The “Henderson” Perfected White Spine Cucumber 
A' 
- THE FINEST FOR SLICING 
C ucumber perfection has been attained in this grand improve¬ 
ment in the White Spine family. It is an early, prolific and 
continuous producer of uniformly large and syimnetrical fruits 
of an intensely rich, deep green color, faintly marked with light 
yellowish shading towards the tip. It runs very close to type, 
bearing practically no misshapen fruit or culls. It is the ideal for 
slicing—flesh being compact, fine-grained, sparkling white and of 
most refreshing and delightful flavor. The vines are vigorous, quite 
healthy, mildew-proof, maintaining their fresh luxuriance and bear¬ 
ing from the earliest to the latest season. Either for the home 
garden or for market this variety is without a peer. (See cut.) Price 
10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 45c. ] lb., $1.‘40 lb. 
Henderson’s Cool and Crisp Cucumber 
Extra Early! Exceedingly Prolific! Bears the whole Season! 
N extra early, i exceedingly prolific and 
continuous-bearing variety ; a very dis¬ 
tinct 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 few but large 
“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 ai 
unusually long period. Price, 10c. pkt., 16c 
oz., 40c. i lb., $1.25 lb. 
“7 must say a few words in regard to your Cool one 
Crisp Cucumber. It is a very superior variety. I sfarld 
the seeds in a cold frame, and had them early , and ihfi 
continued to bear the whole season until frost killed thevina 
I never saw such a bearer, and, considering the dry season, \ 
astonished everybody.’* 
JAS. L. BALMER, Marysville, Mich. 
“7 planted your Cool and Crisp Cucumber on the sam 
day as White Spine, gave them the sarne treatment, an 
picked them 9 days ahead of the White Spine. 1 foar* 
them wonderfully qrrolific, of rich green color, crisp ani 
good-flavored. I can recommend it as a good cucumber.

**Your Henderson Cucumber was grand. I have grown Cucumbers for 
SO years and never saw its equal. The deep color, large size and even 
shape attract attention. It is also very prolific.**
