Three Good Muskmelons. 
EARLY IMPROVED CHRISTIANA.—This 
— 
GOLDEN SUPERB MUSKMELON.—We 
sf : met with a genuine 
and a great surprise, 
when “testing “this 
variety, finding it to 
embrace very many 
“wa excellent qualities, 
mea and in 1883, cata- 
“we logued it forthe first 
time. Demand 
was so great as to 
soon exhaust our 
supply. 
In flavor especi- 
ally, it excels almost every variety in cultivation, 
and none, we think, surpass it. Resembling the 
Jenny Lind in shape, except in not being so flat- 
tened at the ends, it grows fully 2 to 3 times as large, 
is more netted, and although the melons are larger 
it is very nearly, if not quite as productive. Ripens 
a little later. if you want to raise as good mel- 
ons as you ever ate, rich, sugary and fairly 
melting in the mouth, plant the Superb. You 
will like them. Pkt.,5cts.; oz.; 15 cts.; 14 Ib., 40 
cts.; Ib., $1.25. 
MAULE’S PRIZE JENNY LIND. — It is 
: astonishing that 
this, the most 
delicious 
small melon, 
is so little 
Mknown outside 
mof the State of 
New Jersey. 
There it is more 
largely grown 
than any other 
=e variety and 
thousands upon thousands of baskets are annually 
shipped to the New York and Philadelphia markets, 
where they always meet with ready sale. Our 
strain of this popular variety has been carefully 
selected for years back until now we do not think 
it can be surpassed, if equalled. Itis not only the 
earliest of all the green-fieshed sorts, but one of 
the sweetest and most delicious melons in 
cultivation. Excellent for shipping. It is small 
in size, is slightly ribbed, skin thickly netted and 
thin.  PKt., 5 cts.; oz., 10 ets.; 14 Ib., 25 ets.; Ib., 90 cts. 
is a inost popular early 
in New York State, 
being 10 days earlier 
than the Nutmeg. 
Many market growers 
having once planted it, 
always continue to do 
so, pronouncing it just 
the sort for early 
market on account of 
its extreme earliness. 
Try it. Pkt.,5cts.; oz., 
15 ets.; 4 lb., 40 cts.;

THE TWO MOST EXCELLENT IMPOR- 
TED MELONS.

melons toa vine. Shape, round; skin, light, gray- 
ish green; flesh, scarlet and very thick; flawor,
