MAULE'S IMPROVED HUBBARD SQUASH. 



ess Maule's Improved Hubbard Squash 



THE ACKNOWLEDGED STANDARD FOR QUALITY 



More people in more places plant the Hubbard squash than any other 

 sort; that is, it is the American favorite. It out-seUs all other varieties 

 in winter in the great Eastern markets. It is an especial favorite in New 

 York and New England, but reaches perfection almost everywhere at 

 the North from ocean to ocean. Thousands and tens of thousands of 

 barrels of Habbards are annually disposed of in Philadelphia, New York 

 find Boston. While the average strain is good there are differences in 

 the Hubbard type which should be recognized by progressive gardeners. 



Maule's Improved Hubbard represents the perfection of the type. 



The flesh is of a rich, deep golden yellow or orange color, and is very 

 fine grained, solid, dry and sweet. The toughness of the rind or 

 shell makes it a good winter keeper.

Japanese Turnip 



Large, Tender and Sweet, Deserving Universal Trial 



This grand turnip is a large white variety, of great merit, and comes 

 directly from Japan; in fact, the seed which we offer was actually grown 

 in Japan, and was imported expressly for this season's sales. The shape 

 of the turnip, as shown in the illustration, is between flat and globe. The 

 color is a pure white, both outside and inside, except that there is a pale 

 tinting of green on top, near the leaves. As it is a large turnip it has 

 correspondingly large and vigorous leaves. It is solid and meaty in 

 flesh. As a heavv cropper and reliable winter keeper it cannot be ex- 

 celled, and we recommend it for table use as well as for stock.

 pound, $1.25, postpaid.
