McIVER or WONDER- 

 FUL SUGAR. Combines 

 more valuable aud desirable 

 properties than any other 

 Watermelon I have grown, 

 being early, large, handsome, 

 a good shipper and good 

 keeper, of bright color and of 

 the very highest quality. 

 Growers are finding more 

 profit in it than in any other 

 sort, and there is always a 

 crop. The melons are very 

 large, oblong, uniformly large 

 and handsome, dark green, 

 broadly banded with white ; 

 fl-esh pale pink, crisp, and rich, 

 very sweet and juicy; and 

 what is especially remark- 

 able about it, every melon is 

 a good one. The heart or 

 center is very solid, the seed 

 rows being close to the rind. 

 The vines are vigorous and 

 wonderfully productive. It 

 is the best and sweetest water- 

 melon grown. Of this splendid variety., 1 offer seed of my own qrowing from my farm at Deal, N.
