GERMAN— Wasser-Melone.

 hills. Watermelons require a rich, sandy 

 soil for best development. Cultivate the

 hills should be eight to ten feet apart. 



Triumph Watermelon. 



This new melon, as a market sort and for 

 shipment, is the best we have ever intro- 

 duced. It is very prolific, very early, and 

 of uniformly large size. It is a cross be- 

 tween the Duke Jones and Kolb Gem; has 

 the tine, hi'.ndsome appearance of the for- 

 mer and the fine shipping qualities of the 

 latter. The rind, like the Duke Jones, is 

 of dark green color, the seed exactly the 

 same color as that of the Kolb (Jem. The 

 average size of the melon is very large.

Mclver's Sugar Watermeloi. 



In outward appearance it somewhat re- 

 sembles the old Rattlesnake. The quality, 

 however, is so much superior that it is an 

 injustice to mention the Rattlesaake en 

 the same page with it. as it even surpasses 

 such excellent varieties as Florida Fav 

 orite and Icing. It is also an extremelv 

 productive and hardr varietv.

Lord Baltimore 



WATERMELON. 



We wish to call special attention to this 

 splendid and delicious melon. It is early, 

 very large, of oblong shape, and the flesh 

 is of handsome crimson color, deliciously 

 sweet, and extending close up to the rind. 

 It has a thin, hard rind, beautifully mot- 

 tled light and dark green. Its perfect 

 shape, faultless color, fine texture and ex- 

 cellent flavor combine to make it one of 

 the very best melons that grows. It is a 

 good shipper, and beats all others as a 

 seller.

DUKE JONES WATERMELON. 



In shape the "Duke Jones" resembles very closely the Kolb 

 Gem. The rind is darker green in color, with indistinct, irregu- 

 lar stripes of dark and light green alternating; in genenil ap 

 pearance it is a dark gr^-en melon. It averages very large In 

 size, comparatively no small melons; is very productive; it Is 

 also very early in maturing, ripe melons being plucked from 

 the vine just 67 days from the date of planting. Its chief claim 

 for popularity is its delicious flavor. The flesli is crisp and vpry 

 sweet, firm, but not too tough, no hard middles, but ripens 

 evenly throughout; flesh deep crimson in color. The "Duke 

 Jones" Is the largest of melons, but has no superior in Its de- 

 licious flavor.
