New GreeBi-Flestied Osage Muskmelon. 



This splendid new and distinct muskmelon offered last season for the first time represents several 

 years' selection made by Chauncey P. Coy, the largest and most experienced grower of melons in the 



world. With his thorough knowl- 

 edge of all varieties, the originator 

 says: "It is superior to any other 

 green-fleshed melon now known." 

 This strong claim has been fully 

 verified by hundreds of our customers 

 who grew it the past season. See 

 testimonials, page 51. It is very 

 hardy and prolific, in size and shape, 

 like the Red-Fleshed Osage, but 

 much more handsomely netted and 

 colored on the outside skin, while 

 its flesh is a beautiful pea-green and 

 of most delicious quality Pkt., loc; 

 oz., 30c.; % lb., $1.00; lb., I3.00
