The Salt Lake Tribune. Monday, June 27. 1877 1 5 Squash varieties popular head and legs to dark greenish green with black head and legs. They are up to inch long Egg clusters are shiny brick red and are found on the leaves. The squash bug is controlled by dusting the crown of the plant with Sevtn (Carbaryl).

This dusting needs to be done early in the season before the runners are more than a foot long. Generally one application of dust is sufficient if applied before the adult lays its eggs Stl Hr IOJlIl llc.it cling peach hul os to sen dessert dishes with a sprinkling of crushed peanut brittle The heat melts the candy powder and you have a rielu ions topping ill nir' lla ,4 '--il? I -I a I it Mrs. Steadman -r. Mrs. Fisher The small size makes them desirable since the entire squash can be baked and used by a small family at one meal Small Variety My favorite small variety is the butternut.

This variety is shaped like a bell and is usually about three to four pounds in size. It has excellent quality in the early fall. It keeps well in storage, but its quality disintegrates after it is stored for an extended time. Contrary to popular belief, the winter squash varieties make better pumpkin pies than most of the pumpkin varieties. The Connecticut field pumpkin is an exception to this rule, but this variety is seldom grown in this area.

In areas where large quantities of squash and pumpkins are processed for pies, this variety of pumpkin and several winter squashes are used and blended together to make pumpkin pie filling Everyone likes a piece of pumpkin pie the fall or winter months. The history of this type of vegetable lists it as an American origin. Botanists are not sure that all varieties originated on the American continents, and there is really no way to tell for sure. Easy to Grow I stated earlier that they are easy to grow. They do require a long growing season except for the summer squash varieties.

Any good well drained soil will produce satisfactory yields They are usually planted in hills four by four or four by five feet apart in rows four to five feet apart. Home gardeners and others frequently become confused because many blossoms do not set fruit. They do not understand that the male and female parts are in separate flowers. The male flowers usually predominate and no fruit is set until female blooms form. Bees are also necessary to pollinate the female bloom.

Without bees no fruit will set. Insect pests attacking the squash plants are the squash bug and squash vine borer. Only the squash bug seems to be a problem in our immediate areas. The adult is a brownish flat back stink bug. It is inch long Nymphs vary from bright green with red Home Equity Loans Weddings By Robert L.

Hassell Horticultural Agent. Utah State University, Extension Service Squash is not considered one of the most important vegetables, and yet it is found in most gardens. Pumpkins and squash are very similar in growth and are usually consi- dered together. Pumpkins are grown for Halloween, and most children associate this vegetable with this holiday. The pumpkin used here, i however, is usually not used for any other purpose than for jack-o-lantems.

It seems to be a waste of a good product by I many, yet the quality is usual-1 ly too poor to be used for pies or for baking. The squash is quite diferent from the jack-o-lantem pumpkin however, and it has many uses and is used quite extensively today. The zucchini types are a summer squash which is becoming more popular each year. It is very easy to grow, and most gardeners are delighted with the large yields of edible squash from this plant. Many people are learning to use this vegetable in salads, boiling it in soups or as the main vegetable; or slicing it, dipping it in egg and cracker crumbs and frying it.

Likes It Fried I personally like it fried better than the other methods. It is interesting to note that this squash is harvested when the fruit is very immature, or it can be harvested several days later and still be in top quality. Only when the seed cavity is filled with large seeds is this summer squash considered too old to use. There are several varieties of summer squash to choose from. One new one is an all-American selection for 1977 called Scallopini hybrid.

This is a green scallop type and is considered a better summer squash Lots of Space Winter squash require a great deal of space in the garden. The vines are often 10 to 20 feet long with large leaves. The hubbard types are the most popular in the home garden. The big problem of growing this vegetable is the large size of the fruit. Somne fruits weight from 10 top 30 pounds.

Super markets usually sell this vegetable in small pieces at a certain price per pound. This type is usually baked and served with butter. The banana type is also very popular as a winter vegetable. There are also several small winter squash varieties which are becoming very popular. Low Bank Rates up to 10 Years For your Family Needs Flome Improvements, Education.
