Early Northern Sweet 



(80 days) Growers in Northern localities have already found this melon 

 to be well adapted to their growing conditions. The extra early maturity 

 makes it ideal for short growing seasons. The size, 8 to 12 lbs., is con- 

 venient for home or market. Flesh is red and of good quality. Outside 

 color is dark green with a faint striping. If you have found your seasons 

 to be too short for melon growing in the past, we suggest that you 

 try Early Northern Sweet.
