ABBOTT & COBB CUCUMBERS 
in\., (sk (G 
We are the originators of this stock of Cucumber. It is not a renamed variety nor an 
old variety remodeled. We have spent several years in developing this extraordinary strain 
and have been able to place large quantities of seed with various critical Cucumber growers. 
In every case they report it 1s the finest they have ever seen. The vine in a good stock of 
Cucumber must be robust and resistant to diseases. We have settled this question and made 
it according to our own ideas. These vines will produce an abundance of Cucumbers 10 
inches long. It is not quite as thick as a great many other stocks and will hold its greenness 
longer than any type we have ever handled. The time of maturity is 60 days.

ABBOTT & COBB PARSNIPS 
New No. 10 
We have taken a few roots of our Philadelphia Hollow-Crown Parsnip and developed 
them into what we call a No. 10 strain. We do not see where anything more can be done to 
this fine strain to make it better. The seed is grown on our farms, and we use every care 
and precaution to make this the best type 
of Parsnip ever put out. It is necessary, 
we believe, to have just as small a core 
as possible in Parsnips. This eliminates 
a certain amount of toughness when 
cooked. We cannot recommend this too 
highly.

Hollow-Crown 
Philadelphia County has always been 
noted for some extra selections of Hollow- 
Crown Parsnips. We have taken hold of 
these special strains and developed them 
into what we believe to be a real genuine 
sort, medium length and smooth, that ts, 
very few fibers. The color is the whitest 
that it is possible to produce. We grow 
our own stock seed of this sort and would 
recommend using it if you wish to pro- 
duce a fancy package of Parsnips.
