STOKES HALES BEST 



A Very Reliable Strain. 



Days to maturity, 75. There was more Hales Best planted 

 in the U. S. than all other varieties of cantaloup com- 

 bined. It is the earliest maturing melon of importance, 

 developing fruits ten days ahead of competing sorts. It 

 will produce, with great uniformity, melons 6 to 7 inches 

 in length. The flesh is thick and of a deep orange color. 

 It is as disease-resistant as any strain now in general use.

HEARTS OF GOLD 



Recommended for roadside market sale. 



Days to maturity, 85. In size this melon is about one- 

 fourth larger than the old Rocky Ford type. It combines 

 the golden flesh of Osage with the heavy netting and thin 

 rind of the Netted Gem. Hearts of Gold has shown a 

 decided resistance to rust. This stock is very highly 

 recommended. Price: Pkt. 5c, Oz. 15c, lb. 25c, Lb. 

 90c, 5 lbs. or over @ 80c per lb. Postpaid. 



HONEY ROCK (New) 



Early. Extremely delicious. An outstanding 

 introduction. 



Days to maturity, 80. This very desirable new musk- 

 melon deserves the immediate attention of all growers. 

 It is unusually handsome in appearance, being of medium 

 size, is round as a ball, - and is covered with heavy, 

 coarse netting. The deep orange-colored flesh is ex- 

 tremely thick. The high flavor is uniformly sweet, a 

 feature which does not hold for many varieties. The 

 exterior color of the melon is very light green, turning 

 when ripe to a light, golden yellow. It will ripen early, 

 and it is very productive. We predict an important 

 future for Honey Rock. 



Price: Pkt. 10c, Oz. 20c, i/4 lb. 45c, Lb. $1.50, 5 lbs. or 

 over @ $1.40 per lb. Postpaid.
