‘been made in its development and consistently in its maintenance to show a higher vigor. We

A good variety. PER LB: 80¢

MAGNOLIA is, in our opinion, a promising newer black 
spine pickle variety. Especially developed for use’ 
in the Southern States, it is noticeably prolific, - 
a’ fast starter, and matures.a crop of quite uniform, 
blocky, deep green pickles with a. medium—-smal) seed 
cavity, medium warts and of very nice appearance.
