R THE GAIRDEH - F
AFRICAN PIPE GOURD
A luxuriant, rapid-growing annual
climber, adaptable to all purposes for
which climbing plants are used ; and be-
sides, it produces the Ornamental Gourds
from which are made the African Cala-
bash pipes now so popular on account of
their lightness, grace and meerschaum
coloring qualities.
When grown for the production of Pipe
Gourds, the vines are usually allowed to
grow on the ground like Cucumbers,
Pumpkins, etc., so that the fruits in place
of hanging down and growing straight,
will take their natural pipe curve; though
if grown on trellis, the Gourds may be
shaped by tying up with cheese cloth or
by using perforated boards with pegs.
Directions for growing, curing and mak-
ing pipes from these Gourds are sent with
every package of seed. .See cut.) Pkt. ISc.
