D. & B. WHITE BUSH 
HUBBARD SQUASH 
Parsley —Continued 
soak the seed 24 to 48 hours before sowing, to hasten germina¬ 
tion, covering the rows with boards or old bags to retain the 
moisture and prevent washing from heavy rains. One ounce 
will sow about 150 feet. 
CHAMPION MOSS CURLED—We consider this the best and 
most satisfactory variety to grow for garnishing and flavor¬ 
ing soups, etc. The leaves are beautifully and very densely 
curled and crimped like luxuriant moss. Is also used as an 
ornamental plant for walks and borders. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; 
J4 lb. 25c; lb. 75c, postpaid. 
PLAIN OR SINGLE—This is the hardiest variety; foliage 
very dark green with plain leaves, having a strong Parsley 
flavor, and much preferred in French cooking. Pkt. 5c; oz. 
10c; % lb. 25c; lb. 75c. 
SQUASH 
CULTURE—After danger of frost is past, plant in rich, soft, 
loamy soil in well fertilized hills. Plant 8 to 10 seeds around 
in the hill, and when plants are well up and begin to leaf, thin 
to 3 of the strongest plants. The hills for the bush varieties 
should be about 5 feet apart and the running kinds about 8 
to 10 feet. One ounce will plant about 15 hills; 3 lbs. to the 
acre. 
D. & B.’S EARLY WHITE BUSH—The most popular variety 
for early home use. Is nice size, very prolific, light cream 
color, of delicate flavor. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c; *4 lb. 25c; lb. 70c,

MAMMOTH WHITE BUSH—While similar in shape to the 
Early White Bush from which it was originally derived, it 
is of a considerably larger size and more uniform in shape, 
a beautiful waxy white color and about a week or 10 days 
later. Has tender flesh of good quality and yields abun¬ 
dantly. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; J4 lb. 25c; lb. 75c, postpaid. 
TABLE QUEEN—We can truly say that the height of Squash 
quality is still unknown to one who has not eaten half a 
Table Queen, baked and buttered. In size Table Queen equals 
a fair sized husked cocoanut, and a half, baked, serves one 
person amply. The shell is usually thin and it does not re¬ 
quire over twenty minutes for baking or boiling. The color 
is dark green, changing to bright golden after picking and 
storing. The meat is dry and mealy. It yields enormously— 
a few hills furnishing an ample supply for a good sized fam¬ 
ily. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; lb. 30c; lb. $1.00. 
GIANT CROOKNECK—The best and richest Crookneck Sum¬ 
mer Squash. It is an early Bush Squash of bright golden 
yellow color, profusely warted, very prolific, grows to a good 
size and bears continuously through the summer. Pkt. 5c; 
oz. 10c; % lb. 25c; lb. 75c, postpaid.

table sort, very early and productive—fruits when matured 
small crooknecked and covered with warty excrescences. Pkt. 
5c; oz. 10c; % lb- 25c; lb. 70c.
