Burrell’s Earliest of All is our own introduction and we have sold 
more pounds of this variety than any other we grow. Fruits dark 
green, uniform, square ended; about 7 inches long as a slicer. Flesh 
pearly white and crisp. Gained its popularity with shippers be- 
cause of earliness and quality. Ordinary pickling varieties of the 
black spine type are often undesirable for use in the South because 
the pickles are inclined to turn red. Burrell’s Earliest of All never 
turns red and has now become the most popular variety for pickling 
in the South.
