CUCUMBER SEEDS 
CULTURE—One ounce will plant 60 hills : 1 to 2 pounds will plant 1 acre. Cucumbers succeed best in warm, rich, sandy loam, 
and should not be planted in open air until there is a prospect of settled warm weather. Plant in hills about 4 feet apart each 
way, and when all danger of insects is past, thin out the plants, leaving 3 or 4 of the strongest to each hill.

DUTOX 
Will Control Striped and 
Spotted Beetle and 
Pickle Worm on 
Cucumbers 
Use from 2 to 6 pounds of 
Dutox per acre for dusting cu¬ 
cumbers. For control of striped 
and b potted beetles, dusting 
should be begun as soon as plants 
are up and applied every 10 days 
as long as the insects continue 
to come. For control of the pickle 
worm, which bores into the cu¬ 
cumber, begin dusting when the 
first cucumbers form and apply 
Dutox every 10 days until most 
of the crop is harvested. In all 
cases dust the plant thoroughly 
and evenly, especially the under 
side of the leaves. See Index.
