DE F ENDS SQUASH
Sir; Received articlesprinted
in your newspaper_ I was
amused. I didn't claim it to be
the biggest ever in the world,
I claim it to be probably the
biggest in the world this year.
The sign at, tile show said
"largest at show". I have heard
stories of the bigoneat World's
Fair 1893. I would like proef
of it. I'm interested and I be.
lieve she or him is telling the
truth, but since this is only
a hobby for me, I work full--
time as Post Office window
clerk atRavenna, Ohio, and have
only eleven years to go before
I retire.
I know 3014/2 can be beaten
so she is. probably right in
saying she had one, but I still
like actual proo for my own
records. Please help me; I am
a city boy and not a farmer,
but I enjoy gr ing vegetables,
floweivs, trees, etc. This is my
hobby.
I had seven choice plants; pro.
duced twenty-six squashes that
weighed 5,682 lbs., also one
plant at 249, 265, and 301-1/2
lbs. I can do better and prob-
ably 400 or better one of
these years.

This one that was raised for

Squash. This is a special variety
of this and I created it, so it
will be registered as I wish.
The Toronto' Star named it
a Right Royal Squash, and I

who has a better right to name
