 632 IVIammoth Golden Summer CrooknecM 



Fine Grained Flesh of Luscious Flavor. Large Size 



(55 days) This variety is an improved strain of the old Yellow Summer Crookneck 

 squash. Though it is fully twice as large, it nevertheless matures equally as early. The 

 fruits have a beautiful deep golden orange yellow skin and are much waned. They 

 are about 18 in long and have a thick, fleshy neck filled with fine grained flesh of lus- 

 cious flavor. Compact, productive plants. We think this variety is grown and used 

 more than anv other summer squash. Pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; V4 lb. 45c; Vzlb. 70c; 

 lb. SI. 15; 2 lbs. $2.10; 5 lbs. $5.05; 10 lbs. S9.20. 



629 Giant Summer Straightneck 



A Straightneck Strain of Golden Crookneck Now a Great 



Favorite with Market Growers. Easy and 



Convenient to Pack. 



(55 days) Much in demand during the past two 

 years by market growers, as they pack so nicely 

 for shipment in either hampers or crates;, be- 

 cause of the straight neck. They always arrive 

 at the market in good condition, and with no 

 "broken necks" as is often the case with the 

 Crookneck variety, its parent. Another good 

 point which will commend "Straightneck" to 

 all housewives, is that it is so much easier to 

 prepare for cooking. The flesh is salmon yellow, 

 and is so tasty when cooked that everybody 

 asks for more. The outside coloring and warting 

 is the same as in the parent variety. We 

 recommend all our friends to grow "Straight- 

 neck" this year, Pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; V4 lb. 45c; 

 1/2 lb. 70c; lb. S1.15; 21bs. $2.10; 5 lbs. S5.05;
