GOURDS. 
CuLTURE.—Gourds are tender annuals, of trailing or climbing habit. 
The seed should not be planted until the ground is warm. Plant in 
hills and cultivate as cucumbers. Leave only three or four plants in a 
hill, and allow the vines to ramble or train over a trellis. Sow two 
ounces to 100 hills. 
DISH CLOTH.—The peculiar lining of this valuable gourd gives it 
its name. The fruit grows about two feet long. The interior membrane 
is serviceable for a variety of household purposes, being used as a dish 
cloth, a sponge. The fibre is tough, elastic and durable. Start seed 
under glass in the North. Packet, 10 cents. 
ORANGE OR TRUE MOCK ORANGE.

way into the family sewing basket. A beau- 
tiful and rapid climber, quickly covering 
trellises. Fruit the size and shape of an 
orange. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 15 cents.

gourd. When grown on the ground the stem 
is much curved;

Straight. This 
gour is very 
much in demand.
