MAULE’S PRIZE POTIRON.—The largest of all, as it has grown to simply 
immense proportions when given rich soil and extra cultivation, 1885 was beaten out of 
sight in 1886 ; for, whereas in the former year190 lbs. was the weight of the premium pump- 
kin, in 1886 it weighed 248% lbs. In 1889 John Robinette, Kidder, Mo. secured the prize 
with a 230 pounder. Itis one of the varieties sure to carry off all the honors wherever ex- 
hibited. It has salmon-colored skin; flesh bright yellow, fine grained, and of excellent 
quality. Put in a few hills of Potiron this year and see just how large aan can 
grow a Pumpkin. You will surprise yourself. Pkt., 10cts.; 0z., 20 cts.; Y% lb., 50 cts.

MAMMOTH CHILI SQUASH.—I think I can justly claim ‘ 
to have the best strain of this squash in the market, certainly there is 
no better. Outer colorarich orange-yellow ; flesh very thick and of & 
rich yellow color; quality good, very nutritious. Most profitable to 
grow for stock particularly when root crops are not largely grown, 
Keep well throughout entire winter and spring. Very productive. 
In 1883 Mr. Hewitt, of Nova Scotia, exhibited one at Dominion Exhibi_ 
tion, weighing 292 lbs. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; 14 1b., 50 ets.; Ib., $1.50.
