Stokes Seed Farms Qdmtany, Moorestown, New Jersey 



EEM-FLESHED MUSKMELONS 



Gathering melons on one of the farms of the John Repp Estate, one of the largest sources of food supply for the eastern markets. 



S. S. Rocky Ford 



This melon is the highest development of the old Rocky Ford Cantaloup. It has been bred by our grower to 

 resist disease and blight. The surface is well netted, assuring it of its shipping qualities. The flesh is light green, 

 the seed-cavity small and the flavor delicious. Good seed in melon-growing is a large factor in the final success 

 of a crop. S. S. Rocky Ford is, we believe, the melon for large growers to use, particularly where long-distance 

 shipping is necessary. The size is that of a standard crating melon, and where a green-fleshed variety of this 

 type is desired, S. S. Rocky Ford is what you want. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 25 cts., V^lb. 60 cts., lb. $2. 



Stokes' Sugar-Sweet (Early) 



Phenomenal reports from all sections prove that this melon is one of the best money-makers in the business. 

 It is not only larger and matures earlier than S. S. Rocky Ford, but in many local markets will bring a considerably 

 better price. It is, however, not a crating melon and should not be purchased with that in view. As a home- 

 garden sort, Stokes' Sugar-Sweet is one of the best we have ever offered. Without reserve we can say it is the 

 best-flavored melon in existence. The seed is grown in New Jersey under the most favorable conditions, and 

 since its introduction a few years ago it has become a favorite with a large majority of our customers. The flesh 

 is a beautiful light green, with golden lining next to the seed-cavity. If you have not already had a trial of this 

 melon in your garden, do not fail to include it in your list this year. You will never regret it. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 

 25 cts., y 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $2. 



«• Jenny Lind 



A splendid-quality, small, flat melon. It has long been popular in the Philadelphia markets. The fruits are 

 deeply ribbed; flesh green and exceedingly sweet. It ripens very early and, on account of its size, is very desirable 

 as a table melon. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., V^ib. 45 cts., lb. $1.50.
