WINTER SQUASH — Continued 
TABLE QUEEN. The Individual Squash. Also known as Des 
Moines, Acorn and Queen Ann. This little squash has become one of 
the most popular kinds for “individual” baking. The fruit is dark green, 
4 to 5 in. long and 4 in. in diameter, deeply ribbed and with a smooth 
hardshell. It is of a very convenient size for baking in the shell. The 
flesh is deep yellow, sweet, of fine flavor, dry and free from stringiness. 
The squash will keep all winter and should be allowed to ripen thoroughly 
before using. We are pleased to offer a strain that has proved to be very 
uniform in size, type and dark green color.

Summer Squash 
A packet of seed of summer varieties \ 
GIANT SUMMER STRAIGHTNECK. See colored photo on preced¬ 
ing page. This new summer squash has now almost entirely replaced 
the old Crookneck type, in both home and commercial gardens. It dif¬ 
fers from the old Crookneck only in shape; the “neck” instead of being 
curved is straight and is more attractive in appearance and is much 
. easier to pack in crates or boxes. The fruit is of large size, and of clear 
fight yellow color. 
We have succeeded in breeding up a strain which produces almost all 
straight squash and can be relied on to give satisfaction to the most 
critical growers.

yellow and very warty. Dwarf or bush vines.

ITALIAN VEGETABLE MARROW. (Cocozelle). This is the most 
delicate and fine flavored summer squash we have ever grown. Italian 
Vegetable Marrow is becoming more and more in demand each year and 
is a profitable crop to grow both for market and roadside stands. The 
plant is of bush type wilhout runners and the fruit is long and slender, 
mottled with dark and fight green. It is used when 10 or 12 inches long 
and while perfectly green. It can be cooked like summer squash or cut in 
slices and fried in butter. Try it. Our stock is very fine being uniform in 
shape and of dark green color.

PUMPKINS 
A packet will plant 5 or 6 hills, an ounce 20 hills. 
Zucca (It.) 
A few hills of pumpkins in the garden will give you the “ makins” of many 
delicious pies in the fall and winter. If you grow your own you can get 
pumpkins of a quality that is impossible to match in the commercial 
canned product, and at very small cost. 
If your garden is small, plant a few hills among the sweet corn. It will 
not take any extra ground. 
ORANGE WINTER LUXURY. Fine for Pies. This new strain of the 
old Winter Luxury pumpkin is a great improvement over that popular 
kind. The pumpkins are of a deep orange color, beautifully netted and 
the flesh is very thick, deep orange yellow and of the very finest quality 
for pies. The fruit is of good size, being nearly twice as large as the Small 
Sugar pumpkin, and will keep all winter if put in a dry moderately 
warm place. 
Our seed will produce pumpkins of very uniform size, shape and color.
