ALNEER SEED COMPANY—Established 1883. 
The very mention of the word “pumpkin” ; ries» Sha “ 
reminds one of the sweet, delicious flavor of Z Li 
pie. Fruits may be used in the fall or stored 
in a dry, moderately warm place for use 
during the winter; the flesh may also be 
canned. Some varieties of winter squashes, especially 
Boston Marrow, commonly known as the Basket Pump- 
kin, are generally grown for pumpkin pie instead of the 
true pumpkins. The best pumpkin for general use 
whether in the home garden, market garden or roadside 
sales is Small Sugar.
