Mammoth Chili Squash, 
This is probably the largest and most productive ut all Hie 
mammoth squashes. AVe have grown it as a field crop lor 
two seasons, and the enormous size and number of squashes 
produced has excited the wonder of all who have seen them. 
Man v of them weigh from one to two hundred lbs., and 
some go still higher. At the Fairs where we have *lm\vn 
them they have attracted more attention than any oilier one 
thiu«-. Bv planting thinly, manuring highly, and allowing 
only one squash to grow on a vine, they grow to a mon- 
strous size. ,, . «_.,,,.
