811 Yankee Hybrid Pkt., 15c; % oz., 35c; 0z., 65c; % Ib., $1.80 
(50 days.) (All-America Award.) It is the earliest of all Squash, and actually produced 
twice as many fruits on the first picking as the next best kind, but the total yield was 
greater. They are a true straight neck type, with a clear waxy appearance that makes 
them very attractive. 
803 Early Yellow Prolific Pkt., 10c; 02z., 30c; %4 1b., 80c; Y% Ib., $1.15 
(50 days.) (All-America Winner.) A bush type, probably the most prolific of the yel- 
low summer Squashes. Frequently yields a dozen or more fruits per plant over the entire 
season. Fruits straight, smooth, of an appetizing cream color when best for market. 
Firm and useable when only a few inches long. 
801 Caserta Pkt., 15c; 0z., 50c; % 1b., $1.25; Y 1b., $1.75 
(50 days.) Extra early, prolific Cocozelle Squash. It ripens as early as any variety and 
it yields heavily all through the season. The coloring is unusual, light glossy green, 
mottled with darker spots. We think Caserta’s flavor is far superior to most yellow 
summer Squashes. Profitable for roadside stands and fine for the home garden.
