2 - eee The vine is a vigorous but not rampant 
grower and wonderfully productive, expending the energy 
derived from liberal fertilizing in the production of an increased 
number rather than of overgrown and coarse fruits as some vari- 
eties are apt to do. It ripens its crop very early and uniformly, 
thus ae a certain cropper. The fruits are very uniform 
in size, weighing from six toeight pounds, and in shape are like 
the Hubbard. Though maturing early they are wonderfully 
long keepers so they can be held over in good condition 
for spring use. The shell is warty, hard and strong and a very 
beautiful orange red color except for a bit of olive green on 
the blossom end. The fiesh is a deep orange and uniformly so 
to the rind, never having the green tinge so objectionable in 
the older sort. It cooks very dry. fine grained and good flavored. 
We believe this is the best fall and winter sort yet intro- 
duced and that it deserves to and will become a most popu- 
lar variety. It certainly has no superior asa table squash.
