Baby Hubbard or Kitchenette Hubbard
A small type of Hubbard of very uniform size and shape and which sets more fruit than the old Hubbard. They average about 6 to 8 pounds each. On account of their small size and heavy weight they are especially suited for crating. Their size is also better adapted to the average retail sale. We believe that this new type Hubbard will prove a splendid acquisition for market gardeners. Pkt., 15c; oz., 25c; ¼ lb., 50c; lb., $1.85.

Gill's Golden Delicious
We take much pride in offering this remarkable squash of our own origin and we believe it is destined to become very popular for canneries, market gardeners and home gardens. We have never grown a squash with such high quality as this and it has a very attractive appearance. It is the result of a cross between Boston Marrow and Delicious and retains the high quality of the Delicious and the beautiful color of Boston Marrow. The skin is a bright reddish-orange and the flesh is rich golden orange. The flesh is 2 to 3 inches thick and there is no green zone near the rind. It cooks extra dry, fine grained and sweet. Many of our friends say “It is better than a sweet potato.” the skin is thin, without a hard shell but it is a fine keeper for winter use. On account of its high quality and attractive color it has created a sensation with canners and those who tested it claim it has the highest starch content of any variety they have tried. Besides all its other fine qualities it is the finest squash for pies. It grows very vigorous and produces heavy crops. It is not fully fixed for color. Pkt., 20c; oz., 40c; ¼ lb., $1.25; lb., $3.75
