' 3 NEW WINTER PINEAPPLE-^\ 

 (See Cut.)— This variety represents a 

 class of Musk Melons that are likely to 

 prove of much value. The color of the 

 flesh is a deep lemon-yellow and the 

 outer skin is dark green, marked with 

 yellow. The quality is delicious, having 

 a rich, spicy flavor that is not possessed 

 by any other fruit. All of this class of 

 melons have much' thicker and finer 

 flesh than ordinary Musk melons, hence 

 their long keeping qualities. They very 

 rarely ripen on the 'vines, so the Melons 

 must be picked off in the fall and put in 

 some cool place, where, however, there 

 isno'danger of freezing, until they are 

 wanted. It is usually necessary to place 

 them in a warm room for three or four 

 days before using, so as to ripen them 

 up thoroughly. Handled in this way 

 they can be had for use all winter. Do 

 not fail to order this variety. Pkt. 5c.
