Harris’ Perfection—The Grandest Long Green White Spine 
See photo on back cover 
If you want the finest long white spine cucumbers, grow Harris’ Perfection. 
The fruit is straight, smooth and handsome, deep green in color with small white rays at the 
blossom end, and retains its 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’ Perfection in 1916, we have kept the stock under our entire 
control, working 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 
still prefer Harris’ Perfection because it commands a premium over other kinds. 
This variety is adapted for dill pickles as well as for general market. See prices below.
