Jennie M. Swann, Brice, Ohio, says: Your Everlasting Cucumber is a wonder. Vines filled with bloom ana green fruit when killed by frost in October. No blight or disease. Mrs. J. Hessell, Cincinnati, Ohio, says: The Everlast- ing Cucumber was fine. A. B. Borts, Cobleskill. INL Y., says: I desire to add a testimonial to your wonderful Cucumber known as the Everlasting. It certainly is very correctly named and is as beautiful and prolific and palatable as it is lasting. I made an exhibition of them at our County Fair last Sep- tember and won the first premium in strong competition. We served them later for our Christmas dinner. Mrs. Frank Hutton, Ballston Spa, N. Y.f says I came across the Everlasting Cucumbers which I knew were put in the cellar when gathering vegetables but did not think of them until March. When we went to take some rotten apples we saw them in a swinging shelf just as perfect as when picked, not rotten or wrinkled. Jap Hilts, Breakabeen, PL Y., say: Your Everlast- ing Cucumber is all that you claim for it. W. G. Turner, Elyria, Ohio, says: I have at present (Jan. 20) in my cellar an Everlasting Cucumber ten inches in length. 9 V± in circumference, taken from the vine on the 12th of August, which I defy anyone to tell from a perfect Cucumber from the vine; as yet it shows no sign of rot, and is as perfectly natural in color as when it came from the vines. Edward Cousins, Tillsonburg, Ont., says: The Ever- lasting Cucumber is all right. We pulled off a medium- sized fruit Oct. 1, kept it on a shelf in the pantrv all winter and it was good and sound in March. Two local papers have published accounts of it. Mrs. E». P. Ford, Austin, 111., says: My sister, who lives on a farm in Michigan, writes that the Everlasting is the most wonderful Cucumber she ever saw. They bear so heavily and keep in winter just as you say.
