Seed should not be planted until all danger of 
frost is over. In open ground plant in hills ten 
feet apart. Cultivate until the plants begin to run. 
A warm, light, rich soil is best. This may be en¬ 
riched by mixing a little commercial fertilizer 
with the soil in each hill. 
One ounce to 15 to 20 hills, 3 to 4 pounds per acre 
FALL or WINTER 
VARIETIES 
True Hubbard — The standard. 
Fruits are large, dark green, 
flesh bright, orange-yellow, 
cooking dry with an excellent 
flavor. Our strain is well select¬ 
ed and will be found satisfac¬ 
tory in every way. 100 days. 
Golden Hubbard —Very similar to 
the Green Hubbard but slightly 
earlier and of a deep golden 
red color. A very handsome 
and fine flavored Squash. 98 
days. 
Blue Hubbard —A selection from 
the Hubbard. .Fruit a grayish- 
blue color, large growing and 
a very good keeper due to its 
hard shells. Quality even better 
than the Hubbard. Our seed is 
from selected fruits only. 100 
days. 
Essex Hybrid —A turban-shaped squash, terra¬ 
cotta red in color with somewhat darker flesh 
than Hubbard and an excellent keeper. Very 
popular in New England. 110 days. 
Table Queen —An acorn shaped dark green little 
Squash with a hard shell which is excellent for 
winter use. When halved and baked it may be 
eaten at the table exactly as a cantaloupe. 
The flavor is delicious. 58 days. 
Summer Straightneck 
SUMMER 
VARIETIES 
Giant Summer Crookneck —Fruit 
much larger than the common 
sort while just as early and 
tender. Color a deep yellow, 
very warty. Fruit often two feet 
long. 56 days. 
Early Summer Crookneck —Early 
and of fine quality. Vine very 
bushy and so may be planted 
close together. 50 days. 
White Bush Scallop —The fruit is flattened and 
scalloped, about 8 inches in diameter when 
mature and is a creamy white in color. When 
the fruits are about the size of a silver dollar 
they may be picked and prepared like Aspara¬ 
gus. They are delicious. Constant picking 
forces the plant to bear more heavily. 50 days. 
Italian Vegetable Marrow (Cocozelle Longe)— 
Oblong, furrowed and ribbed. About 12 x 5. 
dark green in color mottled with yellow and 
striped. 55 days. 
Summer Straightneck —The most desirable strain 
of summer squash on the market. It is early 
and productive, the fruit is almost uniformly 
straight and holds the same shape its entire 
length and is an ideal light cream color which 
lasts until it is nearly mature. The warts or 
hard knobs do not appear for some time. We 
recommend this to a high quality market. 55 
days. (See Page 3.)
