Black Diamond Dark Green Tipped (it Stays 
Green) 
60 days. An early slicing sort, very popular in the south. Fruits 
rich, deep green and retain their color for a long time, white 
spined. Size and shape much the same as Burrell’s Earliest of All, 
but tapers more to the blossom end, rounded at both ends. Length 
about 7 inches, thickness 2% to 2% inches. (Pkt. 10c) (oz. 15¢)

Colorado 568 days. A sensation with market 
growers due to its very dark green color and de- 
sirable shape for shipping. Color is carried well around the tip or 
blossom end of the fruit and it is not inclined to have the light 
color stripes. Fruits about 10 inches in length, straight, and sym- 
metrical. A real money-maker for the market grower and fully 
deserves being one of the “All America” winners. Vines vigorous, 
bears bountifully. White spined. (Pkt. 10c) (0z. 20c) (%4 Ib. 60c) 
(Ib. $1.70) postpaid. 
Not postpaid (Ib. $1.45) (10 Ibs. @ $1.35) (100 Ibs. @ $1.25) 
Cubitt 68 days. Vine growth 
vigorous and plants prolific; bears 
fruits about the size of Straight-8 but average 
more blunt at the ends giving it somewhat the 
appearance of Deltus and having thick flesh 
like the Deltus. Their very deep green color 
and crisp texture are retained well in shipping 
and on the market. (Pkt. 10c) (oz. 20c) 
(% Ib. 60c) (Ib. $1.70) postpaid.

Marketer (Early Green Market) 
68 days. Southern growers like 
Marketer because of its vigorous vine and 
ability to stand intense heat of late spring. It 
is extremely prolific, throwing an unusually 
large number of female blossoms per plant re- 
sulting in heavy yields. Said to be a cross of 
Straight-8 and A. & C. Holds its dark green 
color well and particularly admired for the 
neat appearance and uniformity of fruits. 
Closely resembles a good strain of A. & GreEtas 
pering at the ends. A shy seeder and the price 
must be higher. (Pkt. 10c) (oz. 20c) (% Ib. 
65c) (Ib. $1.85) postpaid. 
Not postpaid (Ib. $1.60) (10 Ibs. @ $1.50)
