 medium size, covered with 

 light and dark green 

 stripes, alternately ; flesh 

 deep red, delicious, sweet, 

 very firm and crisp. Its

 it popular with those who 

 plant for their own use and 

 prefer quality to enormous 

 size. Packet. 5 cents ;

Triumph Watermelon.— This new melon, as 

 a market sort and for shipment is the best we have 

 ever introduced. It is very prolific, very early, and of 

 uniformly large size. It is a cross between the Duke 

 Jones and Colt) Gem ; has the fine handsome appear- 

 ance of the former 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 those 

 of the Kolb Gem. The average size of the melon is 

 very large. Our stock of this seed is very limited. 

 Packet, 10 cents : ' 2 pound, 25 cents ; pound, 40 cents. 



Kolb's (iem Wat€>rm«'ioii. — Our stock is from 

 headquarters. This is one of the largest, most pro- 

 lific, best shipping and keeping melons ever intro- 

 duced. So popular did it become that we were unable 

 to fill all our orders in the past three years. The rind 

 is very thin, but tough ; flesh bright red and flavor ex- 

 cellent. In our long experience we have never known 

 any melon to introduce itself so quickly to growers 

 and shippers. After another year's trial it is more 

 valued than ever. Packet, 5 cents ; ounce, 10 cents ; 

 '+ pound, 15 cents ; pound, 30 cents.
