Blue Hubbard Squash 



This is something new iflBYirfTfffBfcfci 

 in Squashes. Sent out last 

 season by Gregory & Son ; 

 they are experts on 

 squashes, and every time 

 a new variety is sent out 

 by them it is a little better 

 in quality than the form- 

 er one. Mr. Symmes, the 

 originator, obtained it by 

 careful selection from the 

 Hubbard, on which he has 

 been working for several 

 years. It is of a light 

 blue color, resembling the 

 Warted Hubbard in shape, 

 though excelling this va- 

 riety in flavor and dry- 

 ness, and surpasses all 

 other varieties in produc- 

 tiveness. The introducers 

 say this is our ninth in- 

 troduction and our best. It is also a good keeper and will keep longer after being cut ooen than mort 

 Tarieties without showing mold. 



Price per pkt. 10 cts., 2 pkts. 15 cts., oz. 25 cts., *4 lb. 75 cts.
