311103ETING OF CUCUMBER:
GROWERS
A meeting of those interested in
gnawing cucuuthers in this commun-
ity was held in the Towin Hall Tues-
day afternoon and a large number
of future cucumber growers were
present. Mr. J. E. Burgess, field
supt: for Libby, McNeil'& Libby, Ltd.
of Chatham, gave a lot of useful in-
formation on -the, growing and caring
for cucumbers. The first thing he
mentioned was the soil which should
be light .clay ,loana; sandy Joarri, or
sod ground, The ground should be
Mough•ed deep and thoroughly cnl-
tivated. 6,The cucumber seed should
be sown about the first of 'June and
should be placed in drills about 7
or 8 feet apart. When they have.
collie up about 2 or 3 inches Or after
the first leaf has sprouted they
should be blocked out to about 6 or
8 inches apart and later thinned out
to about 14 inches. The vines should
be trained to keep straight and not
tangle with the vines of the other
rows. The seen. should be planted
half to three-quarters of an inch
deep. There is ,a little beetle that,
sometimes eats the stalk of the plant
and is best got rid of by paris green
and sawdust spread around the
ground and near the' stock of .the
plant. The pickling should be done
when the fruit is small as the money
is made in the small cucumbers. He
advised taking ,two baskets along
.putting the small in one and the large
in the ether. They should not be
picked when the .dew is on them.
A large cucumber should ri:ot be left
on the vine as it will absorb as mitch
moisture as, fifty small ones will.
the clearing station the cucumbers
are again sorted; put hi 'brine a,nd
shipped te Chatham in ''40
bartels. 118 aeres have ben se-
cured, this vicinitY. Acreage is
,also" being contracted for in. the vic-
infty of Hensall. Mr. Moore repre-
senting a fertilizer firm, gave a,n ad-
dreS's on fertilizers. ,Mr. Burgess be-
lieves that cauliflowers could be
grown kiccessfully.and profitably in
this district.
