Cocozelle Bush= 
This is an early Squash, 
very prolific and hasgiven 
great satisfaction. The o- 
riginator)says; “The point 
in favor of this Squash is 
earliness ; it is easier to 
cultivate than a vine. 
__ ^ . . .If picked as soon as ma¬ 
tured. it will continue to bear until killed by frost. It is exceedingly hardy, persis- 
tantly living in dry soil without water. When watered it grows and matures a big 
crop. It grows just the same as the ordinary Summer Squash, requires the same 
kind of soil and tillage, and begins to bear early. It is used in the green state and ia 
better than Egg Plant when nicely fried in butter and well seasoned. It makes an 
excellent stew.” We can highly recommend this Squash. Wo are unable to offer 
larger quantities of seed than as follows ; Pkt, 5c., 3 pkts, 12c., 6 pkts. 20c., oz. 15c.
