'R. DAVIS, HiC originator of this Cucumber, describes it as follows: — As a forcing 

 Cucumber the Davis' forcing " has no equal, its excellent eating qualities, shape and 

 productiveness place it without a rival. To obtain the be^ results for forcing under 

 glass the plants should not: be as close together as other forcing strains. It is a very fa^ grower 

 and if planted too close will not do as well Mr. Davis places his plants about five feet apart. 

 As a Cucumber for growing outside it has proven to be a big money maker. Hundreds of 

 bushels of the oiit-aoor produd v/ere shipped to Chicago and other markets the pa^ season, 

 which sold for hot-house Cucumbers. 



A large Commission Merchant who handled the Davis' Perfect could sell no other 

 Cucumbers while he had these to offer. It is an extremely shy seeder and on this account is 

 preferable for table use.
