Longfellow Cucumber 
CUCUMBERS 
Early Fortune 
An exceedingly prolific and attractive dark green, 
white-spined variety. The fruits are cylindrical or 
slightly tapered at the ends, and average 9 inches in 
length with a 21-inch diameter. They retain their 
dark green color for a long time after picking and do 
not fade when shipped a long distance. The seed cavity 
is small and the white flesh is firm and crisp, with very 
few seeds, making it an excellent sort for slicing. It is 
the finest type of the early-maturing sorts and has 
become a general favorite with many growers. The 
vines are hardy and vigorous.

Davis’ Perfect 
This long, smooth, handsome, white-spine Cucumber 
is more extensively used than any other sort. The vines 
are very productive and the fruits are deep green, 
averaging 10 inches in length. They are medium early 
in maturing, and suitable for forcing or outdoor culture. 


The deep green fruits are very attractive and the clear 
white, crisp flesh is tender and of excellent flavor. It Is 
less affected by the hot sun than most sorts, and also 
remains in marketable condition for a longer period. 
Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 15 cts., 141b. 60 cts. 
Longfellow 
A beautiful, intense dark green sort, well adapted to 
greenhouse forcing, frame, or outdoor culture. It Is a 
large-fruited, main-crop Cucumber of perfect shape and 
exceptional attractiveness. The long, slender, straight, 
smooth fruits always command top price in the market. 
They measure 12 to 14 inches long, pack right, and 
remain in prime condition for a longer period than any 
other variety. The delicate-flavored, white flesh 1s very 
crisp and almost seedless. Healthy and vigorous vines, 
producing a heavy yield of fruits which, when grown 
outdoors and fully developed, are equal to greenhouse- 
grown varieties. We recommend it as an ideal type for 
both home and market garden. 
Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 18 cts., 14lb. 70 cts. 

Squash, Giant Summer Straightneck 
An improved strain which possesses all the good qualities of the Giant Summer Crookneck but is vastly superior 
to that variety on account of its fme, symmetrical form and thick, meaty neck. The straig! t fruits, measuring 18 to 
20 inches long, are intensely warted and of a pale lemon-yellow color when ready for marketing. A valuable sort 
for shipping because of its form, as it packs right, thus eliminating loss from Bile ve experienced with the Crook- 
neck variety.
