PUMPKINS 
A packet will plant 5 or 6 hills; an ounce 20 hills. 
A few hills of pumpkins in the garden will give you the “‘makins”’ of many delicious pies in the fall and 
winter. If you grow your own you can get pumpkins of a quality that is impossible to match in the com- 
mercial canned product, and at very small cost. If your garden is small, a few hills among the sweet corn 
will not take up any extra ground. 
695 SMALL SUGAR. (also called ‘“‘New England Pie’’). The Favorite Pie Pumpkin. Small,

RHUBARB or Pieplant 
Rhubarb is very easy to produce from roots set out early in the spring. Space the roots 
4. ft. apart each way as they make a large vigorous growth. Plant the crowns one or two 
inches below the surface. For best results, use plenty of manure or fertilizer worked into 
the soil and keep moist. Some stalks may be pulled off and eaten the first summer from roots 
set in the spring. 
Thick Red Stalks—Superior Quality. This variety is now 
MACDONALD. generally recognized as the best red rhubarb obtainable. The stalks 
are very large and become a bright crimson color. They are tender, of excellent flavor 
and when cooked they make a beautiful deep pink sauce, that is much more attractive 
and delicious than the commercial product. The plant is high yielding, strong and robust, 
and produces the finest thick stalks. 
We offer roots only of this variety. Although MacDonald sometimes puts up a seed 
stalk the seeds do not develop, and it can be propagated only by dividing the roots. This 
non-seeding tendency means that edible stalks may be pulled nearly all summer, which 
is a great advantage over the older kinds. 
MacDonald is so much superior to other varieties in tenderness and fine mild flavor
