stokes' Sugar Sweet Muskmelon (Doesn't it look it? J 



Would you like a Muskmelon, 

 every one ot which has that de- 

 licious, sweet flavor that every 

 melon lover thinks so much of? 

 We have it here in the Stokes' 

 New Sugar Sweet. I believe, 

 without any exaggeration, they 

 are the sweetest and most de- 

 licious-flavored melon that has 

 ever been offered to the trade. 

 The vine is very strong and per- 

 fectly blight-proof, holding up 

 green and strong until all the 

 melons are ripened. It is nicely 

 netted, flesh thick and dark 

 green, with tendency toward 

 pinkish hue near the seed ca\ - 

 ity ; the seeds are very small 

 and few. The melon is slightly 

 oblong and very uniform in size, 

 averaging about 6 inches in di- 

 ameter and 7 inches in length. 

 Its great unitormity makes it a 

 great c7-ate melon for market, 

 packing evenly, of exact si^e 

 markings. I cannot recommend 

 this Stokes' Sugar Sweet Musk- 

 melon too highly, ei'tiier for 

 home use or¥or marke/ Price,
