WINTER SQUASH—Continued 
_ “TABLE QUEEN or ACORN—A min- 
lature squash growing about 7 inches 
long and 4 to 5 inches thick. Thin skin of 
dark green; early maturing. Desirable 
for home and market garden, also for 
- shipping. It is hard to secure well fixed 
types of this variety, therefore, we have 
made selections for many years and offer 
one of the best strains to be had. We 
have a large trade with market garden- 
ers who ask for our strain. Seed of 
our own growing.

grained, dry cooking squash. Medium

in length and 6 inches in diameter. It is 
claimed to be resistant to blight.

*GILL’S ALL-PURPOSE — Our 1947 
introduction and originated by Gill Bros. 
This grand new tomato is just like its 
name implies and is fine for all the main 
purposes. Field trials indicate that this 
variety produces its main crop as early 
as Select Earliana. Ideal for canning or 
juice, also splendid for home gardens and 
market gardens. It is a cross between 
Wasatch Beauty and the Pepper tomato 
and retains the best qualities of both. 
Outstanding for yield, appearance, qual- 
ity, packing, disease resistance and 
flavor. It produces heavy yields of large, 
uniform fruit on self-terminate vines. 
The fruit is bright red, possessing the 
solid, deep red interior of the Pepper 
tomato and with its fine flavor. On ac- 
count of its excellent flavor and solid 
meat it is ideal for slicing. Fruit free 
from large cores and of half globe shape 
as shown in the illustration. The blos- 
som ends of the fruit are ideal and free 
from so-called “monkey faces.” Vines 
vigorous and healthy and unusually re- 
sistant to disease. Fruit of large size, but 
not as large as the Wasatch Beauty. They 
pack well and stand shipment better 
than most sorts. We urge you to try this 
variety. Pkt. 15c; %4 oz. 80c; % oz. $1.50; 
oz. $2.35; %4 Ib. $6.50; Ib. $15.00.
