| IN 1834 a successful German gardener, coming to this country 
brought with him seed of thisradish. Time out of mind 
he has been solicited by his neighboring gardeners to let them have 
7 some of the seed, one man offered $100 for 100 lbs. of seed, and to 
j take that quantity every year at the same price. No seed intro- 
duced in years has had such a pedigree. In 1834 it was a good 
Wj radish, in 1894 I consider it one of the best varieties

: SIBLEY.—It is claimed that this will supplant the 
Hubbard. Flesh very thick, of a brilliant orange color. In 
quality itis dry, and of a rich delicate flavor peculiarly its own. 
Weighs from eight to eleven pounds. Ripens with the Hubbard, 
q) but is more prolific. Keeps into Spring. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 
10 cents; 44 pound, 20 cents; pound, 50 cents.

much sweeter.’” It seems incapable of rotting, and 
placed in a cool. dry room, keeps in perfect condition until 
late in June. While it is such a renarkable keeper, the 
skin is so very thin and delicate that the Squashe 
are prepared for the table by simply cutting in half, length- 
wise, and cooking skin and all at any time throughout 
ythe Winter. The roots and stems are slim and hard, 
furnishing absolutely no food for the squash 
borer. It is also a strong and rapid grower, so that the 
striped bug has never injured it, as it ‘“ grows away 
{from them”’—being earlier in ripening than any other 
} Winter Squash. It matures far North, where scarcely anv 
other varieties even ripen. It is as easily grown on all 
soils as the small Canada Crookneck. The meat is 
very thick, and seed cavity small. In SR pee TAnee they are 
handsome and attractive, of a bright yellow outside, and a straw 
yellow within, The green Squashes can be used at any 
) Stage ot their growth. When sliced and fried they are of such 
constituency that they never fall to pieces and in flavor are 
superior to any Summer Squash. The FORDHOOK is

WHITE CHESTNUT SQUASH.—This new Squash is 
well worthy to be classed side by side with the Hubbard. The 
introducer quotes as follows concerning it: ‘“I have named it 
| the ‘ White Chestnut’—white because the color is nearer to white 
than any other of the hard-shell squashes; chestnut, because the 
color of the flesh, and also the quality of it, is very suggestive 
of a chestnut.” In size and form, it is large and similar to the 
Hubbard, but the blossom end is strongly characteristic. being 
always small; color of the outside is much lighter than Marble-
