The "Henderson” Perfected White Spine Cucumber

Cucumber perfection has been attained in this grand improve¬ 
ment in the White Spine famil)'. It is an early, prolific and 
continuous producer of uniformly large and symmetrical fruits

of most refreshing and delightful flavor. The vines are vigorous, 
quite healthy, mildew-proof, maintaining their luxuriance and 
bearing from the earliest to the latest season. Either for the 
home ganlen or for market this variety is without a peer, {See

HENDERSON'S COOL AND CRISP CUCUMBER 
Extra Early 
Exceedingly Prolific :: Bears the Whole Season 
An extra early, exceedingly prolific and continuous- 
bearing variety; a very distinct and attractive selection 
of the White Spine class; the shape is unique, rather 
longer than most sorts, tapering at each end, slightly 
ridged throughout, with but few “knobs.” 
The color is beautiful dark green, shading off a 
little paler toward blossom end. It is one of the 
best Cucumbers for slicing and general use, 
the flesh being remarkably firm and crisp; 
it also yields a good number of fruits 
for pickling, and holds its crop for an 
unusually long period. (See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 50c. }4 
lb., $1.50 lb. 
”My Cool and Crisp Cucumbers were 
excellent. 1 never had such good results 
before. ” 
II. ALLERTON, Derby Line, Vt. 
"Your Cool and Crisp Cucumber is a 
very superior variety, early, and bears the 
whole season. I never saw such a bearer. ” 
JAMES. L. BALMER, 
Marysville, Mich.
