George Oswald has charge of the warehouse but doubles here in 
harvesting Quality squash for seed. Rye Grass sowed at the last 
cultivation has already made a very heavy growth at the end of 
the field where the vines did not shade it. 
*569 QUALITY SQUASH: 103 days. Fruits are 
flattened heart-shaped and have a pronounced de- 
pression around the stem. Fruits average 6 to 7
