Cucumbers 
On no seed can you gain more by buying 
our way than you can on Cucumber and 
other vine plants. You gain almost ten 
times as much by buying by the ounce and 
pound as by the old style package. There 
is a secret in keeping this seed so it will 
germinate and gain from 6 to 10 days in 
growing maturity; and a trial of our seed 
side by side with any other seed will con- 
vince you. 
Prices on all Cucumbers: %4 oz., 10c; 
1 oz., 25c; 1%4 1b., 75c; 1 lb., $2.50. 
ARLINGTON WHITE SPINE. One of the 
most profitable of the white spines. It is 
the leading variety in many eastern 
markets. 
CHICAGO PICKLING. A big favorite at 
pickling works, grows the fruits in 
bunches, a regular mass of blooms and 
pickles when gathered daily. 
A AND C. Sixty days. The fruits grow 
about 10 in. in length and 2% in. thick, 
well rounded at the ends and dark green 
throughout, which color is held after 
picking much longer than most others. 
COLORADO CUCUMBER. (New.) The 
Colorado averages 10 to 12 inches in 
length, is very slender and well formed, 
and very dark green. It is very early 
and the best bearing of all slender Cu- 
cumbers. 
DAVIS PERFECT. This is King of Cu- 
cumbers, largest, a heavy bearer of per- 
fect salable fruit, becoming known 
everywhere and a general favorite. 
EARLY FORTUNE. Rich dark green 
color, 7 to 8 inches long when left for 
slicing, good shipper and market sort, 
few seeds and quality as good for 
pickles as for slicing. Very resistant to 
disease. One of the best sorts. 
EARLY WHITE SPINE. A good crisp one, 
early to mature. A general favorite as 
an early variety, widely planted for 
pickling factories, ete. 
FORDHOOK FAMOUS. Strong grower 
and very productive, does not blight; 
makes good pickles; grows from 12 to 15 
inches; very tender and crisp, practi- 
cally spineless. 
LONDON LONG GREEN. This is by far 
the best long green variety. 12 to 16 
inches long, of a superior quality. The 
young fruit is best for pickling and 
when matured is fine for sweet pickles; 
a good slicer. 
VAUGHAN or LONGFELLOW. This is as 
much an advance over the Davis Perfect 
variety as the ‘‘Davis’’ was over the old 
Extra Long White Spine sorts. Com- 
pared to the other Long White Spine 
varieties it is much darker in color, 
more uniform in shape and size, thinner 
and more prolific. It is the ideal Ameri- 
ean forcing variety, as well as an out- 
door sort. Our customers who grow it 
have greenhouse Cucumbers raised out- 
doors. J. C. Robinson of Waterloo, Ne- 
braska, writes: ‘We have tried the 
Vaughan Cucumber for 2 years in our 
trials. It certainly will displace most 
other kinds, in our opinion. 
Cress 
CURLED or PEPPERGRASS CRESS. This 
small salad is much used with lettuce to 
the flavor of which its warm, pungent 
taste makes a most agreeable addition. 
1/5 0z., 5c. 
Chicory 
Resembles parsnips, root when dried 
makes a good substitute for coffee, or 
when mixed adds a mild pleasant flavor. 
14 0Z., 20c. 
Swiss Chard 
Prices on Swiss Chard: 14 0z., 10c; 1 02.,

LUSCIOUS. This variety has light green 
leaf, crumpled much like Savoy cabbage. 
The rib is not quite as broad in some 
varieties. 
FORDHOOK GIANT. A superior variety 
of Chard with dark green crumpled 
leaves; the rib is 21% inches broad. It is 
a wonderful market and home sort. 
Eggplant 
BLACK BEAUTY. Early, large and pro- 
ductive, deep color and gives general 
satisfaction. Easy to grow 1/6 oz., 10c; 
14 0Z., 15c; 1 oz., 40c; %4 1b., $1.50. 
Celery 
Nothing is harder to please a customer 
with than Celery seed. To overcome this 
we are aiming to bring each variety to a 
perfect standard as our other “Guaranteed 
Seed,” and to those who have never used 
our seeds, we can only ask a trial on our 
Celery seeds and let your future seed order 
be governed by the results. 
GIANT PASCAL. One of the best on the 
market. It produces perfect branched 
stalks; “2 “fit. lone; crisp and) thick, 
blanches early and easily, fine keeper 
one shipper. 4 02z., 15¢; 1 0z., 45c; %4 lh., 
1.75.

self-blanching variety, easily marketed 
and a great keeper, of fine quality and 
has just enough of the nutty flavor 
that makes Celery popular for flavoring 
and eating. %4 0z., 20c; 14 0z., 30c; 1 oz., 
50c; %4 1b., $2.00.
