COLE’S EARLY—The earliest and Sweetest Watermelon. 
Ripens with us during August. By far the best Water- 
melon for the Northern States, where the seasons are 
usually too short for any other sort. The Melons are 
a fair size, generally measuring about 12 inches long. 
The flesh is a beautiful bright red color, crisp and free 
from aJl stringiness, and very solid, with a small Seed 
cavity; is deliciously sweet and refreshing. Pkt. 5c;
