)4 lb. of seed will plant about 100 hills; 5 to 6 lbs. of seed per acre. 
Zucca (It.) 
Yellow Prolific 
A New Summer Squash of 
Great Merit 
We consider this one of the outstand¬ 
ing triumphs of plant breeding in recent 
years. These are straightneck squash, not 
as large as the Giant varieties, but they are 
borne in great profusion on the dwarf vines. 
They are remarkable for their smooth skin 
and clear bright yellow color, having no 
trace of green even when very young. 
Growers who had this last year were 
greatly pleased with their crops. If you 
have not grown it be sure to do so. 
See price below.

This is our original strain of Straightneck which has been so popular among 
gardeners because of the very large per cent of straight fruit, with thick 
meaty necks of the desired type. The color is a bright clear yellow. Growers 
find that this is the most uniform strain they can buy.

Giant Summer Straightneck —Butter Yellow 
Seed Field of Straightneck Squash on Moreton Farm 
Market gardeners whose demand 
is for summer squash of butter yellow 
color will find this new strain ideally 
suited to their needs. It is early and very 
prolific and the fruits are quite smooth 
and entirely yellow even in the young 
stage. 
This type of Straightneck has been 
popular with many New England mar¬ 
ket gardeners. We have grown a crop 
of seed this year on our own farm, and 
can recommend it. See price above. 
“We have always found your seeds very 
satisfactory in every way and thank you 
very much for your prompt shipments .”
