Try a New Squash This Spring—Buttercup is a Dandy 
DISCO RHUBARB 
521 VICTORIA —An excellent hardy variety for 
home use. Plants grown from seed will not all 
come true, but it is an inexpensive way of pro¬ 
ducing plants, and the undesirable ones can be 
discarded, and the good ones will grow quickly 
and easily. Stalks should not be cut until the 
second year. 
DISCO SQUASH 
550 EXTBA EARLY ORANGE MARROW—The 
earliest of the Marrow squashes, very prolific and 
a good keeper. 
551 GIANT SUMMER CROOKNECK—The largest 
summer variety, and one of the earliest. 
552 GOLDEN HUBBARD—Similar to a Hubbard in 
form, it is orange-red in color, and earlier. 
553 IMPROVED HUBBARD—The standard winter 
squash with a dark green moderately warted shell. 
The flesh is fine grained, thick and dry, of excel¬ 
lent flavor. 
554 WARTED HUBBARD — The best keeping 
squash because of its heavily warted shell, it is a 
favorite for marketing. It is fine quality, and 
grows to nearly double the size of the common 
Hubbard. 
555 EARLY WHITE BUSH SCALLOP—Very early 
summer squash. 
558 DELICIOUS—An early winter variety, medium 
sized, pear shaped. Especially noted for its good 
flavor. 
559 MAMMOTH WHALE—Two to three feet long, 
gray-green shell. 
560 TABLE QUEEN—The smallest squash, it is 
often called Acorn or Individual. When baked it 
makes two servings of excellent quality and flavor. 
561 KITCHENETTE—A convenient family size, it 
keeps well, yields generously, and is first quality 
for table use. 
562 BUTTERCUP—Another introduction by Prof. 
A. F. Yeager of the North Dakota Experimental 
Station. This is the very best squash we ever 
tasted. It is nonfibrous in texture and an excel¬ 
lent keeper. The flavor is unsurpassed and very 
sweet. Order early as stocks of seed are rather 
limited. (See illustration.) 
DISCO SWISS CHARD 
80 LUCULLUS—Only the tops of this beet are used. 
The leaves, mild and spinach-like in flavor, provide 
a great mass of tender, light green foliage. The 
thick, white stalks are splendid for creaming like 
asparagus. It replaces spinach during the hot 
weather, and will yield until frost if kept cut. 
DISCO SWEDE or RUTABAGA 
614 DISCO SPECIAL GARDEN or TABLE SWEDE 
—Popular for home and market. The large, glob¬ 
ular roots are a deep purplish red above ground, 
light yellow below, the flesh is creamy yellow, of 
fine texture and flavor. Yields well, and will keep 
until spring. A valuable food for stock. The 
growing season is longer than for turnips. 
DISCO SALSIFY or 
VEGETABLE OYSTER 
525 MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND—Esteemed 
because of its oyster flavor, these nutritious roots 
are 6 to 8 inches long, 1 inch thick. They are ready 
for use in October, and can be stored for winter 
use, or left in the ground until spring. 
DISCO SPINACH 
535 BLOOMSDALE or SAVOY—Very early and 
hardy and one of the best for market and canning. 
536 LONG STANDING ROUND SEEDED— Slower 
growing than Bloomsdale; leaves very large and 
of good substance. 
537 KING OF DENMARK —Stands longer than 
Bloomsdale, large, blistered leaves, low growing 
plants. 
Savoy Spinach 
540 NEW ZEALAND —Most heat-resistant variety, 
and if kept cut will provide tender delicious 
greens until frost. The plants which thrive on 
almost all soils produce groups of small fleshy 
leaves. Each branch produces others. It is not 
a true member of the Spinach family.
