of the skin is rich dark green, the texture of the pure white flesh 
is firm and crisp and the seed cavity is very small. The plants 
grow vigorously and the fruits are set very freely all along the 
vines. One of its best features is its resistance to disease. In

Davis’ Perfect (Perfected Strain) 
With the exception of the New English Hybrid White Spine, our strain of Davis’ Perfect is the most beautiful Cu¬ 
cumber grown. By using our Perfected Strain a crop can be produced outdoors which cannot be distinguished from 
greenhouse stock. Fruits 8 to 10 inches long; rich, dark green. It has very few seeds, and the few that are in it 
when in' slicing condition are so very small and tender they are unnoticeable. It loads its vines so heavily that it 
seems impossible for them to mature the fruit. Under glass it is the most productive variety, and for outdoor grow¬ 
ing they yield even better than in the greenhouse. For quality it is unsurpassed. Ready for the market in 60 to 65 
days. Pkt., 8c; oz., 15c; % lb., 40c; lb., $1.25; 2 lbs., $2.25; 5 lbs., $5.30; 10 lbs., $10.00, postpaid.

This is a remarkable new long green cucumber from China with fruits from 20 inches to 2 feet in length, and 
only 2 to 3 inches in diameter. The skin is deep green and nearly smooth, the spines being few and small. There 
is nothing equal to China Long for crispness except possibly some of the hothouse varieties; flesh solid and of the 
very best quality for slicing. The nearest seedless of any variety we have ever tried. Nearly as early as the 
shorter varieties; vines strong, vigorous, healthy and productive. A most desirable variety for the home garden, 
and is sure to be a popular market sort as soon as it becomes better known. Pkt., 10c; 3 pkts., 25c; oz., 45c; 
Vi lb., $1.40; lb., $4.75, postpaid.
