The New Strawberry Melon. 



NEW STRAWBERRY 

 MUSK MELON 



Flavor Like That of a Strawberry. 



This graiul .Melon was originated by plant- 

 ing tlie most luseious variety of strawberries 

 between every two rows ot a New Hybrid 

 Musk Melon. It grows to be a desirable mar- 

 ket size; the fruits weigh from 6 to S pounds 

 each. Its outside appearance compares fav- 

 orably with the green nutmeg of old, turning 

 to a yellowish hue, as it were, over night, 

 when fully ripened. Its smooth, deep flesh 

 is of an attractive orange-red color, particu- 

 larly .soft and meUing, and with that excep- 

 tionally delicious strawberry flavor leaves 

 nothing more to be desired in a Musk Melon. 

 Price, choicest seed of mv own growing, 

 Pkt. lOc. ; oz. 20c.; 2 oz. '35c.; 1 lb. 60c.; 

 J lb. $1.10; lb. $3.00.
