MUSKMELONS. 



CURRIE'S SELECTED PAUL ROSE, or Petoskey — There- 

 suit of a cross between the 'well-known Osage and Net- 

 ted Gem. It combines the sweetness of the Osage with 

 the line netting of the Gem. Added to this, the firmness 

 of the rind, heavy texture of flesh and small seed cavity 

 make it a most desirable market growers' 

 Melon. Flesh salmon. Pkt. 5c; 

 oz. 15c; 1,4 lb. 50c; 1 lb $1.50

 early Melon for home use is 

 wanted nothing can equal this 

 superb sort. It is of medium 

 size, outside skin emerald 

 green and smooth. Ripens 

 clean through to the rind, 

 which is very thin. The flesh 

 is thick and juicy, of a nice 

 salmon color; for sweetness 

 and rich aromatic flavor it is 

 unequalled. A prolific bearer
