The Hubbard Squash is recommended by lion. Marshall P 

 Wilder, Hon. Edward Everett, and the entire Agricultural Press 

 of New England, as the sweetest, dryest and richest flavored ef 

 all winter squashes. Last Fall it readily brought in the Bostoa 

 markets $3o per ton, while the best Boston Marrow sold witJi 

 difficulty at $15. 



The Hubbard Squash has succeeded admirably in New Eng- 

 land, the West; in California, New York, and other states.
