Davis Perfect Cucumber Cucumbers
Burrell's Special Stock. This very valuable new sort was introduced in 1906, and I immediately secured from the introducer a considerable quantity of the seed. This I carefully planted and from the crop I selected the finest specimens for stock seed. I have kept up this selection each year and this year I grew a large acreage and am pleased to say I have seed of this valuable sort to offer to my customers at prices which surely merit your orders when you consider it is one of the best possible to secure. The cucumbers shown in the photo below are Davis Perfect. This cucumber is exactly the same color as Burrell's Kondike, being dark green. Length about 10 inches when suitable to ship, and size quite uniform. It is an excellent sort either for hot house or outdoor culture. Grown out of doors the color resembles hot house grown stock and it sells well in competition with them. Price-(5c per pkt.) (15c per oz.) (40c per ¼ lb.) ($1.50 per lb.) ($1.35 per lb. In 10-lb. Lots) ($1.25 in 100-lb. Lots), prepaid. (500-lb. Lots not prepaid, $1.10 per lb.) If you can club with other growers and buy in large lots write for special offers on any variety.
