KLONDIKE 
WHITE SPINE 
(White Spine) 
Size: 9x3 inches 
Weight: 2 pounds 
Edible in 58 days 
Principle uses: Shipping and 
pickling 
It belongs to the Early Fortune 
class but is smaller. It is de¬ 
sirable for long distance ship¬ 
ping, as the deep green color 
holds extremely well. This 
strain has proven very popular 
for pickling purposes, and is 
the choice of the early white 
spines in this respect. The 
ends taper very slightly, the 
fruits are smooth and sym¬ 
metrical, and it is valuable on 
account of its earliness. 
LEMON 
Size: 3x2 inches 
Weight: pound 
Edible in 52 days 
Principle uses: Pickling and 
salads 
As its name indicates, it is a 
little similar in appearance to 
a lemon. Is used for pickling 
and in salads; or the seeds are 
removed and it is stuffed with 
relishes. It is entirely dis¬ 
tinct and should not be con¬ 
fused with Garden Lemon or 
Mango Melon. The true Lemon 
has seeds of about the same 
size as other cucumbers. The 
fruits are shaped similar to a 
lemon, but larger; white in 
color, with brown mottlings 
when mature.
