PICKLING VARIETIES 
Our stocks are bred for prolific yields and freedom from nubs _ and 
crooks. Earliest of All is a favorite with southern picklers. National 
Pickling is second to none in its ability to produce high quality pickles 
not inclined to taper rapidly to the blossom end. We hove a special strain 
of this and after inspecting our crops, one of the largest pickle packers 
made the observation, that this was certainly a "Pickle Man's Dream." and 
the best variety for pickling use in the northern states. Burrell's Picklmg 
is one of the most abundant yielders. It is a selection from Chicago Pickling 
and is excellent for those wishing a long, slender pickle. Snow's Pickling 
is slightly shorter than National and tapers more to the blossom end. 
Boston Pickling is a good performer in all sections for either small^ or 
large pickles and we recommend its use where there is any uncertainty 
as to the pickling variety you wish. We have a new stock of Early Cluster 
which we recommend to those requiring a blocky appearing pickle with 
very blunt, rounded ends. We invite 
correspondence from pickle packers as 
we specialize in the production of seed 
for this trade.

' - ■ ' ■" " " 28.) A splendid 
sort for small bottle pickles, also large 
sours and dills. Fruits about the same 
diameter as National, but slightly longer, 
being a new refined selection and should 
not be confused with ordinary stocks of 
Boston Pickling. This new stock is be¬ 
coming a favorite with eastern picklers. 
Fruits dark green, very firm, black 
spined, 6 to 6inches long, 2)^ inches

Burrell's Pickling f e f- 
'• ' ' oped this 
sort from the Chicago Pickling with the 
idea of producing an extra early prolific 
sort that would be straight, slender, 
square ended and free from nubbiness 
and offer it as what we believe to be the 
best medium long type pickling sort yet 
introduced. Fruits are so cylindrical that 
lobes are barely distinguishable even 
when fully matured. Size about the 
same in diameter as Boston Pickling, but 
averages one inch longer, an abundant 
yielder. Black spined.
