CUCUMBERS—Continued 
438 Straight Eight 
An Early Prolific Long White Spine 
Has become very popular among growers be- 
cause of the large early yield of fine straight 
cucumbers. Straight Eight produces heavy crops 
at a time when the other kinds are only just 
beginning to bear. The vines continue to produce 
heavily throughout the season. 
When ready for market the cucumbers are 8 
to 9 inches long, straight, smooth and blunt 
ended. The color is medium green with green 
rays at the blossom end. We can recommend 
Straight Eight for a money making crop. See 
prices below.

is long, slender, and deep green, almost entirely 
solid, having very few seeds. The vines;are
