/Baltimore Nutmeg Cantaloupe. 



THE cut is from a photograph taken from a sample lot of 

 Baltimore JVutineg- Cantaloupes gathered from the field 

 where our seed was grown, and is a fair representation of 

 the whole crop. The stock seed of this splendid melon was 

 secured from a trucker who enjoys the reputation for raising 

 the finest Cantaloupes that come to the Baltimore market. In 

 passing through the fields inspecting the crops we were sur- 

 prised at the uniformity in the shape and size of the fruit. 

 The writer also tested the fruit, and found it to be of excellent 

 flavor. It is green-fleshed, and the rind is handsomely netted. 

 It is well known and popular with the truckers and market 

 gardeners of Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk and other places; 

 in fact, it is a leading sort all over the country.

^ IMPROVED JENNY LIfiD. 



A small, early variety of surpassing good quality, highly rec- 

 ommended for family garden. We consider this the most deli- 

 cious Cantaloupe we have ever eaten, and while the fruit is 

 small, it is an abundant bearer. A market gardener having this 

 sort for sale would in a short time have no difficulty in disposing 

 of all he could raise.

v^ROCKY FORD MELON, 



has become one of the most popular of small or bas- 

 elons, largely owing to the fact that growers in the 

 Rocky Ford region pack and ship their fruit In a 

 most attractive manner. The fruit is oval, slightly 

 ribbed, densely covered with coarse netting. Flesh 

 thick, green, very sweet and high- 

 flavoreu. 



■"•^ We offer an exceptionally fine 



stock of this sort, the fruit being 

 "d-^ wonderfully uniform in shape and 



quality.
