able flavor, especially so when picked at the right time

WHAT OUR .... 
CUSTOMERS THINK 
Henderson’s Squasli Seed. 
“ The Mammoth Summer Crookneck Squash succeeded well with me. and pleased 
me bo much that I would like to procure more of the same seed I received, if possible. 
This Squash is not only early, but of particularly good quality for a summer 
Squash, and produces most attractive golden-orange Squashes; they would take a 
premium at any fair tor their beauty, and besides they were the most vigorous and 
productive among seven or eight other varieties that rgrew." 
•• Henderson's Delicata Squash is a wonderful Squash. It is one of the most 
deliciously tine-flavored Squashes I ever ate. Two lulls of three vines each produced 
twenty sweet, perfect Squashes." 
“ I wish you could have seen the held of Hubbard Squash that I grew from your 
seed. It was a wonder to every one. Lots of people asked me where I got my seed. 
I told them of Veter Henderson of New York—that all my seeds grow just that way. 
I had a field of five acres ot Hubbard Squash. They were immense in every way, 
the Squash running in size from 10 to 2!> lbs. each." 
VEGETABLE MARROW. A favorite 
English sort. The fruit is very variable in 
size, from nine to eighteen inches in length, 
and from four to six inches in diameter. 
Skin a greenish yellow, ilesh white, soft 
and of rich flavor. This is entirely dis¬ 
tinct from all other varieties of Squash. 
Plant eight feet apart. (See cut.) 5c. pkt.,
