“ I add 10 cents for a packet of Delicata Squash. 
I had them once and want them again. Best squash 
lever ate." Dr. f. H. T. McDOWELL, 
Marlin, Texas. 
“ The Delicata. is delicious and prolific beyond 
expectations." LOUIS HILDEBRAND, 
Bicknell, Ind. 
This beautiful Squash is orange-yellow, splashed and striped with dark green on 
the outside. The flesh, is rich, dry and particularly fine. For private use we can 
recommend it as surpassing in richness of flavor any of the large, old-fashioned sorts. 
Delicata is the earliest of any vine Squash and is so prolific that last season, from 
twelve hills of two plants each, 352 perfect Squashes were gathered; a desirable 
feature is its small size ; not too large for an ordinary family; is wonderfully solid 
and heavy, the seed cavities being very small; it is also extremely early, maturing 
about the same time as the Summer Squashes, and for early use will doubtless sup¬ 
plant this class on account of its superior dryness and flavor, while its extreme solidity 
renders it fully as good a keeper as anv of the winter varieties. (See cut.) 10c.

“7 have planted your Delicata Squash for seven 
or eight years and can truly say it is the best all¬ 
seasons Squash I have ever used. I never cared 
much for Squash, but could ‘eat my weight,' so to 
speak, in Delicata, at any time. " 
F. B. SWIFT, Danbury, Conn. 
“Henderson's Delicata Squash is a wonderful 
Squash. It is 0 )ie of the most deliciously fine- 
flavored Squashes I ever ate.

fine-grained, sweet and dry, and of the finest flavor, 
either boiled, steamed, baked, or in pies. Price, 10c

“ I wish to say that on two vines of your Heart o' Gold Squash 
we raised eight squashes; five of them averaged 35 pounds each a>ul 
the other three 28 pounds each. They took the first premium at 
our County Fair, and were objects of much comment and greatly 
admired." 
HUBBAKD Squash, USIS: 
This old and popular favorite is still one of the very best winter 
squashes grown; flesh deep golden-yelknv and fine-grained, and whether 
boiled, steamed or baked, it is always richly flavored, sweet and dry. 
The vines are strong, of luxuriant growth and very productive, yielding 
large, heavy squashes of dark bluish-green color, weighing often 10 to 25 
lbs. each. Properly stored it may be kept from September to May.
