Excerpt from Transactions of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, for the Year 1877, Vol. 1 Different varieties of squashes and pumpkins seem to come from different countries, yet, with a few exceptions of recent introduction, we know very little about their origin. Prof. Asa Gray, says The pumpkin was cultivated by the North American Indians, be fore the coming of the whites. He also says: The orange and egg gourd grows wild in Texas, and is probably the original of all this group. It seems to me that the pumpkin might have originated from the gourd, and the squash from the pumpkin. The fact that the gourd is more vigorous and productive than the pumpkin, and that the pumpkin is more vigorous than the squash, seems to indicate this order of improvement. It is a well established fact that the farther from the original an animal or plant is carried by domestication and improvement, the less vigor it has, and certainly our best squashes have less constitution and vigor than the pumpkin, and' the pump kin less than the wild gourd.
