Blue Hubbard 
Harris’ Selected Strain 
This is the large, rugged strain that pro- 
duces big yields that bring top prices. Being 
the result of years of close breeding, it is con- 
sidered the finest, purest stock grown. 
Harris’ Blue Hubbard can be relied on to 
produce immense yields of large true type 
squash. The seed we sell is all of our own 
growing. 
Although this was originally strictly a New 
England variety, the fine quality, enormous 
yields and excellent keeping quality have 
made this a most popular kind throughout 
the East. i

As grown for seed on our North Farm 






“We had the best piece of Blue Hubbard from your strain we ever had.’ P. S. Goring, Hudson, N. H. Feb. 29, 1940. 
“TI can’t help telling you about the success I had with the Quality Squash I grew last year. I sold all I had right on the 
farm at double the going price of squash and customers came back for more. It is the best squash I ever tasted.”’ 
Leonard F. Dudley, Newport, N. H. May 16, 1940. 
Warren Squash—Improved Essex Hybrid (New England Strain) 
This fine old New England squash has become popular in many sections which formerly 
would not use ‘“‘orange or red”’ squash. Our stock of this type has proved more than satisfactory. 
The squash are early, medium size, very uniform in shape and heavily warted. We have bred 
this strain with a well formed but not too prominent “‘button.”’ The flesh is fine grained, extra thick 
and the color a beautiful deep orange red. Seed of our own growing. See prices below.
