Our eighty-fourth anniversary. Gregory’s seeds have been planted in all sections of the world. 
The Hubbard Squash, one of our earliest introductions, is still going strong and is listed by all lead¬ 
ing seedsmen of the country. 
The Delicious, another introduction, was sent out many years later and is noted for its fine grain 
and superior quality. 
Another of our introductions is the Symmes Blue Hubbard. This is now the leading variety grown 
by gardeners throughout the New England States. 
It is estimated there were 20,000 tons of squash produced in Massachusetts this year. One farmer 
in New Hampshire grew something like 700 tons. A farmer in Massachusetts planted 50 acres. The 
writer had the pleasure of calling upon both parties and can say he never saw a handsomer sight and 
never before saw so many squash in one pile. 
In Maine, at an experimental farm, about 30 samples of Tomatoes were planted, comprising twelve 
plants each. Early yields up to August 17, the Gregory Tomato outyielded all others, being first in rank 
on the entire list. Yield was 13 lbs., 14 oz. The next nearest was 12 lbs., 3 oz. 
We are justly proud of these introductions. There are many excellent varieties in this list that are 
worthy of your consideration. We call your attention to the following strains: 
Crosby Egyptian Beet; Hutchinson Carrot; Commodore Bean, 10-Inch, New Kidney Wax, Sure 
Crop or Bountiful Wax, and Rust-Proof Horticultural Shell; Copenhagen Market Cabbage and Hollander 
Short-Stem Danish; Snowball Cauliflower; Golden Plume Celery; Extra Early Golden Market Corn, and 
Whipple’s Giant Golden; White Big Boston Lettuce; Abbott’s Improved Hollow Crowned Parsnip; 
Laxton’s Progress Pea, Early Morn, Gregory’s Excelsior and Wyoming Wonder; Gregory Tomato, 
Rutgers and New Cardinal. 
We have made our prices very reasonable for high quality stocks and trust we may have a share of 
your patronage. These prices will be maintained as long as stocks last, but are subject to change with¬ 
out notice. 
Yours for a prosperous season, 
J. J. H. GREGORY & SON, 
Edgar Gregory, Prop.
