True Type Hubbard Squash 
’Underwood’s Blight Resistant.—This new 
squash is the result of crossing three varieties 
together and has now been tested for four years. 
In sections of Eastern Oregon it is very hard to 
grow squash owing to blight, but it does not 
affect this variety. It is a heavy producer and 
the squash are of good quality. The colors are 
not fixed but most of them are deep green while 
others are orange-yellow. If you are troubled 
with blight try this variety. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; % lb., 60c; lb., $1.75. 
’True Hubbard—The standard squash, and 
while we do not consider it equal to the Delic¬ 
ious in flavor, it is a heavier yielder and is better 
known in the market. We have a true stock 
of seed, carefully selected for color, shape and 
quality. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; y K lb., 35c; lb., $1.25. 
’Delicious—Mr. Gregory’s late introduc¬ 
tion; we consider the finest grained, driest 
cooking and sweetest squash in cultivation. 
Of medium size, top shaped with greenish- 
black skin, flesh very thick, orange-colored, 
with small seed cavity. Try this squash and 
be convinced that it is the best that grows. 
True seed of our own growing. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; M lb., 36c; lb., $1.25. 
Boston Morrow — Skin and flesh reddish 
yellow. Productive and a favorite with canners. 
Pkt., 5 oz., 10c; M lb., 25c; lb., 85c 
Mammoth Summer Crookneck. — Grows 
larger than the common sort. Fine for Sum¬ 
mer use. Pkt., 6c; oz., 15c; lb., 35c. 
Mammoth White Bush Scallop—Early; 
large, pure waxy white skin, somewhat flattened 
in shape. Pkt., 6c; oz., 15c; lb., 36c. 
TOMATOES 
Plant seed in box inside or in hotbed from February 15 to March 1. Transplant May 10 
to 20 in rows 6 feet wide and 5 to 6 feet in rows. A light loamy soil well cultivated and fer¬ 
tilized is best. 
’Gill’s Select Earliana — The earliest, 
smooth, first-class tomato, and will ripen a 
full crop in the Northwest states. Fruit a 
bright red, very smooth, deep from stem to 
blossom end; very solid, with few seeds and of 
fine flavor. Sets plenty of tomatoes that ripen 
in a short season. In selecting our stock seed 
in the season of 1910 we found one cluster of 
fruit which ripened even all over, not having 
any green color about the stem so common 
with this and many other varieties. Our seed 
is now all grown from this start, producing 
a more even colored Earliana than any yet 
offered. The expense of producing seed here is 
much more than the Eastern states and since 
we use only choice tomatoes that would bring 
good prices in the market, it is necessary to 
ask the following prices on seed: Pkt., 10c; 
M oz., 25c; oz., 75c; lb., $2.50. 
Perfection. — A medium large tomato of 
deep crimson scarlet. Fruits nearly round and 
uniformly smooth and of best quality. Ripens 
in mid-season. Extensively used for canning. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 26c; lb., 75c.; lb., $2.60. 
’Bonny’s Best Early.—On account of its 
heavy production, uniform shape, exquisite deep 
scarlet color, fine flavor and medium size this 
is the best market gardeners’ tomato. Only 
two weeks later than Select Earliana. Gave 
better satisfaction last Summer on the public 
market than any tomato sold there. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; ^ lb., $1.25. 
Whole Salad—Heavy yielder of medium sized 
tomatoes valuable for use as individual salad 
tomatoes, or for canning whole. Pkt., 10c. 
’Chalk’s Early Jewel—A reliable sort; 
while larger fruited than Bonny’s Best, it is not 
quite so uniform in shape; a heavy yielder of 
good flavored fruit. Our seed is carefully se¬ 
lected. Pkt., 5c; oz., 35c; lb., $1.10. 
Early Dwarf Quarter Century—Earliest 
of the dwarf or tree tomato type. The fruit 
is bright red, solid and meaty, smooth and free 
from cracks. Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; lb., $1.25. 
Stone.— One of the largest and most solid, 
bright red varieties. Fruit nearly round, 
slightly flattened, exceptionally smooth and 
uniform. Unusually fine for slicing and can¬ 
ning. Pkt., 5c; oz., 26c; lb., 76c; lb., $2.60
