Good for These varieties are mostly all good for one purpose or another. The small sorts are natur- ally preferred for pickling, the nied sorts for slicing, and the large, late va rieties for ripe fruits. The Whit Spine varieties are great favorites fo slicing, and only less so for pickling. The unrelenting enemies of the Cucumber in the field are the Cucumber beetles {Dia- brotica, spp.) and the squash bug {Atiasii trisiis). No effectual preventive measures are known except to cover the young plants with small wire or hoop frames, over which fine netting is stretched. If the plants are kept quite free from attack till these protec- tors are outgrown, they will usually suffer lit- tle damage. Plants started in hotbeds or green- houses (see above) may usually be kept free at first, and this is the chief advantage of such practices. The Cu- cumber beetles are kept away somewhat at times by strewing tobacco stems thickly under the plants ; and kerosene emulsion will sometimes discommode the young squash bugs without killing the vines, but usu- ally not.
