For Pickling, Slicing 
and Relish 
Clark’s Special—The New Favorite 
They like rich soil, but they do fairly well most anywhere. Plant 
liberally because the bugs sometimes take some of the seedlings. (See 
Bug Dust on page 56.) Don’t crowd cucumbers, give them plenty 
of room. Mhke the hills at least 4x6 feet and more room if you have 
it. Plant when the ground is warm and figure about 3 dozen hills to a 
packet of seed or 100 1 hills to the ounce. For late pickles, plant in 
June.

Eggplant should be better known. 
People who have eaten it always want 
more. I suggest that you try some this 
year. Tend them just as you would 
peppers. This picture is the Black 
Beauty, which I think is the best of all. 
656 BLACK BEAUTY. Grows 5 
to 6 “eggs” to the plant, which 
will average almost as big as a 
quart cup. The color is a rich 
purplish-black, the flavor is un¬ 
usually fine and they can be used 
in many ways. Price: Pkt. 10c; 
oz. 35c. 
KOHLRABI 
216 WHITE VIENNA. A number 
of the cabbage family, with an 
edible turnip-like bulb which 
grows above the ground. Some 
say it is a cross between tur¬ 
nips and cabbage. I say it is as 
good or better than either one. 
Grow as you would cabbage. 
Price: Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c.
