See page 13. 
An Overgrown DARK GREEN SIJCKR but still a dark green 
CULTURE—Plant when the ground is warm. Figure 
about three dozen hills to a packet of seed or 100 hills to 
the ounce. For late pickles, plant in late June. 
364—DARK GREEN SLICER. As a slicer it is just 
about as good as you can get them for home use. And a 
splendid market and shipping variety, too. A dark green 
and holds its color well. Medium sized, straight and rath¬ 
er blunt ended. It will grow fewer “nubbins” than most 
varieties. Early and bears well. Price. Pkt. 100; oz. 200; 
% lb. 650. 
358—EVERBEARING. Don’t expect too much of this 
variety just because it has a good name. We didn’t name 
it. Short and stubby but will do for early pickles. Believe 
you will like some of our other picklers better. CROP 
FAILURE. 353—EARLY FOR- 
TUNE. A nice, 
smooth, uniform 
shaped slicing cu¬ 
cumber. Medium size 
early as a slicer. 
Ends inclined to 
taper. Flesh firm 
and crisp. Dark 
green and holds its 
color well. One of 
the best. Price, Pkt. 
EARLY FORTUNE 100; oz. 200; !4 lb. 
650. 
356_HEINZ’S PICKLE. Better for small pickles than 
anything else. Cylindrical in shape. Very robust in growth 
and more rust resistant than others. Keep it picked off 
and it will give you lots of nice pickles. Crop very short. 
Order early or we may be out. We suggest you make a 
second choice late in the season. Price, Pkt. 100; oz. 200; 
Vi lb. 650. 
352—NATIONAL 
PICKLE. They 
make fine crisp 
pickles, any size 
you want from 
small wee ones to 
dill size. They set 
on freely and con¬ 
tinue to bear if you 
keep them picked 
off and don’t 
tramp the vines. I believe the shape is just what most 
of you like, straight, blunt ended and round. A good 
dark green color. A row or two across the garden ought 
to furnish you lots of pickles. Price, Pkt. 100; oz. 200; 
Vi lb. 650.

failure.

361 —IMPROVED LONG 
GREEN. If you want a long, dark 
green slicer here it is. Used by some

enough to be real good for that.

slender slicer. Has few seeds. Price
