CUCUMBERS 
Do not plant Cucumbers before danger of frost has passed, as the plants are very tender and the least frost 
will damage them or kill them. Plant in hills or rows 4 feet apart, 10 to 15 seeds to each hill; make soil very rich: 
For pickles plant from June 1st to middle of July. One ounce will plant 50 hills, 2 lbs. will plant 1 acre.

MARKETER. (1942 All-America Selection). Outstanding character- 
istics of this new variety are its earliness, its trim shape and rich 
deep green color which is carried right down to the blossom end of 
the fruits. The vines are very prolific and have shown less damage 
from mosaic than standard varieties grown in close proximity, possibly 
due to their undoubtedly vigorous habit of growth. An interesting 
feature is the larger than usual proportion of female blossoms which 
contributes both to earliness and to yield. The fruits are not quite 
so long as some of the slicing varieties commonly grown, and to most 
home gardeners this will be an attraction since one of these handy 
sized Marketer fruits is more likely to be completely 
used up at a time. From the market grower’s point of 
view, its earliness, uniformity of size and heavy yield 
will be of importance in addition to the appeal it will 
make to the buyer’s eye. The Blue Ribbon award to 
Marketer is a new departure in the All-America 
Selections, its purpose being to indicate the highest 
ranking in the trials, regardless of the type of medal 
awarded. This is an Asgrow creation.

New Iutroduction for 1944. 
CUBIT CUCUMBER 
The latest Bronze Medal award has been won by a 
new, long slicing Cucumber, to be known by the easily 
remembered name of Cubit. 
Cubit is a prolific, white spined variety distinguished 
by unusually uniform dark green exterior color and 
long, blunt-ended cylindrical shape. The interior has 
smooth, crisp texture with small seed area and it is 
admirably adapted for slicing. It does not quickly “flag 
down”’ but holds its fresh quality well, which is an im- 
portant factor for market growers. Cubit is a main 
crop long slicing variety; when grown under proper 
conditions, the deep green exterior color is carried 
down to the blossom end, with negligible signs of 
striping.
