BALTIMORE NUTMEG CANTALOUPE 



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

 Baltimore IVntmes Cantaloupes gathered from the Held 

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

 of excellent flavor. It Is green-fleshed, and the rind is hand- 

 somely netted. It is well known and popular with the truck- 

 ers and market gardeners of Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk 

 and other places; |n fact, it is a leading sort all over the 

 country, Pkt^ 5c. \Oz., ^ % lb., 40c. Lb., $1.25.

 A small, early variety of surpassing good quality, highly 

 recommended for family garden. We consider this the most 

 delicious Cantaloupe we have ever eaten, and while the fruit

 in disposing of all he could raise.
