Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sixty-Third Annual Report of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, Vol. 1: The Report of the President and Other Officers of Administration for the Fiscal Year Ended Nov. 30, 1925 All cucumber houses should be well drained to prevent the soil from becoming water - logged. The young plants should be lightly watered to make them send out a good root system. The soil should be watered in such a way that the water will not stand on top of the ground. A sprinkler system is better than a hose without a nozzle, because not so much water is applied and it soaks into the soil better. The plants should be Watered when it is necessary. They should not be watered as a matter of daily routine. The objective should be to get a good vigorous, healthy, fast growing plant that will mature a large number of fertilized flowers. Nubbins and deformed cucumbers should be removed from the vine as soon as it is apparent that they will not be well shaped cucumbers, since if once deformed they can never develop into a salable form. If they are left on the vine in the hope that they will develop into good cucumbers, thev merely drain the strength of the plant and prevent it from developing normal fruit. Much less vitality is needed to produce a normal cucumber of salable size than is used to carry a nubbin to maturity, since in the for mer the seeds are small and undeveloped while in the latter the fruit ripens and seeds are fully developed. The removal of a maturing cucumber results in further production of pistillate flowers, and consequently further fruit production. It is a slight task to remove the nubbins when the vines are being trained or pruned. Pruning should be a daily rather than' a monthly practice. Much less damage is done if the growing tips of branches are pinched off than if seven or eight nodes are allowed to form on the branches and are then cut off with a knife. A large amount of sugar is made by the leaves of these branches and if they are cut off suddenly a starvation effect is brought about, the physiological balance of the plant is upset, and a large number of nubbins or yellow pickles will be produced.

When that is done, all our students before entering the junior year will have had an introduction to the whole field of the agricultural problem, in its practical, scientific, eco nomic and social aspects. There is a strong feeling -on the part of the instructors in agri cultural economics and rural sociology that majors should be offered in both of these departments in order that men may specialize and fit themselves for some of the new positions that are opening for men trained in these subjects.
