Hibberd's Prolific Early Marrow. This valuable prolific Marrow sets fruit quicker and in far greater abun- 

 dance than any other of this family. No sooner are the plants put out than they begin to yield great num- 

 bers of small elegant oval-formed fruits, which are ready to cook when the size of a turkey's egg. The 

 flesh is thick and the flavour most delicious. Those who wish to grow marrows under glass will find this 

 far superior to all other marrows, and for this purpose we have selected the very smallest fruits, and offer 

 the seed as under, remarking that the larger sizes set as freely and quickly as the smaller, but the smaller 

 fruits yield least seed.
