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.

Excerpt from The Sixty-First Annual Report of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, Vol. 1: The Report of the President and the Other Officers of Administration for the Fiscal Year Ended November 30, 1923 During the year two members of our teaching staff reached the age of seventy and retired as required by. State law. Professor William R. Hart left our service March 31st. He joined the staff in 1907 as Professor and Head of the Department of Agricultural Education. This was the first institution in the country to recognize Agricultural Education as a separate department. Professor Hart soon became recognized as one of the aggressive and sane thinkers in the field of agricultural education. He did more than any other individual in the State to broadcast the idea of Boys' and Girls' Clubs and to organize them for work. Among the four-year students he always stimulated a keen interest in education. Prior to 1907 there were probably less than a dozen M. A. C. Men teaching in Massachusetts. Of the graduates of the last sixteen years (1908 to 1923) 122 are teaching in Massachusetts, 108 are in schools or colleges outside of Massachusetts and 35 are engaged in Extension teaching. It has been said of Professor Hart that he had the clearest vision of the fundamental basis of vocational training of any man engaged in work dealing with the theory of such training. This was openly recognized by many. He held steadfastly to his ideal of what his department should be and never wavered under the most discouraging circumstances.

Excerpt from Sixty-Third Annual Report of the Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture, Vol. 1: Report of Secretary and Other Officers, 1915 The annual report of the Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture, known as "Agriculture of Massachusetts," is this year offered to the public in two parts, of which this volume is the first. The circulars which are published by the Board from time to time during the year, including the lectures and discussions at the Public Winter Meeting, are of interest to a much larger public than the routine reports of the various phases of the Boards activities. Hitherto, people who wished the informational matter obtained in the circulars have been obliged to take with it routine statistics which they often did not care for. For this reason, beginning with this number. Part I. will comprise the annual report of the secretary, the annual reports of the State Nursery Inspector, State Inspector of Apiaries, State Ornithologist, the Dairy Bureau, the specialist on boys' and girls' agricultural club work, the returns of the agricultural societies and the directory of agricultural organizations. Of Part I. only 1,500 copies will be printed. Part II. will contain the lectures and discussions given at the Public Winter Meeting and such circulars as may have been issued the previous year. Beginning with this volume, the annual report of the State Forester will not appear with the report of the State Board of Agriculture. It is desired to call the attention of persons wishing any particular one of the routine reports to the fact that they are also published as separate pamphlets, and a person desiring the report of the State Inspector of Apiaries, for example, is advised to apply for it in separate form rather than for the whole of Part I. Libraries wishing to keep a complete set of these volumes since their institution in 1852 may still do so by getting both parts.

Excerpt from Forty-Third Annual Report of the Massachusetts Agricultural College: January, 1906 The year just passed, in spite of the great losses which have been referred to, must be characterized as one of prosperity and growth. The college has admitted to its present fresh man class the largest number ever enrolled in an entering class, 86. The sophomore class, now numbering 61 men, is also, it is believed, the largest sophomore class in our his tory. The total enrollment in the regular four - year courses at the present time is 213 men, and we have 8 post - graduate students. We have, therefore, a larger number of men in college at the present time taking regular and post-graduate courses than ever before in its history.
