 is larger in size and makes a most attractive and saleable melon. It has thick, 

 green flesh, shading to orange at the center. Tiie fruits are oblong in shape, 

 well ribbed and well netted. It is a leader both for planting for home use and

PAUL BOSXi. — In this new sort are combined all the good qualities of 

 the Netted Gem and the Osage, the varieties , from whicli it originated. The 

 fruit is oval, about o inches in diameter, and In shape and general appearance 

 similar to the well-known Netted Gem or Rocky Ford. The firm flesh is a rich 

 orange-red color, like that of the Osage, but even sweeter and higher flavored, 

 retaining its good qualities quite to the rind. We think it really has no equal 

 as a market melon for professional melon-growers, and. it is one of the very 

 best sorts for the home garden. Pkt., 10c. Oz., 15c. 14 Lb., 30c. Lb., 90c.

 netting and absence of deep spaces between the rilis, indicating strong shipping 

 properties. The flesh is unusually thick, the seed cavity very small, tlie flavor 

 exquisite. A heavy yielder, the melons -very unif(U-m. but few run too large, and 

 still fewer too sniail. For shipping we recommend it highly; also for home
