The Vegetable Marrow Squashes are of an English production, but should be more generally used in this country as 
they are far superior in every way to our Summer Squash. They will grow well anywhere with just a little care and the 
results are more than satisfying. When the fruit is from half to three quarters grown prepare similarly to 1 Squ^h or &ce 
and fry, like Egg Plant, and the superiority in both cases is remarkable. All the varieties of Marrows that we offer for 
planting in America this year were planted with great results last year/and we predict a great future for this vegetable 
here judging from the remarks of satisfaction on all sides.
