Duke Jones Watermelon, 



In shape the " Duke Jones " resembles very closely the Kolb Gem. The rind is darker green in color with indis- 

 tinct irregular stripes of dark and light green alternating, the general appearance is that it is a dark green melon. 

 It averages very larjre in size, comparatively no small melons, is very productive, it is also very early in maturing- 

 ripe mrlons being plucked from the vine just 67 days from date of planting. Its chief claim for popularity is its 

 delicious flavor. The flesh is crisp and very sweet, firm but not tough, no hard middles, but ripens evenly through- 

 out, flesh deep crimson in color. Most very large melons are coarse, tough and poorly flavored. The " Duke Jones" 

 is the largest of melons but has no superior in its delicious flavor.

Baltimore Nutmeg 

 Canteloupe. 



Well known and very popular with Market 

 Gardeners and Truckers around Baltimore. 

 It well d< 'serves the praise it has received. It 

 is of good size and shape, of rich flavor and a 

 splendid shipper. Our seed is from select 

 stock. 



This favorite and well known Canteloupe, 

 introduced some years ago, is now a leading 

 sort all over the country, and cata'ogued by 

 all the principal Seedsmen. It is early, of good 

 size and shape, of rich flavor, and as a shipper 

 has no superior. In passing through the field 

 where our seed was growing the past summer 

 we were surpris-d at the uniformity in the 

 shape and size of the fruit.

Anne Arundel Canteloupe. 



This handsome melon has for several years been a special 

 favorite with a number of the leading growers of Anne Arundel 

 County, Md. Knowing its value we secured the stock and intro- 

 duced it two yeai s ago. Tt has met every promise we made for it 

 upon its introduction. One grower says: "It is in all respects 

 one of the best of Melons.'" Another says : 



" Portsmouth, Ya., Oct. 28, '93. 



Dear Sirs: —The Anne Arundel Canteloupe was perfectly satis- 

 factory, just what it is claimed to be; it proved to be early, of 

 good size, and gave me a large yield." 



It is very large, nearly round, deeply netted and of good flavor. 

 A wage?) load of them at once attracts the buyer's attention, and 

 when piled up on a market stall they are irresistik le. No large 

 grower's stock is complete without this superb melon.
