Cocoanut Squash
A magnificent little squash for table use, very prolific, yielding from six to a dozen to the vine. In beauty it excels every variety of the Squash family; indeed, specimens very naturally find a place on the mantel-place as ornaments to the parlor. The color is an admixture of cream and orange, while the bottom over a circle of two or three inches in diameter is of a rich grass green. The flesh is fine-grained, sweet and very solid, (the squash being remarkably heavy for its size,) and the quality excellent, closely resembling Canada Crookneck in flavor, but in every way much superior. There is one capital fact true of it which is well worthy the attention of all who have trouble in raising squashes, viz.: that the Cocoanut will give a crop when all the standard sorts fail. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; lb., mail, $2.50
