A Single Plant of HASTINGS’ Everbearing Cncnmber 
Our Everbearing Cucumber proved 
very useful on account of its everbearing character—notice habit of 
growth in illustration. The first cucumbers are ready very early; then 
the vines continue to flower and produce fruit continually until killed 
by frost, whether the ripe cucumbers are picked off or riot, differing 
in this respect from all sorts in cultivation. A single vine will exhibit 
at the same time cucumbers in every stage of growth; the small ones 
being perfect in shape, of a fine green color, and just the right size for 
pickling. Pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 10 cts.; lb., 30cts.; lb., $1.00. 
This variety is one to grow for pickling 
A. purposes only. While they can be used 
when full grown for slicing, yet it is pre-eminently a pickling variety 
over the country. Its small size, dark green color and Immense pro¬ 
ductiveness make It a favorite for that purpose. Pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 10 
cts.; 1 b., 30 cts.; lb., $1.00; postpaid.
