VEGETABLES FOR THE GARDEN 41 



PUMPKIN 



Small Sugar. — The best variety for market or home use, 

 being small, fine-grained, yellow, prolific, and a good keeper. 

 We tested 30 varieties the past season, but found none equal to 

 this one for commercial use. 



Golden Oblong. — Largely used for culinary purposes. Fruit 

 small, long, yellow and uniform. 



KADISH 



Early Scarlet Globe. — Nearly round, deep scarlet. Early 

 and reliable. Quality good, if used before reaching full matur- 

 ity, after which they became spongy and worthless for market. 



French Breakfast. — A quick maturing variety. Producing 

 roots obovate in form 2 to 3 inches long. Color bright red with 

 white tip. Quality good. 



Wood's Early Iraine. — A long scarlet variety. Well adapted 

 for frame or out-door growing. Quality fine. A good seller in 

 markets that prefer a long radish. 



SQUASH 



Early Prolific Marrow. — The earliest variety of any market 

 value. Vines strong and productive. Fruit medium in size ; 

 color orange red ; quality fair. A good fall variety, selling well 

 in the markets until the later and better varieties appear. 



Essex Hybrid. — Shape similar to the Turban. Shell hard ; 

 color light yellow. Flesh thick, dry, and excellent quality. 

 Quite productive. A desirable fall and early winter variety. 



Warren. — Very similar to the Essex Hybrid except in outer 

 appearance ; the shell being warty and deep orange in color. 



Hubbard. — The leading sort for winter use. Shell hard, 

 making it a fine keeper and shipper. Flesh dry and fine in 

 quality.
