Chicago Warted Hubbard Squash
My crop of this variety grown for 1927 was grown in the mountains at a high altitude where the conditions are such that hardiness is developed even more than where grown far north. This very fine variety much resembles the Original Hubbard, except that it is larger and more covered with warts. Can be kept until late spring. The shell is very hard and dry. Price-(5c per pkt.) (15c per oz.) (40c per ¼ lb.) ($1.25 per lb.) ($1.10 per lb. In 10-lb. Lots) prepaid. (85c per lb. In 100-lb. Lots) not prepaid.
