Henderson’s Delicata Squash. 
For both summer and winter use. 
Wonderfully prolific. 
Dry, sweet and rich. 
DELICATA is the earliest of any vine Squash, maturing but 
a few days later than the summer varieties, and it will doubt- 
less largely supplant the latter class, as Delicata is far su- 
perior in quality, being as dry, sweet and richly flavored as 
most winter Squash. The fruits, although of small size, are 
very solid and heavy, and are borne with remarkable free- 
dom; twelve hills of two plants each gave us 352 perfect 
squashes last season. Seed cavities very small; flesh fine- 
grained; surface color, orange splashed with green. Properly 
stored they keep well through the winter. (See cut.) Price, 10c.

“ Henderson's Delicata Squash is a wonderful Squash. It is one of the most

duced twenty sweet, perfect Squashes.”—JOHN P. RHODES, Rahway, N. J. 
Henderson’s Heart O’Gold Squash. 
Strong, healthy grower. Bountiful yielder. 
The best for pies and cooking. Deep, solid, fine-grained 
flesh of brilliant reddish-orange; quality, 
flavor and dryness unequaled. 
This is one of the best autumn and 
winter squashes—a good keeper. The 
vine isa strong grower, almost borer- 
proof, and a- prolific bearer of large 
reddish-orange squashes, weighing 
from 25 to 35 1bs. each. The flesh is 
golden-red, very deep, fine-grained, 
sweet and dry, and of the finest 
flavor, either boiled, steamed, baked 
or in pies. (See cut.) 0c. pkt., 40c. 0z., 
$1.00 %{ Ib. 
“We had a Heart O’Gold Squash in our 
garden that weighed 100 pounds; it was quite 
a curiosity about here, so we had it photo- 
graphed and send you a copy. On another vine 
from the same plant there are three squashes 
that willreach at least 50, 40 and 30 Ibs. each.’ 
Mrs. E. A. WOLCOTT, Vallmadge, Ohio. 
“T write particularly to tell you about our 
Heart O’Gold Squash; it is certainly the very 
best squash we have ever eaten—dry, fine- 
flavored aud thick-meated.”’ 
G. E. STOPFORD, Amherst, Can. 
“ The Heart O’Gold Squash is not only good 
eating, but is magnificent in appearance when 
ripe, a noble production surely; for an exhibi- 
tion they are also A 1.” E ‘

average weight between five and 
ten pounds. Seed cavity small, flesh 
exceedingly thick, compact, fine-

mealy dryness, cooking sweet and 
rich, whether steamed, baked, boiled 
or made into pies. This variety 
may be used in the fall, but in winter

of the parent, with the additional merits of thicker flesh, 
finer color, increased size, better constitution and productive-

shell, which not only indicates superior quality, but renders 
it one of the best winter keepers. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. 0z., 50c.
