STATEMENT OF DAVID WARREN, SWAMPSCOTT. 



The crop of Essex Hybrid squashes which I enter for 

 premium was raised on land that is a gravelly loam, 

 the crop of 1889 was cabbage seed, 1890 potatoes. 

 Stable manure applied each year at the rate of eight 

 cords to the acre. The present year I ploughed it about 

 six inches deep in the spring. Stable manure put on with 

 Kemp's spreader, eight cords to the acre, wheel harrowed 

 in, furrowed out, eight feet apart each way, planted four 

 seeds to a hill the first week in May, cultivated three 

 times, hoed twice. 



159 00 



I had fifteen loads and weighed three of them which 

 averaged 2185 pounds to a load, making 32,775 pounds of 

 marketable squashes. 



David Warren.
