. Seed annual. Nursery stock Kansas Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Cereal grasses Catalogs; Trees Seedlings Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs Seeds. The squash is one of the most nutritious and valuable of all garden veget- ables. The summer varieties come to the table early in the season and are very palatable, while the winter sort can be had in perfection from August until the summer varieties are again in condition. Few farmers appre- ciate the value of the winter squash; as food for stock, we think an acre of squash, costing do more to cul- tivate and much less to secure, will give twice as much feed available for feeding stock as an acre of corn, anc/we strongly urge our readers tcyrry a ''patch" for this purpose. y Sibley Squash—This squash is entirely original and distinct. The shell is pale green in color: very hard and flinty, being at the same time so very thin and smooth as to occasion the least possible waste im baking. The flesh is solid, thick, a vivid brilliant orange in color, and is possessed of rare edible qualities. It ripens its fruit simultaneously with the Hubbard though the quali- ty Is considerably improved bv being housed a few weeks. Large pkt 5c; oz 106; 1-4 lb 20c; lb 60c. \/Hubbard—This is a superior variety of the best winter squash known, flesh bright orange yellow, fine grained, very dry, sweet and rich flavored, keeps per- fectly good throughout the winter, boils or bakes ex- ceedingly dry,and by many is esteemed to be as good baked as the sweet potato. "We have taken the utmost pains with this sort and can recommend our stock as in all probabily the best in the country, and think our customers can plant it in confidence.
