 from whence every- 

 thing is novel. Dis- 

 tinctive sort, similar 

 to Japanese climb- 

 ing, the foliage soft 

 and velvety, and 

 in shape resembling 

 the leaf of a Canta- 

 loupe. It is a vigor- 

 ous grower and pro- 

 ductive of fruit of 

 medium length, even 

 diameter throughout 

 the entire length. 

 A very desirable va- 

 riety, when small, 

 either for salting or 

 pickling, or for slic- 

 ing when of larger de- 

 velopment.

TURKEY LONG GREEN, 8o DAYS TO REACH EDIBLE SIZE.— Not so abundant a bearer 

 as the preceding sorts, though recommended to all who put up their own pickles; fruit 

 LONG and slim; only surpassed in quality by Landreths' First 



EMERALD — Decidedly an acquisition because of its deep green color, which it retains 

 unchanged for a week after picking, thus fitting it for shipping long distances. In size 

 it is larger and slimmer than White Spine. The fruit is cylindrical, smooth, free from 

 warts, and bears brown spines •
