TESTED, DEPENDABLE SEEDS 
Cucumbors 
CucUMBERS planted in rich loamy soil after danger of frost is past will give you best 
results. Fertilization with well-rotted manure will be beneficial. The seed may be 
planted in hills or drill rows about four feet apart, and covered with one inch of soil. 
Three pounds will plant a drilled acre. If planted in hills, use eight to ten seed to the 
hill, and when the plants have four or five leaves, thin out, leaving the three or four 
strongest plants to the hill. Frequent cultivations are desirable. Keep the cucumbers 
picked off as they reach the desired size in order that more fruit will set on, increasing 
vour yield. Bordeaux mixture is used as a spray for many foliage diseases. Several 
lifferent dusts are on the market for controlling the striped cucumber beetle._ 
Straight-8 
THE STRAIGHT-8 CUCUMBER, an “All America’ winner in 1935, is an outstanding variety. This 
white spine is one of the finest slicing cucumbers on the market. It is deep green in color, free 
from striping, symmetrical in shape, with well rounded ends. The Straight-8 is about two inches 
in diameter and eight inches in length. The vines are vigorous and very productive. We believe 
this variety to be one of the best that we offer.

THE TAXPAYER CUCUMBER 
r 
Taxpayer 
THE TAXPAYER can be described as an improved Early Fortune, since it has many of the char- 
acteristics that made the Early Fortune one of the leading cucumbers for many years. It is early 
in maturing, is an excellent shipper, and is mild in flavor. The Taxpayer is an improvement over 
the Early Fortune in its coloring, which is an attractive dark green, carried around the tip of the 
fruit. It does not have the light striping that characterized the Early Fortune. The fruit is uni- 
formly eight to nine inches in length. We suggest that you try the Taxpayer. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 20c; 1% pound, 65¢; V2 pound, $1.20; 1 pound, $2.00;
