OHIO MR 17 (Mosaic Resistant) (Black Spine) Cc 56 
A new mosaic resistant pickling variety developed by the Ohio Agricultural Experiment 
Station from crosses involving Chinese Long, Early Russian, and National Pickling. The 
original cross was made by Dr. H. M. Munger of Cornell University. Vine is vigorous 
and a healthy dark green color, producing fruit heavily right up until frost. A crop 
Saver where mosaic is present, and a good pickler under all conditions. Holds its color 
and firmness well. 
FRUIT—6 ¥% inches long, 2% inches in diameter. Resembles National Pickling except 
darker green and somewhat longer (at a given diameter). Flesh is thicker 
and solid, and the seed cavity proportionately small. 
OHIO MR 25 (Mosaic Resistant) (Black Spine) C 58 
This is a new selection out of Ohio MR 17 for a better shaped, shorter, firm pickling 
variety. It is highly mosaic resistant, with fruit a little shorter than Ohio MR 17, so 
better for pickling. Very high yielder. 
FRUIT—tThe same shape as National Pickling. 7 inches long, 3 inches in diameter, 
thick, firm flesh, walls of uniform thickness. 
PALMETTO (Downy Mildew Resistant) (White Spine ) S 66 
A development of Dr. W. C. Barnes, Clemson College, South Carolina, for Southern 
growing conditions where downy mildew is always a threat to production. A very good 
yielder, but fruit shape and size are rather variable. 
FRUIT—8 inches long, 2% inches in diameter, thick flesh and small seed cavity. Me- 
dium dark green, with slightly pointed ends. 
SANTEE (Downy Mildew Resistant) (White Spine) S 59 
A sister line of Palmetto developed by Dr. W. C. Barnes, Clemson College, South Caro- 
lina. Introduced for its earliness, tolerance to downy mildew, and fine fruit character- 
istics. More uniform than Palmetto, but considered to be a lighter yielder. 
FRUIT—9 inches long, 2 inches in diameter, cylindrical, the ends being slightly more 
pointed than Cubit (which Santee resembles). Very dark green,
