BUTTERNUT SQUASH 
A new favorite in New England 
774 Butternut (New) 
Attractive Small Winter Squash—Fine Quality 
Only recently introduced but already com- 
manding premium prices on many markets, 
Butternut is fast becoming one of the most 
popular winter squash in the East. 
Many desirable features make it a favorite 
with growers and customers alike—its long, 
distinctive shape; its yellow dry, sweet flesh; its 
excellent quality. The tiny seed cavity at the 
end means that this squash is practically 100% 
meat, as shown in the photo. Butternut matures 
early and bears big crops for late summer and 
early fall sale. Some growers report that it will 
succeed even on poorer soils and it seems at least 
partially resistant to injury by insects. See 
prices on preceding page. 
SQUASH 
M4 lb. of seed will plant about 100 hills; 5 to 6 Ibs. of seed per acre. 
825 Yankee Hybrid 
Enormous Early Yields 
The remarkable earliness and vigor of this 
hybrid have won it top place with many grow- 
ers. It is not only the first to ripen but yields 
more on the early pickings and more altogether 
throughout the season. 
The squash are of the finest type, extremely 
uniform and with straight, thick necks. The 
skin is slightly roughened and of a glowing waxy 
yellow color that makes them very attractive. 
We offer only first generation hybrid seed, 
grown directly from pure line inbreds. This is a 
difficult process but is essential to get the 
maximum earliness, vigor and uniformity. See 
prices below. 
785 Early Yellow Prolific 
Uniform and Attractive 
This is now definitely established as one of the 
finest and most widely grown varieties. It is a 
tremendous improvement over the old Giant 
Straightneck squash, and the dwarf vines bear 
great crops of beautiful smooth fruit. These 
squash are very uniform for shape and size and 
are remarkable for their smooth skin and clear 
bright yellow color, having no trace of green 
even when very young. 
We now produce this seed here on our own 
farm and can assure our customers that no 
better stock of this variety can be obtained. See 
prices below. 
795 Harris’ Improved Cocozelle 
Long Slender Straight Fruit 
This is the long, slender, straight type of 
Cocozelle which critical squash growers have 
long been looking for. Developed and grown 
entirely by us on our own farm, this new strain 
will produce longer, more slender and more uni- 
form fruits than any other strain of Italian 
Vegetable Marrow or Cocozelle, and makes a 
very fancy pack. The squash are even through- 
out the length and carry the desired dark green 
base color with stripes of lighter green. The 
plants are of the true bush type and very pro- 
lific. Be sure to grow this new kind. See prices 
below.
