SQUASH 
CULTURE—Plant from May 10th to 20th in hills 10 feet apart, 8 to 10 seeds to the hill. Thin to 
two strong vines. Sow 200 pounds of land plaster to the acre and plow in. Write us for fertilizer hints. 
*GILL’S GOLDEN DELICIOUS—We take much 
pride in offering this remarkable squash of our 
own origin, and we believe it is destined to become 
very popular for canneries, market gardeners and 
home gardens. We have never grown a squash 
with such high quality as this and it has a very 
attractive appearance. It is the result of a cross 
between Boston Marrow and Delicious and retains 
the high quality of the Delicious and the beautiful 
color of Boston Marrow. The skin is a bright 
reddish-orange and the flesh is rich golden orange. 
The flesh is 2 to 3 inches thick and there is no 
green zone near the rind. It cooks extra dry, fine 
grained and sweet. Many of our friends say ‘it is 
better than a sweet potato.” The skin is thin with¬ 
out a hard shell but it is a fine keeper for winter 
use. On account of its high quality and attractive 
color it has created a sensation with canners and 
those who tested it claim it has the highest starch 
content of any variety they have tried. Besides all 
its other fine qualities it is the finest squash for 
pies. It grows very vigorous and produces heavy 
crops. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; Yi lb. 50c; lb. $1.50.

BARD—A small type of Hubbard of very uniform

they can be piled up like cordwood. The exterior 
of the skin is buff-orange color, while the meat 
is a rich orange. The meat is extra thick and of 
fine flavor. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; *4 lb. 50c; lb. $1.50.
