KLECSLET SWEETS. 



BALBERT HOSET. 



THE KLECKLEY SWEETS WATERMELON 



This famous "sweetest of all " watermelons has become very popular. Of superb luscious flavor; 

 very fine grained and tender meat. The fruits are of large size, of form shown in above illustration. 

 The rind is very thin and brittle, splitting ahead of the knife when cutting. Price, perpkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 

 J lb., 30c; lb., 85c, postpaid. 



THE H ALBERT HONEY WATERMELON 



This melon originated in Texas, and we are convinced that it is one of the best melons ever grown 

 for private use or nearby markets. The rind is thin, and will not hold for shipping any great distance. 

 As the name indicates, the beautiful crimson flesh of this melon is probably sweeter than any other 

 variety in cultivation, surpassing even the famous Kleckley Sweets. It has scarcely any pulp, and is 

 very melting. It is long, dark green, slightly ridged, blunt at both blossom and stem ends, and runs 

 from 15 to 30 inches in length. There are earlier melons, but they cannot compete with this variety 

 after it is ready for market. It uniformly demands the highest price. It is more productive than any 

 other variety we have seen, in all combining so many good points that we feel that it is a valuable 

 addition to our list of melons. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; £ lb., 40c; lb., $1.25, postpaid. 



BLACK BOULDER— The Great Shipping Watermelon 



For this grand new and distinct watermelon we are indebted to the late Aaron Paul. It is 

 enormously productive, reaching a mammoth size, with rich, dark green skin. It cuts equal to any 

 market melon we have ever eaten, and its shipping qualities are phenomenal, no other melon equaling 

 it in tough skin and rind. While it has rapidly become one of the leading melons for market, it is one 

 of the best "all round " melons in existence, and for the family garden it is also without a peer. Pkt., 

 5c; oz., 10c; £ lb., 30c; lb., $1.00, postpaid. 



GENUINE JOHNSON'S DIXIE WATERMELON 



The true Johnson's Dixie is a cross between the Kolb Gem and Old Fashioned Mountain Sweet, 



and surpasses the Kolb Gem in shipping qualities, and fully equals the Mountain Sweet, Kleckley and 

 Florida Favorite in superior eating quality, and is ten days earlier than any of them. Its great pro- 

 ductiveness is shown from the fact that it" frequently matures six to eight large melons to the vine. 

 Owing to the great popularity of this variety, another and much inferior melon is frequently substi- 

 tuted and sold for it. If you want quality and genuine seed, send to the introducers. Price, per pkt., 

 5c; oz., 10c; J lb.. 25c; lb., 65c. postpaid ; by express, lb., 55c; 5 lbs., $2.50. 



EXTRA SELECTED STOCK SEED. From picked melons. Oz., 20c; J lb., 40c; lb., $1.25, postpaid.
