(Green flesh.) A paragon of merit—in size, shape, netting, appear- 
ance, aroma, flavor, depth of flesh, smallness of seed cavity, cropping 
ability and shipping quality. It leaves nothing to be desired. 
Maule’s Model was bred from the Netted Gem and Pineapple, with a 
second hybridizing with one of its parents. This was followed by six 
years of careful selection. The result was a melon of wide local celeb- 
rity,and one which commanded exclusive prices in several great cities.

quality of flavor it is unexcelled by any variety in our list. The flesh 
is deep and firm, extending from the rind almost to centre of the melon. 
Maule’s Model bears transportation well, and can be carried to distant 
cities without injury. 
Maule’s Model has every good quality possessed by the Rocky Ford, 
with the added value of being more productive. It will show the effects 
of long continued drought, in common with all forms of vegetation, but 
does not seem to lose its strength while lying dormant under a scorch- 
ing sun. Upon the coming of rain it responds at once in the way of 
continued growth and abundance of fruit. 
Maule’s Model is just what is wanted for the home or market garden. 
Maule’s Model is now sold all over the United States under a half 
dozen different names. Send to headquarters for the genuine.

(Green flesh.) This GN 
splendid muskmelon is 
especially desirable for 
home use and nearby 
markets. Medium in ma- 
turity and size and of flat- 
tened, rounded shape. In 
flavor it is first class and 
its dense netting makes 
it almost sun and insect 
proof, this being a very 
great advantage where 
insects are troublesome [}¥ 
and melons liable to sun- 
scald. Is almost all meat, } 
seed cavity being small. 
The firm, green flesh is 
very Spicy. If you have 
found it difficult to grow

muskmelon.try Texas 
Cannonball, as it succeeds 
where other varieties fail.
