MARKETER CUCUMBERS 
400 A & C Cucumber 
The Leading Variety for Market 
The long slender shape and handsome dark green 
color have made this one of the most popular 
cucumbers grown today. They are very deep 
green over the entire fruit, with only indistinct 
blossom end rays, and they hold their color well. 
The cucumbers are 8 to 9 inches long, beauti- 
fully proportioned, smooth and dark green, and 
make a very fancy pack. The vines are healthy 
and produce large crops of the finest fruit. Our 
strain is outstanding for uniformly fine shape 
and color, and we recommend it highly. See 
prices on next page. 
407 Cubit (New) 
This is a smooth cylindrical cucumber with 
bluntly rounded ends like Straight Eight but 
with the deep color of A. & C. 
The shiny dark green color covers the entire 
fruit, leaving only very indistinct rays at the 
blossom end. It has an exceptionally small 
seed cavity and the flesh is smooth, crisp and 
very thick. It will hold its firm fresh-looking 
appearance for a long time. 
Under favorable conditions, Cubit produces 
an abundance of very handsome cucumbers— 
smooth, straight and round in shape. See prices 
on next page. 
418 Harris’ Double Yield 
Early—The Best for Pickles 
We are proud to say that our new improved 
strain of this famous variety is better than ever 
before. The yields are even greater and the 
perfect shape makes it ideal for small pickles. 
The cucumbers are very straight with blunt 
ends, smooth, cylindrical, and medium deep 
green in color. The fine shape is carried on all 
sizes of fruit. (See photo.) 
If the pickles are kept picked off, the vines 
produce astonishing crops. Young cucumbers 
are often produced in clusters of 3 or 4 like the 
fingers of your hand. 
This is also the earliest variety we know and 
many growers use it for early slicers; it matures 
to slicing size two weeks earlier than other 
kinds. See prices on next page. 


430 Marketer 
New €xtra Fancy, Dark Green Slicing Type 
A very vigorous and prolific streamlined cu- 
cumber that is rapidly gaining popularity in the 
East. The smooth slender fruits are remarkably 
uniform and trim in appearance, and have the 
darkest green color of any variety, extending all 
the way down to the blossom end. They aver- 
age 7 to 8 inches long, straight and slightly 
tapered at the ends, and the flesh is very thick 
with a small seed cavity. 
The vines hold up well and give tremendous 
yields of these slim, elegant deep green fruit. 
One great advantage is that the fruit on the 
late pickings is just the same excellent type as 
on the first picking. If you want extra fancy 
slicers for market, grow Marketer. See prices on 
next page. 
420 Harris’ Perfection 
Long Green White Spine—Heavy Yielder 
The fruit is straight, smooth and handsome, 
deep green in color with small white rays at the 
blossom end, and retains its deep 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. 
We introduced this variety many years ago 
and it is still in great demand because of its 
heavy yield and fine appearance. It is well 
adapted for dill pickles as well as general market.

“Had fine results from your seeds last year. 
Your Double Yield cukes are misnamed. They 
should be at least triple or more.”
