suit the most critical grower. Fruits are large, 
commonly 10 to 12 inches through, almost spherical; 
skin slightly roughened hard and brittle. The color 
both inside and outside is rich orange-red. The 
flesh is much thicker than other stocks of Boston 
Marrow. In and around Philadelphia Boston Marrow 
Squash is referred to as ““Pie Pumpkin.”’ You should 
try some of our strain for at least a part of your crop 
this year. We know you will be well satisfied.

riety is a little smaller than the Improved Hubbard 
and frequently a little earlier. Rind is golden orange 
and warted. Flesh is deep golden orange, fine grained; 
cooks very dry and has a rich flavor. Very prolific. 
A favorite with market gardeners and canners.
