Harris’ Perfection Cucumbers 
The dark color and attractive appearance brings 
top prices on the market. 
The fruit is straight, smooth and 
handsome, deep green in color with 
small white rays at the blossom end. It 
retains this deep green color for a long 
time after picking. The cucumbers will 
average well over eight inches long 
when ready for market and are just the 
right thickness. 
Since we introduced Harris’ Perfec¬ 
tion in 1916, the stock has been under 
our entire control and we have worked 
constantly to improve the type, yield 
and uniformity. Even though there have 
been several very fine varieties of this 
type introduced in the past few years, 
many of our customers tell us they pre¬ 
fer Harris’ Perfection because it com¬ 
mands a premium over other kinds. 
This variety is adapted for dill 
pickles as well as for general market. 
See prices below.
