Why not have the very best crops? Why be satisfied with anything less? Our strain of Improved Long Green Cucumbers 
is so very much better and yields so many more perfectly wonderful Cucumbers than any other strain we have ever seen, that 
we just must enthusiastically urge you to include it among your crops for this year. Look! Just see how they “pick” perfect 
Cucumbers from each plant and every plant just full of them. 
DOWN! DOWN!! DOWN!!! Go our prices on Cucumbers, 
thanks to a good big crop of seed. 
HOW TO GROW CUCUMBERS.—They want a rich, warm, well- 
worked soil. Plant in hills about 4 feet apart each way. Plant 8 to 10 
seeds in each hill. We highly recommend using Hotkaps on every hill of Cucumbers. They protect from cold, allowing earlier 
planting, and also from insects; keep the soil mellow, no crusting, conserve the moisture. They are like miniature “Hothouses,” 
see index. When the plants are up strong, thin out, leaving four of the strongest ones in each hill. For early crop, plant as soon 
as the weather is settled and soil is warm during May. By starting plants under glass or in pots, they will have a good start and 
can be set out in May. For pickles, for late use, and for canning, plant in June. Other plantings may be continued until July 15. 
Keep gathering the Cucumbers; do not allow any to ripen, or it will stop the vines from continuing to bear.* Spray the plants from 
the very beginning with Ever Green or some other good insecticide; it kills the bugs. One ounce will plant 50 hills; 2 pounds 
to the acre. The figures give the number of days from planting to picking.
