PUMpif IMC They ought to be grotvn largely on every farm in the South. Many 
■ sorts are splendid for pies and baking; others make a splendid feed 
for stock during the winter months. This is a neglected crop in the South now, but should 
be more largely grown. They are easily sold in the towns and cities when not wanted for 
use on the farm. Plant pumpkins on the farm in 1913 — it will pay you. 
Usually grown in corn-fields, but if grown as a separate crop, seed should 
WMl&uic be planted in hills 8 to 10 feet apart each way after weather and soil get 
warm. Hoe often till vines begin to run. When leaves die cut the pumpkins from vine, 
leaving 3 to 4 inches of stem attached and store in a dry place. Handle carefully and avoid 
bruising. Use 1 ounce of seed to 20 hills of most varieties ; 3 to 4 pounds per acre. 
Japanese Pie Pumpkin MM 
A distinct Japanese variety, adapted to all 
parts of the South. Our engraving shows the 
exact shape of this variety. It is very meaty 
and solid and in general appearance greatly 
resembles the Cashaw, but is earlier and 
usually larger. Meat is rather free from wa- 
ter and is easily cut and dried if desired.

Jumbo Pumpkin 
Do you want to grow the 
biggest pumpkin in your 
county? If so, our Jumbo is 
the variety to do it with. The 
pumpkin from which our en- 
graving was made weighed 
220 pounds. It is nothing to 
grow them weighing from 
100 to 125 pounds on unfer- 
tilized ground. Under good 
cultivation it’s a monster. In 
quality it is good, consider- 
ing the size. Flesh is a bright 
golden yellow and fine grain- 
ed. A good yielder and keeps 
well if handled carefully in 
gathering. Pkt., 10c.; oz., 15 
cts.; % lb., 35 cts.; lb., $1.00. 
Improved Green 
Striped Cashaw 
A great improvement on 
the old-time Yellow Cashaw. 
The pumpkins are much fin- 
er in appearance, being a 
distinct mottled green strip- 
ed with white. Flesh is a 
rich yellow color; solid, fine 
grained, very thick. Sweet 
and most excellent f^r both 
nies and baking. Thev are 
very hardy, bugs seldom 
bothering them. Can be 
grown among the corn and 
makes heavier yields than 
the old Yellow Cashaw and 
is better for stock feeding
