Vegetables for Exhibition. The vegetable grower, in order to be able to select samples of vegetables for exhibition intelligently, should be familiar with the points which are considered by the judges when placing the prizes. In selecting a sample lot of vegetables of any kind for exhibition, there are three general things which should be First, the “Market qualities; Second, the signs of “good breeding;” Thfrd, “general uniformity;” given in the order of their importance. Market qualities are considered first because the value of the product on the market is deemed to be of great importance, and no sample can be weak in any one point under this head and still rank high in that respect. Under good breeding, one should observe how near all of the individual specimens selected approach the ideal type of the variety; for instance, if the samples selected under one -wariety show two or three different forms, as they often do, they may be considered as very poor breeding. Good breeding is of value because the highest market qualities are not uni- formly obtained in any variety unless good breeding has been followed. General uniformity might, in a way, come under the two preceding heads, but it is more convenient to consider it separately. Under general uniformity, one should look for uniformity of size and general appearance. Uniformity contributes very much to the attractiveness of the sample lot selected for exhibition purposes. In the following notes will be given some of the points to look for in the more important vegetables. In Potatoes—The most desirable market qualities are medium or medium large size, smooth, even surface and shal- low eyes, and freedom from knobbiness, hollow tubers, or any such defects. The tubers should be of uniform shape and short and stocky, or longer according to the type of the variety, but in no case should they be very slender or show very much tendency towards tapering ends, because, with ve few exceptions, these are indications of badly rundown seed, and therefore of poor breeding. NIONS—Should be well cured, because unless well cured ‘they will not keep. They should be pulled at least ten days before they are to be exhibited, and if they are rather green, even earlier, so that the stems will be well dried and the en- tire onion well cured by the time they are to be shown. In the curing process, they should not be left out in the sun too | Bes: rained mone: so as tarpecnined et nee should they be os on, because at ive market wants them brignt and sparkling. ith the common field varieties, to show breeding, they should all be of exactly the same shape. Sfhenever an exhibitor permits flat onions, for instance, to be mixed with round onions, he shows that h breeding whatever and should be marked down on ip score. A ee Siegen in size is here very desirable, because it appeals to the eye. Cab! ‘Heads should be fresh and firm, free from worm injury, and from any signs of black rot or other disease. The slightest indications of black rot would bar it for storage purposes. This may be detected by black streaks or spots on the leaves, either on the outside or within the head, or by black specks in the stem where the head is cut off. Size is mportant. ; ?Caulifiower—Should be trimmed as for market, with the jeaves cut off flush with the head. The head should be of nice, clear white, and not over-mature or brown. ‘Celery—Stems should be free from rust spots, of fair size, but free from pithiness, tender and of good flavor. ‘Tomatoes—Should be of good size, with smooth sur- face, preferably of the color desired by the market, free from cracks, and should have thick flesh, so that they will slice A. mo Cucumbers—Should be straight and smooth. They should have a thick flesh of good flavor, free from bitterness, and a small seed bearing portion. They should be divided into slic- ing cucumbers and the large pickling cucumbers. Squash—Should always be thoroughly ripened, unless they must be exhibited so early that they have not had time to maure. Roughness is looked for as an indication of quality, and a large neck is particularly desirable. Summer squash should be very tender. When so far developed that the surface begins to become hard, they are no longer desirable for market. a f Pumpkins—Should be divided into sugar pumpkins ani field pumpkins. Sugar pumpkins should show good quality and form rather than extra large size. Field pumpkins should show desirable form and heavy weight. They should not compete with other pumpkins or squash of any kind. In Sweet Corn—One should look for well filled ears, with fairly deep kernels and clear white color, unless it is some golden or black kerneled variety. The kernels should be in straight rows, except in the case of the Country Gentleman, which naturally has crooked rows. Size is important. The stage of maturity will depend upon the time of exhibition. ‘Beets—Should not be over four inches in diameter, and preferably not over three, because they. tend to become tough and stringy as they become larger, and undesirable for table use. Turnips—Should be divided into two classes, the common turnip and the Swedish turnip or rutabaga. For table use these should be comparatively small, tender and of good flavor. For live stock they may, of course, be larger. Badishes—Should be free from pithiness and of good flavor. Carrots—For table should be tender and not extra large. Parsnips—May be of good size, and should be smooth, which shows that they have been grown in a good, mellow soil. In Root Crops—Grown for stock, as mangels, sugar beets, carrots, turnips, etc., size is probably the most important fac- tor, but smoohness of surface, good breeding and uniformity are also imporant.
