34 lb. of seed will plant about 300 hills or sow 200 ft. of row. It requires about 2 lbs. of seed per acre. 
Cucumber Seed for 1935 
The seed crop of cucumbers is very short and the demand will exceed the supply of good seed 
in 1935. There will undoubtedly be a lot of inferior stocks offered for sale. You can depend on 
getting the same high grade stocks of cucumber seed which we have supplied our customers in 
the past. 
Harris’ Perfection Cucumbers—grown by

Harris’ Perfection Cucumber 
The Finest Long Green Variety 
This is undoubtedly the best long green 
cucumber for market and shipping. We have 
been breeding this cucumber for a good many 
years and have now so perfected it that the fruit 
is more uniform in shape, size and color than any 
other kind we know. Because of its evenness in 
size and handsome deep green color Harris’ Per¬ 
fection commands a premium over other varieties 
in market. 
The fruit is long, straight, smooth and hand¬ 
some. The color is deep green with small white 
rays on the blossom end. The cucumbers retain 
this deep green color for a long time after picking. 
It is a white spined variety. The fruit will aver¬ 
age over a foot long when matured and some 
reach 15 inches in length. 
This variety is well adapted for dill pickles 
as well as for general market. 
Oz. 30c; 34 lb. 85c; lb. $2.75; 10 lbs. $25.00. 
“Last year I raised some of the nicest Harris' Perfection 
cucumbers from your seed that I have ever seen. They were 
long, straight and very dark green." Fred G. Steele, Hudson, 
N. H. Mar. 21, 1934.
