Letherman’s Wondergreen 
<*>LETH ER MAN’S WONDERGREEN. This wonderful new 
cucumber is most uniform in shape, size and deep 
green color, ranging from 10 to 11 inches in length. 
Its crisp, solid flesh of deliciously cool, refreshing 
flavor make it most desirable for slicing. In the 
slicing stage it shows no trace whatever of white 
stripes at the blossom end, nor any light green color. 
It is of the darkest green imaginable, and holds this 
beautiful dark green color for an exceptionally long 
time after being picked, which, together with its 
solidity and size, makes it an admirable variety for 
shipping. For forcing under glass it is fine. For the 
Market Gardener who wants a money maker and the
