King of the Mammoths 
The Great Prize Pumpkin 
This truly colossal variety first came to our attention 
some years ago, while visiting: France, where we secured 
seed, and distributed it among: our customers. The results 
have been astonishing:. No other pumpkin ever introduced 
1ms reached such enormous weights, and been awarded as 
many prizes. Hundreds of our customers have raised 
specimens weighing over one hundred and fifty pounds 
each, the heaviest ever grown being two hundred and forty 
pounds. It frequently attains a diameter of over four feet. 
The flesh and skin of a bright golden yellow color, very fine 
grained, of excellent quality, and notwithstanding its enor¬ 
mous size, is one of the very best pie or table pumpkins.
