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 unequaled. A 
prolific bearer and just the Melon for the small grower.

NETTED GEI, OR ROCKY FORD. 
Gems As They Are Familiarly Known on the Market. 
One of the best of our small early or basket Melons. Dur- 
ing the last few years they have largely increased in popularity 
on account of the excellent quality and flavor of this Melon as 
shipped from Rocky Ford (Colo.). Growers and seedsmen are 
undecided as to whether it is owing to any particular quality of 
soil or climate, or to persistent selection, that has brought the 
Rocky Ford type of Gem into such great prominence. We are 
inclined to the theory of close selection, and offer a selected 
stock of the true Rocky Ford type. The Melons are oval in 
shape, very uniform in size, with thick-meated green flesh of 
a melting and delicious flavor. Oz. 10c; % Ib. 20c; 1 Ib...60¢

Sure to ripen in our section. Just the watermelon for
