For making pies, custards, etc., they are superior to any of the squash or pumpkin family, possessing a dry, rich, pleasant flavor, equal to a good sweet potato. The Sweet Nut Squash is immensely productive. One of our lady cus- tomers in Ohio raised seventeen fine squashes on one hill. Another customer in New Jersey pulled eight full-grown, perfect squashes from a single vine. Bv mail, postpaid, pkt., 5c; oz., ]0c; %lb., 25c; lb., 75c.
