DELICIOUS (102 days)—A fall and winter sort of medium size; top-shaped 
in form and dark green, some specimens showing light green markings 
running toward the blossom end; flesh orange, very dry and delicious. 
GOLDEN DELICIOUS (100 days)—A fall and winter variety of recent 
introduction. Medium in size, somewhat top-shaped; color a rich golden 
tint; flesh dry and very thick, with highest quality. Very productive, it 
will yield more in cans per acre than any other variety of squash or pump¬ 
kin. 
HUBBARD BLUE (100 days)—A new type of Hubbard squash and said 
to excel all in the superior quality of its flesh. Form and habit of growth 
similar to the original Hubbard, but differing in having an extremely hard 
blue-gray shell. (Illustrated above.) 
HUBBARD GOLDEN (98 days)—Earlier than Hubbard. The shell is 
moderately warted, hard, strong and of a rich orange-red color; flesh deep 
orange. An excellent keeper. 
HUBBARD IMPROVED (100 days)—The standard winter squash. Fruits 
large, heavy, and moderately warted; shell dark bronze-green, showing 
more or less light green markings toward blossom end; flesh bright orange- 
yellow, fine grained, thick and dry. 
HUBBARD WARTED (100 days)—Somewhat larger in size than the well- 
known Hubbard, and of equal quality, but is more heavily warted and 
the shell is very dark green, almost black in color. Our stock of this variety 
is exceptionally true. 
MARROW, BOSTON (100 days)—The orange-colored fruits are oblong and 
somewhat flattened at the blossom end; skin is moderately hard; flesh sal¬ 
mon yellow in color and it is fine grained. Very popular with canners.
