PICKLING VARIETIES 
416 GREEN THUMB PICKLE. (new). White-Spine Double Yield. 
52 days. An extraordinary new dark green vickle, developed from a 
single white-spined fruit we found in our famous Double Yield. Just as 
early and productive, it has the same smooth round shape with blunt 
ends and even better color. Its great advantage is that when they get 
larger, as for dills or early slicers, they do not turn yellowish but re- 
main a bright rich green, attractive and fresh-looking. See photo and 
description on page 5. 
Pkt. 15c; Oz. 40c; 14 Lb. $1.10; 14 Lb. $1.75; Lb. $3.25. 
418 HARRIS’ DOUBLE YIELD. the Most Prolific Pickle. 
52 days. Developed and grown entirely by us, Double Yield is famous 
for its earliness and its enormous production of excellent pickles. 
The fruit are of medium length, very straight with blunt ends and 
good green color, perfect for both small and dill pickles. When large 
enough for slicing, they have thick crisp flesh of delightful flavor. 
Keep the vines picked and Double Yield will continue to produce at 
an astonishing rate. Small pickles grow in clusters like the fingers of 
your hand and slicers are ready extremely early. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 35ce; 14 Lb. 90c; 14 Lb. $1.50; Lb. $2.75. 
448 YORKSTATE PICKLING. Successful Resistant Type. 
56 days. Another of the fine mosaic-resistant varieties developed by 
Dr. Munger at Cornell, Yorkstate is a pickle of the finest type that 
will produce real crops even where mosaic is most serious. The vines 
are large and vigorous, producing heavily over a long period. An ex- 
cellent yielder, it is similar to National Pickle in general type but ripens 
a few days later and is slightly more tapered and warted. It has 
proved an excellent type for some pickle-packers and we can highly 
recommend it. Pkt. 15c; Oz. 35ce; 14 Lb. 95c; 14 Lb. $1.55; Lb. $2.75.

Ohio MR 17 Yorkstate Pickling 
Both are excellent mosaic-resistant types 
“WHITE SPINE” and ‘BLACK SPINE” refer to the small prickly 
bristles on cucumbers. The slicers are nearly all white spine 
and hold their dark green color for a long time. Most pickling 
types and China are black-spined and these get yellow quickly 
if allowed to mature past the market stage. 
442 WEST INDIA GHERKIN. 58 days. An entirely distinct type producing 
great quantities of very tiny, prickly fruit, which make excellent 
small pickles. The fruits are short, rounded in shape and covered with 
little sharp spines. Much smaller than the regular pickling types.

grown that every garden should have a short row of this valuable 
herb which is used to make “‘Dill Pickles.’’ The green leaves are also 
excellent for flavoring. Pkt. 10¢; Oz. 25e; 144 Lb. 60c; Lb. $1.25.

FOR GREENHOUSE GROWING 
425 IRONDEQUOIT HOTHOUSE This famous hothouse cucumber 
is the best to raise under glass. The fruit is long, slender, deep 
green and nearly perfectly solid, with very few seeds. The vines

us by a leading hothouse cucumber grower in Irondequoit.

500 seeds, $3.25; 1000 seeds, $5.50. 
Harris’ Double Yield—Tremendous early crops of the finest pickles. 
435 OHIO MR 17. New Mosaic Resistant Pickle. 
56 days. Like Yorkstate, Ohio MR 17 is not only highly resistant to 
mosaic, but is a pickle of excellent type and yield. It will be preferred 
by growers who want a slightly longer slimmer shape. 
Developed with the assistance of one of the largest pickle compan- 
ies, Ohio MR 17 is already widely used in pickle sections. The fruit 
are somewhat smoother, longer and more slender than Yorkstate with 
well-rounded ends and medium green color. In our tests, this has been 
slightly darker, more uniform and attractive than Yorkstate but both 
are fine varieties of great value. Vines large-leaved, strong and 
healthy. Pkt. 15¢; Oz. 35c; 44 Lb. 95c; 14 Lb. $1.55; Lb. $2.75. 
428 LEMON. 65 days. A 
real cucumber that grows 
about the size and color of 
a large lemon. The flesh 
is white and has a remark- 
able sweet flavor, quite 
different from other cu- 
cumbers and very delicious. 
Highly esteemed both 
for slicing and pickling, 
they are ripe when first 
starting to turn yellow, 
but may be used either 
green or ripe. Grown like 
other cucumbers. 
Pkt.15c; 4% Oz. 35c; Oz.60c. 
For biggest yields, pick cukes 
and pickles often. Every other 
day is not too much. 
Lemon

early in the spring. The seed is sown in the spring or summer and the 
leaves will be ready to eat the following spring. 
453 LARGE THICK-LEAVED. Our special strain has deeply cut leaves and 
white ribs, grows vigorously and makes good hearts. The leaves are 
thick and dark green and of excellent quality. Very early, adapted for
