Harvesting Blue Hubbard Squash for Seed on Moreton Farm 
Blue Hubbard —Harris’ Selected Strain 
This stock is the result of years of close breeding and is considered the finest purest stock 
grown. It can be relied on to produce large yields of large true type squash. Our seed is all of 
our own growing here on Moreton Farm. 
Although originally a New England variety, the fine quality yield and fine keeping ability 
have made this a most popular variety throughout the east. There is always a good market for 
Harris’ Blue Hubbard. See prices below. 
Warren Squash — Improved Essex Hybrid (New England strain ) 
This fine old New England squash has become popular in many sections which formerly 
would not use “orange” squash. In sections where this type is grown our stocks has proved very 
satisfactory. 
The squash are early, medium size, very uniform in shape and heavily warted. The vines 
produce large crops. We have bred this strain with a well formed but not too prominent 
“button.” The flesh is fine grained, extra thick and the color a beautiful deep orange red. Seed 
of our own growing. See prices below.
