The New 

 Tom Watson 

 Watermelon 



The Tom Watson origi- 

 nated in Georgia, a State not- 

 ed for producing fine water- 

 melons, and has given great 

 satisfaction to all our cus- 

 tomers who planted it. It is 

 large, extra long, dark 

 green melon, as shown in our 

 photograph below. The aver- 

 age melon will weigh 35 to 

 40 pounds. The rind is thin, 

 but tough, and the flesh a 

 bright red color, of delicious, 

 sweet and satisfying flavor. 

 Its appearance and quality 

 strongly recommend it both 

 for home use and market.
