SQUASH, Special Blue Hubbard 
SPECIAL BLUE HUBBARD. 110 days. Similar 
to the original type of Hubbard Squash except that 
the fruits are blue-gray and grow to enormous size. 
The flesh is thick, of deep yellow color and of fine 
flavor and texture. This Squash is a very profitable 
farm crop, as there is always a great demand for 
these large fine Squash, especially on the eastern 
markets. We have an exceptional strain of this 
variety. 
LARGE TABLE QUEEN (ACORN). 80 days. Ex- 
tremely prolific; one of the most popular for home, 
market garden and shipping. Fruits pointed, acorn 
shaped, 51% inches long and 4 inches through, uni- 
formly ridged; skin smooth, dark green; shell thin; 
flesh light yellow, bakes dry and sweet. 


RAPE, Dwarf Essex 
Rape 
DWARF ESSEX. An extra quick-growing green 
forage crop for use any time during the fall, winter 
and spring. Rape can never become a pest, for it 
belongs to the same general family as the turnip and 
rutabaga and when planted under favorable con- 
ditions of soil and season, it makes an immense crop 
of green forage, Juicy and succulent, and often at a 
time of year when little green feed is available. 
Tri-State’s ‘Tomato 
Cuxtrure. Start indoors in early spring and transfer to the open ground when warm weather arrives. Leave 3 to 
4 feet between plants. 1 oz. produces about 3000 plants; 2 ozs. plants an acre. 
VALIANT. 65 days. Very early. Adapted to short- 
season areas and the early market. Plant sparse and 
open: fruits are of fine quality for an early variety, 
globe shaped and of bright scarlet color. Does 
especially well in New Jersey. 
MOTHER VALIANT. 65 days. This seed is the 
stock seed used to grow the following year’s crop of 
Valiant. Because it is so important as stock seed, the 
harvesting and processing receives extra careful 
handling at all times. Mother Valiant makes a fine 
crop of smooth, solid Tomatoes early in the season. 
The fruits weigh about 7 ounces each and are ma- 
tured before the severe heat comes in July. Try 
Mother Valiant. You'll be glad you did. 
STOKESDALE CERTIFIED. 67 days. A second- 
early scarlet variety maturing about a week earlier 
than Marglobe. Plant rather open in habit with 
medium heavy foliage. Fruits medium large, globe 
or semi-globe, smooth and well colored. | Recom- 
mended for both canners and shippers, particularly 
where the growing season is shorter than average. 
CERTIFIED PRITCHARD (SCARLET TOPPER). 
70 days. This variety is wilt resistant and_ pro- 
duces bright red, globe-shaped fruits. These fruits 
are medium sized and weigh 5 to 6 ounces. Well 
rounded on the shoulder and very firm. The plants 
of this Tomato are of the self-pruning or self-topping 
type and for that reason very well suited for planting 
in regions having heavy, fertile soils.
