CUCUMBERS—Continued 
438 Straight Eight. An Early Prolific Long White Spine 
Has become popular primarily because 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. Straight Eight is often a money 
making crop in some sections. See prices below.
