SauabU For Summer and Winter Use 
When the weather has become settled and warm, 
plant in hills—bush varieties 4 feet apart each way, 
the running kinds 8 feet apart. Sow 8 to 10 seeds in 
each hill, 1 inch deep, thinning out after they have 
made their fourth leaf to three of the strongest 
plants. 
One package of Summer Squash seed will sow 
15 hills; 3 to 4 pounds an acre. 
One package of Winter Squash seed will sow 
6 to 8 hills; 2 pounds an acre. 
SUMMER SQUASH 
Early Straightneck. A very light yellow, rather 
smooth-skinned summer squash, with the straight 
neck now so popular with both private and com¬ 
mercial gardeners. The flesh is of splendid qual¬ 
ity and fine flavor. In our trials this variety of 
straightneck squash was earlier and bore more 
fruit than any other kind. Pkg. 10c; oz. 20c; 
1/4 lb. 50c; lb. $1.50. 
MAMMOTH SUMMER CROOKNECK. The largest and 
one of the earliest of the crookneck summer 
squashes. Vines are of bush habit, larger and 
more vigorous than Summer Crookneck. When 
mature, the fruits are often 1 ]A to 2 feet long, 
with exceedingly warted surface. Its large size and 
attractive deep yellow color make this variety a 
favorite with market gardeners as well as for 
home garden use. Pkg. 10c; oz. 15c; Vi lb. 40c; 
lb. $1.25. 
White Bush Scallop. A patty-pan variety with 
creamy white skin and flesh of extra fine quality. 
Vines are free bearers. Pkg. 10c; oz. 20c; Vi lb. 
45c; lb. $1.45. 
A New High-Quality Squash 
TABLE QUEEN or ACORN. People who have tried 
this squash claim its quality superior to that of 
any other. It is a small kind, about the size of o 
cocoanut, thin-skinned, with thick meat, dry and 
mealy. To cook, cut in half, place a lump of 
butter on one half, top with the other, and then 
bake whole. Half a squash serves one person. An 
enormous yielder—a few hills will supply a good 
sized family. Try it this year—we are sure you will 
like it. Pkg. 10c; oz. 15c; 1/4 lb. 45c; lb. $1.45. 
WINTER SQUASH 
DELICIOUS. This is the finest of any of the winter 
squashes. The meat is so dry and fine grained that 
it greatly resembles that of a good sweet potato. 
Delicious does not grow as large as Hubbard, usu¬ 
ally weighing from 5 to 10 lbs., but is very heavy 
as the orange colored flesh is so thick that there 
is but veiy little seed cavity in the center. A 
splendid winter keeper and one you should grow in 
the garden. Pkg. 10c; oz. 20c; 1/4 lb. 45c; lb. 
$1.50. 
Golden Delicious. This new squash is particularly 
good for home garden and for roadside stands. 
The fruit is of medium size, weighing from 5 to 
10 pounds, skin orange-yellow; the flesh very 
thick, fine grained, dry, and of very high quality. 
Plant is strong growing and a most prolific bearer.

VEGETABLE MARROW 
Italian Vegetable Marrow, Cocozelle, or 
Vick's Summer Asparagus. Grows like a 
summer squash. Fruit oblong and deep 
green. Cut when not more than 5 inches 
long. This is the vegetable marrow so 
largely grown in Europe, and its fine qual¬ 
ities as a garden vegetable make it worthy 
of room in your own garden. Try it this 
year and give it plenty of sheep manure 
and water. Cook and serve same as aspara¬ 
gus. Cut in small pieces and creamed, 
sliced and fried, or used as a salad, it is 
very delicious. Plant in hills in May and 
every two weeks until July. This should be 
in every garden. Pkg. 10c; oz. 20c; 'A lb.
