Letherman's Wondergreen 
<8> LETHERMAN'S WONDERGREEN. This wonderful 
new cucumber is most uniform in shape, size and 
deep green color, ranging from 10 to II inches in 
length. Its crisp, solid flesh of deliciously cool, 
refreshing flavor make it most desirable for slicing. 
In the slicing stage it shows no trace whatever of 
white stripes at the blossom end, nor any light 
green color. It is of the darkest green imaginable, 
and holds this beautiful dark green color for an 
exceptionally long time after being picked, which, 
together with its solidity and size, makes it an 
admirable variety for shipping. For forcing under 
glass it is fine. For the Market Gardener who 
wants a money maker and the Home Gardener 
who wants quality this is The Cucumber. PIct. lOc, 
oz. 20c, 1/4 lb. 60c, lb. $2.00. 
STRAIGHT EIGHT (Gold Medal 1935). A

COLORADO (Award of Merit 1935). Seed 
available for distribution for the first time from 
the 1935 crop. An early prolific long slender 
white spine variety, just the right size, shape and

intense dark green color is nearly as good as the 
greenhouse forcing varieties. Colorado will yield

most other varieties. Pkt. lOc, oz. 20c, lb. 60c,
