Virginia Mammoth Pumpkin 
es a We have never grown a 
365. Virginia Mammoth pumpkin that combines so 
many good qualities as the Virginia Mammoth. It not 
only grows to an immense size, but its keeping quality 
is most remarkable. We have kept them in fine con- 
dition for a whole year after they were taken from the 
field. It is undoubtedly the best and most productive 
pumpkin for southern growers, Oval shaped, the flesh 
thick, of fine flavor; makes as delicious pumpkin pie as 
anyone could wish, and is equally good for stock feed-
