TWO OF THE MOST USEFUL NOVELTIES. 



HEW GARDEN LEMON— Certainly one of the greatest novelties of 

 recent introduction. Resembles vine peach in manner of growth, 

 but is distinct in that the unripe fruit is striped with very dark 

 green spots, nearly black, and when ripe is not russeted like the 

 vine peach. Fruit of shape shown in illustration, a ti'ifle smaller 

 than vine peach. Has a finer flesh and most desirable acid flavor, 

 thus dispensing with sliced lemon, which is so important in put- 

 ting up the vine peach. Unexcelled for general canning purposes. 

 Cultivate similar to musk melons, in hills three feet apart each 

 way. It is such an enormous yielder that it will prove a very pro- 

 fitable crop to grow for market purposes, and will give unbounded 

 satisfaction for all family uses. True stock seed. Pkt. 10c, oz. 25c.

THE MANGO MELON, or VEGETABLE PEACH— Another splendid 

 novelty of late introduction, very striking in color, most wonder- 

 ful yielder. (See engraving from nature of a single plant in above 

 illustration.) Vines of each of the above are somewhat smaller 

 than the musk melon vine, though requiring same cultivation. 

 Fruit is about the size of an orange, orange shaped, and a bright 

 orange yellow color, somewhat russeted. For sweet pickles, pies 

 or preserving they are splendid. In the west and northwest, 

 where fruit is scarce, they are rapidly becoming popular, as they 

 are easily cultivated, enormously productive and can be used ia 

 every way as the peach, except that they are not quite as sweeW 

 You will certainly be pleased with it. Pkt. 10c, oz. 25c.
