Warren Squash — Improved Essex Hybrid (New England Strain) 
This fine old New 
England squash is becom¬ 
ing more popular every 
year. Many sections which 
formerly would not use 
“orange” squash are be¬ 
coming aware of the fine 
quality of this kind, and 
we are selling more seed 
each year. 
We have an excep¬ 
tionally good stock of this 
variety all grown and se¬ 
lected on our own farm. 
The squash are early, me¬ 
dium size, very uniform in 
shape and heavily warted.

strain with a well formed 
“button.” The flesh is fine 
grained, extra thick and 
the color a beautiful deep reddish orange. Seed of our own growing: See prices below.
