. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. 18 The Florists^ Review July 19, 1917. VEGETABLES AND FRUITS DEPARTMENT I HYBRIDIZING CUCUMBERS. Can you tell me how to cross the English frame cucumber, Telegraph, with Vickery Forcing, an improved White Spine, to produce the hybrid cu- cumber for greenhouse use? The hy- brid is supposed to have the good quali- ties of both, being well shaped and a heavy cropper. Any information in regard to this will be appreciated. N. C. N.—Kan. Pick off a male flower of the Tele- graph and strip away the petals, leaving only the central part of the flower. Fertilize with this a female flower or flowers of the Vickery White Spine type; the female flowers produce the fruit. Protect the fertilized flower or flowers with fine gauze to prevent ferti- lization by bees or other outside agents. It is a safe plan to protect the flowers to be fertilized before they are open; then you are sure your cross is not inter- fered with. It would be best to ferti- lize the flowers on one or two plants and to remove all the fruits from these except the ones you have fertilized, to allow the fruits to reach their best de- velopment. A vice versa cross would probably give similar results. C. W. BUFFALO. The Market. As we are well into the third week of July, business has a right, so to speak, to be a trifle slow. Although during the second week the retailer had nothing but rain to contend with, so far July is said to compare favorably with the same month of many previous years. There is an abundant supply of every- thing in the market; in fact, in some in- stances there is an oversupply. An ex- ception should be made of good Ameri- can Beauties. These are few, but Eus- sell and Francis Scott Key readily re- place them. The Killarneys have suc- cumbed to mildew, but there are plenty of others to fill the gap. Carnations have held up exceptionally well, a condi- tion attributed to the cool weather. Sweet peas are available in quantities, but many of them
