WINTER SQUASH 
Culture Sow the seed about July 1st, using an ounce 
of seed to 10 hills, or 8 to 10 seeds per hill. Thin to three 
plants per hill. When harvesting winter squash, do not 
bruise or break the stems. 
IMPROVED HUBBARD (Green) The old standard 
Hubbard squash which has never lost its popular¬ 
ity. We offer our own improved strain, which we 
grow ourselves. Flesh bright orange-yellow, skin 
dark green and rough, slightly warted. Pkt., 10c ; 
oz., 15c; 14 lb-. 40c; lb., $1.25. 
WARTED HUBBARD Similar in all respects to 
Improved Hubbard, except that the very dark 
green skin is much more warted. This seems to 
be the favored variety at present. Pkt., 10c; oz., 
15c; y 4 lb., 40c; lb., $1.25.

but smaller and of a deep golden red color. Matures a
