorite 

 for pickling on account of its great productiveness. 



Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 

 quarter pound, 30 cts.; pound, $1.00, postpaid. 



252 Maule's Early White Spine 



The Finest for Slicing 



An extra fine improved type of the best and 

 most widely grown variety in America. It is 

 unsurpassed as a table and market sort, and is 

 also used for pickling. No other kind exceeds 

 it in productiveness, and it is equally good for 

 forcing under glass or growth in the open air. 

 We have a record of where a single hill of three 

 vines produced over 500 cucumbers during the 

 season. The fruit is from 5 to 7 inches long and 

 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Color, a beautiful 

 dark green. This illustration shows most ac- 

 curately the fine shape this cucumber attains.
