NEW NATIONAL. 
The reason that this fine, new watermelon received the name of Na- 
tional was because of its proven ability to flourish almost anywhere, 
even in districts where watermelons are not usually grown. 
The National is a watermelon of medium to large size and of 
high table quality. It is of Southern origin, but thrives well in the

The rind is comparatively thin, but remarkably 
tough and not disposed to crack. I recommend 
Iceberg for shipment to distant markets. The 
excellence of Kolb’s Gem, especially as a profitable 
Shipper, is so well known that Iceberg should at 
once be in very wide demand for commercial pur- 
poses. Pkt., 5 ets.; oz., 10 cts.; 14 lb., 20 ets.; Ib., 50¢. 
CAROLINA BRADFORD. 
A splendid melon for home use, maturing in about 
85 days. It is quite like the famous old Joe Johnson 
in shape and markings. It is a large, long melon, 
of dark green color, with darker stripes. The red 
| flesh is sweet and melting, and of excellent texture. 
The seeds are white. It has a strong vine and is 
very productive,and isin high esteem where known. 
It is better adapted to home use than to market,

North. In shape it is oblong. The outside color is pale, with dark 
markings, resembling Seminole, but with markings more distinct. 
The flesh is brilliant red in color, and remarkably solid; so solid, in 
|fact, that a 40-pound National watermelon does not appear to be 
} much larger than a Seminole weighing only 25 pounds. The flavor is 
delicious, and the flesh is entirely stringless. The rind, though thin, is 
very tough, insuring good shipping qualities.

ALABAMA SWEET. 
Alabama Sweet is a dark green melon with light seeds. It is first- 
class for Shipping purposes. It is of good size, though not ungainly like 
Triumph. Its flavor is simply delicious, and its outside appearance is 
attractive. Its size and shape are such as to make it a first-rate business 
melon. It is to be emphatically recommended for the South, where it 
has been fully tested; and I am confident that it will be a prize winner 
in the North, in all melon growing sections. 
Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 144 pound, 25 cents; pound, 75 cents.
