BE SURE AND PLANT CASHAW PUMPKIN 
PUMPKIN 
Native of Tropical America 
Four Pounds of Seed Will Plant an Acre. Hills 8 x 8 if Planted in the Open 
Breaks ground in 4 days. One inch high in 8 days 
under most favorable circumstances in greenhouse 
The time for planting Pumpkin seed varies from the first Corn planting until about a month sub¬ 
sequent. Later than that a successful crop cannot be expected as this plant requires a long season. When 
grown with Corn every fourth hill of every fourth row may be planted in Pumpkin Seed and this should 
be done when the Corn is planted. During the working of the Corn, the Pumpkin plants will stand un¬ 
harmed, and after the corn cultivation ceases, the Pumpkin vines will extend over the field, almost covering 
it. Pumpkins are more of a field than a garden Vegetable. 
Brother Jonathan or Green Striped Cashaw 
—115 Days 
Fruit large, bottle shaped, early, with very slight 
crook-neck, not as shapely a neck as the Landreths’ 
Yellow Cashaw, many fruit being almost straight. 
Color creamy white, with irregular stripes of green. 
Flesh light yellow and thick. Average weight about 
12 pounds. 
Connecticut Field or Big Tom— 115 Days 
A large, rich, somewhat ribbed, orange yellow, slight 
oval or cylindrical fruit, flat on end. Very produc¬ 
tive, used extensively for canning. Popular for pies. 
Grown very largely in Corn fields. Average weight 
about 20 pounds. 
Japanese Pie—115 Days 
Seed large, marked in an irregular way like Chinese 
letters. Yellow fleshed, fine quality. Dark green 
skin. Similar in shape to Cashaw, but not nearly 
so crooked a neck. Color at maturity dark green, 
heavily russeted at stem-end, very productive. 
Average weight about 10 pounds. 
Kentucky Field—110 Days 
A poor selection of our famous Cheese Pumpkin. 
Many variations in shape. Some fruits very much 
like a round Watermelon. Color a light golden 
cream. Very variable in weight and form. 
LANDRETHS’ LARGE CHEESE—108 Days 
An excellent kitchen variety. Shape flat like a 
Cheese box, from which it derived its name, although 
it is slightly ribbed on edges. Outside color lemon, 
no stripes, fine quality and keeper. Often 15 inches 
across the top and 6 to 7 inches thick, top and 
bottom indented. We can say without hesitancy 
there is no stock in the market equal to the Cheese 
Pumpkin we are offering. Don’t confuse this stock 
with the Kentucky Field offered by many seedsmen 
as Cheese. Average weight 17 pounds. 
Small Early Sugar or New England Pie—115 
Days 
This is a very fine, small, sweet, fine grained pro¬ 
ductive sort for pies, of good keeping qualities. 
Fruit oval, or globular, flattened at both poles 
8 to 10 inches in diameter, slightly ribbed. Flesh a 
deep rich yellow or orange. Weight 6 to 8 pounds. 
Tennessee Sweet Potato—110 Days 
Smooth, pear shaped, with a slightly crooked neck, 
white skin slightly mottled with green. Flesh 
creamy white of fine texture. Weight about 14 
pounds. 
Landreths’ Large Cheese 
LANDRETHS’ YELLOW CASHAW—115 Days 
Our stock of this cannot be excelled by any. It is a 
mammoth prolific Pumpkin, frequently weighing 
30 pounds, with a very large, full, meaty, curved 
neck, with the best colored meat to make fine pies. 
Both outside and inside color very rich cream yellow. 
No stripes of any kind. So crookneck at times, to 
bend back so as to almost touch the main fruit. 
Yellow Monster or King of the Mammoth—120 
Days 
This is the largest Pumpkin on the market and in 
reality is a monster. For many years fruits of this 
sort have been awarded every prize in State and 
County Fairs for the largest Pumpkins. It is not 
only an exhibition sort but is a very profitable 
variety for raising for stock feeding. Bright lemon 
in color, mottled with orange. Round with a tracing 
of ribbing. Excellent flavor for table use. Weight 
60 to 100 pounds.
