SUMMER SQUASH —Continued 
Early Yellow Prolific 
A New Summer Squash of Great Merit 
These are straightneck squash, not as large as the Giant varieties, but they are borne in great 
profusion on the dwarf vines. These squash are very uniform for shape and size and are remarkable 
for their smooth skin and clear bright yellow color, having no trace of green even when very young. 
Growers who have grown this squash were greatly pleased with their crops. If you have 
not grown it be sure to do so. See price below. 
Early Giant Crookneck. 
Larger than the old Bush Crookneck and equally early. True strain. 
Early Yellow Bush Scallop. 
Similar to the white, except in color. See below. 
GIANT SUMMER STRAIGHTNECK. Bright Yellow... 
This is our original strain of light yellow 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. Some of the young fruits 
show a pale green co'or which gives them an attractive tender appearance. 
Growers find that this is the most uniform strain they can buy.

productiveness.” Fred G. Burckhart, Cape Elizabeth, Me. January 9, 1939.

Harris’ New York State Certified Tomato Seed 
This is the fifth successive year we have offered New York State Certified Tomato seed of 
our own growing. This seed must meet the highest standard of purity and freedom from disease. 
Most of the tomato seed sold today is a by-product from fruit which has been processed in 
canning factories for the juice. Our Certified Tomato Seed is all grown on our own farms for seed 
only, and in comparatively small fields which have our careful individual attention. 
Pritchard’s Scarlet Topper 
Also Called “Pritchard” 
Because of its fine quality and beautiful 
appearance, this tomato has become a very popu¬ 
lar market variety. Starting with stock seed sent 
us by the United States Department of Agricul¬ 
ture, we have been growing and selecting the 
seed here in the North in order to maintain the 
size, vigor and earliness of this variety. 
This is a very heavy bearer. The fruit is 
medium early, ripening right after Bonny Best. 
The flesh is very solid with few seed cavities and 
a fine red color all through. It is quite free from 
cracking. The quality is extra fine being mild 
and without acidity. 
The plants are robust but not of rank growth.

“After 40 years 1 can truly say there are no seeds like what 1 get from Harris'. They are surely good."
