PUMPKIN. 
German, Kurbis. — French, Courge . — Spanish, Calabaza. 
The Pumpkin is now little used except for agricultural purposes, the squashes being so much sweeter and 
drier and finer grained for the kitchen. The farmer, however, finds the Pumpkin a serviceable addition to his 
feed. The most common and least troublesome method of cultivation is to plant them with corn, two or three 
seeds in each hill. 
Sweet Sugar, round, not large, but very sweet, and an excellent table variety . 
Mammoth, grows to an immense size, often weighing over one hundred pounds 
Connecticut Field, very productive ; largely grown for feeding stock. Per bushel, $4.00 
Large Cheese, very productive ; grown for both stock and table .
