Culture —-For very early Cucumbers, sow the first of April in a hotbed, upon pieces of sod or in small pots, so that they can be readily 
transplanted to the open ground (in rich soil) when danger of frost is over. For general crop plant, if the weather has become settled and 
warm, in hills about 4 ft. apart each way; thin out to 4 of the strongest plants to each hill. They succeed best in a warm, moist, rich, loamy 
soil. For succession sow until the middle of August. 
Meyer’s Green Pack Cucumber. This is a new variety which we 
have been working on for several years and are now ready to intro¬ 
duce same for 1935. This variety is dark green in color and is more 
so than any Cucumber we are acquainted with. There is a tendency 
for some of the early varieties to bleach out whereas our “Green 
Pack” has no tendency to do this at all. Further, it overcomes the 
disadvantages of some of the other cucumbers in that it is as early 
as any popular Cucumber and fully as prolific. The size is about 
10 to 11 in. long, does not produce nubbins to the extent that 
some others do, and all the way along is truly a remarkable variety.

in distance shipping and on account of its small seed pocket is

and with few white spines. This is probably the finest dark green,

EGGPLANT

and if the plants get the least chilled in the earlier stages of growth they seldom 
recover. Therefore repeated sowings are sometimes necessary. ZZ
