,. Our stocks are bred for prolific yields and freedom 
Pickling Varieties from nubs and crooks. Earliest of All is a favorite 
with southern picklers. It withstands the heat well, 
and does not turn yellow; produces very satisfactory small pickles, 
and as a dill is crisp and brittle; free from bloaters. National Pickling: 
is second to none in its ability to produce high quality pickles not 
inclined to taper rapidly to the blossom end. We have a special strain 
of this and after inspecting our crops, one of the largest pickle packers 
made the observation that this was certainly a “Pickle Man’s Dream,” 
and the best variety for pickling use in the northern states. Burrell’s 
Pickling is one of the most abundant yielders. It is a selection from 
Chicago Pickling and is excellent for those wishing a long, slender 
pickle. Snow’s Pickling is slightly shorter than National and tapers 
more to the blossom end. Boston Pickling is a good performer in all 
sections for either small or large pickles and we recommend its use 
where there is any uncertainty as to the pickling variety you wish. 
We have a new stock of Early Cluster which we recommend to those 
requiring a blocky appearing pickle with very blunt, rounded ends. 
Length of this is the same as Na¬ 
tional, but heavier. We invite cor¬ 
respondence from pickle packers as 
we specialize in the production of 
seed for this trade.

Rurr^lPc PirHinn 55 day* 3 - We 
DUrreil S riCKIing developed this 
sort from the Chicago Pickling with 
the idea of producing an extra early 
prolific sort that would be straight, 
slender, square ended and free from 
nubbiness and offer it as what we 
believe to be the best medium long 
type pickling sort yet introduced. 
Fruits are so cylindrical that lobes 
are barely distinguishable even 
when fully matured. Size about the 
same in diameter as Boston Pick¬ 
ling, but averages one inch longer, 
an abundant yielder. Black spined.
