J'ORDHOOK "F ATVrOTTS. The finest flavored of all ; the handsomest and best long 

 ■ green Cucumber ; of the true White Spine type. Vines pro- 

 duce an enormous crop, being of unusually vigorous growth. Perfectly smooth and very dark green ; 

 <he handsome fruits measure 12 to 18 inches long ; they are always straight, never turn yellow and 

 are e.xtra solid. The beautiful white flesh is firm, crisp and of most delicious flavor. The flesh seems 

 to be all there is of the Cucumber, as the seed space is extremely small. The new " Fordhook 



Famous " is so absolutely unequaled that it is sure to 

 supersede soon all other types of the popular Long 

 Green Cucumber. Gardeners everywhere will want 

 this most handsome of all table Cucumbers, both be- 

 cause they will bring an extra price on market and are 

 of the White Spine type (long remaining deep green), 

 and because the vigorous vines are so very productive.
