KING OF THK MAMMOTHS PUMPKIN. 



King of the Mammoths 



THE GREAT PRIZE PUMPKIN 



This now famous pumpkin 

 first came to our attention some 

 years ago, while visiting France, 

 where we secured seed and dis- 

 tributed it among our customers. 

 The results have been astonish- 

 ing. No other pumpkin ever in- 

 troduced has reached such enor- 

 mous weights, and been awarded 

 as many prizes. Hundreds of 

 our customers have raised speci- 

 mens weighing over one hun- 

 dred and fifty pounds each. It 

 frequently attains a diameter of 

 over four feet. The flesh and skin 

 are golden yellow, and notwith- 

 standing its enormous size, it 

 makes a good table pumpkin.
