MAGNOLIA CUCUMBERS-— For Pickling. and. Salad 
Culture—For largest yield of cucum- 
bers, soil should be well enriched with 
Vigoro and location should be fully ex- 
posed to the sun. Plant seed not over 
one inch deep, in hills from 3 to 5 
feet apart each way, dropping 15 to 20 
seeds in a hill. After plants begin to 
crowd, thin to 3 plants to the hill. Give 
frequent but shallow cultivation, until 
plants make runners. Pick fruit as 
soon as large enough before it begins 
to ripen, as vines will cease setting 
fruit when seeds begin to mature. In 
gathering for pickles, cut the stem in- 
stead of pulling fruit off, and be care- 
ful not to mar the fruit in any way ; 
if the skin is broken, pickles will not 
keep so well. Use % ounce to 100 feet 
of drill; 4 lbs. per acre. Control seed 
decay and seedling blight, and increase 
plant vigor and _ productiveness by 
treating seeds with Semesan before 
planting. Protect seeds from birds by 
using Stanley Crow Repellent.
