SQUASH 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 yel- 
Icw, rather smooth-skinned summer Squash, 
with the straight neck now so popular with 
both private and commercial gardeners. The 
flesh is of splendid quality and fine flavor. 
In our trials this variety of straightneck Squash 
was earlier and bore more fruit than any other 
kind.

type plants that don’t spread; excellent for the 
home garden. The fruits are smooth, straight,

long. Early, have crops of very high quality.

Mammoth Summer Crookneck. The 
largest and one of the earliest of the crook- 
neck summer squashes. Vines are of bush 
habit, larger and more vigorous than Summer 
Crookneck. When mature, the fruits are often 
1% 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.

Yankee Hybrid Squash. All-America Win- 
ner, 1941. This new Squash showed up particu- 
larly well in our trials again last summer. It 
was as early as any other kind and certainly a 
heavier bearer. The fruits are straight, light 
yellow in color, of splendid appearance and 
very high quality. A good kind for either the 
home garden or for market.

vored winter Squash. A new kind, medium 
small, averaging 3 to 5 Ibs. Dark green with

ally thick, dry, sweet and never stringy. Don’t

ITALIAN VEGETABLE 

Giant Summer Crookneck 
Delicious. Tops for Quality. The meat is 
so dry and fine grained that it greatly re- 
sembles that of a good sweet potato. Delicious 
does not grow as large as Hubbard, usually 
weighing from 5 to 10 Ibs., but is very heavy, 
as the orange-colored flesh is so thick that 
there is but very little seed cavity in the cen- 
ter. A splendid winter keeper and one you 
should grow in the garden. ;

ularly good for home garden and for roadside 
stands. The fruit is of medium size, weighing

Table Queen 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 a 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.

MARROW (COCOZELLE) 
(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 qualities 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 some 
as asparagus. 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.
