HENDERSON'S LONG ISLAND 
White Bush Squash. 
THE white scalloped “Patty Pan ” or “Cym- 
1 ling” has for years been a favorite sum¬ 
mer squash, on account of its earliness, etc., 
but this new sort is a vast improvement; it is 
nearly as early, more prolific and the squashes 
are much deeper, and have less prominent 
scallops, consequently are easier prepared, 
contain less waste and almost twice the amount of flesh, which is also of finer quality. The 
plants are of the true bush habit. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 35c. 34 lb., $1.00 lb. 
Mammoth Sandwich Island 
SALSIFY, or Oyster Plant. 
OPIXACH is most extensively grown during the winter 
^ and spring months, for the reason that the plants quickly 
run to seed in hot weather. With our new Long Season 
variety, Spinach may now be continuously grown in any 
home garden, so that this most delicious of “boiling 
greens” may be enjoyed not only during cool weather 
months, but in the summer as well. It forms a dense 
rosette of thick, tender and succulent, crumpled leaves 
of intensely dark green color; their great substance and 
short leaf stalks enable them to “stand up” in hot 
weather, retaining their freshness for a long period after 
cutting. There is no other variety that will stand so long 
without running to seed and remain in an edible condition. 
It is the best variety to be sown in the spring, and at 
monthly intervals for a successional summer supply.

Mammoth Bush Summer 
CROOKNECK SQUASH. 
("AXE of the most delicious of winter vegetables, 
and also one of the most nutritious; the flavor 
is sweet and highly esteemed whether served boiled 
with butter or other suitable sauce, or sliced and 
fried, or used in soup. 
This new variety, where known, is entirely super¬ 
seding the old type, as it produces roots nearly 
double the size and weight and of equally good 
quality. Seed sown in spring produces large, fine 
roots that may remain in the ground all winter or 
may be dug and stored in sand or earth in Novem¬ 
ber, thus keeping them plump and sweet, to be 
used as desired during the winter. (See cut.)
