WATERMELONS 



TOM WATSON. A large oblong- variety which has 

 met with favor wherever grown. It originated 

 in Georgia, a State noted for producing fine melons, 

 and this new variety is a good example of what 

 a first-class watermelon should be. The rind is 

 thin, but tough, and the flesh a bright, attractive 

 red color, very solid and of a delicious, sweet and 

 satisfying flavor. The size and shape of this melon 

 strongly recommend it for shipping. Oz., 10 cts.; Y± 

 lb., 35 cts.; lb., $1.0O; 10 lbs., $9.50. 



ALABAMA SWEET. A large and attractive melon, 

 oblong in shape. Color dark green, flesh bright red, 

 remarkably firm and of luscious flavor. We recom- 

 mend it to those who grow for market, as it is well 

 adapted for that purpose. Oz., 10 cts.; Yi. lb., 30 cts.; 

 lb., $1.00; 10 lb., $9.50. 



YELLOW ICE CREAM. Flesh is a rich golden-yellow, 

 but unlike other varieties of this character, it is 

 entirely free from coarseness, and is sweet, luscious 

 and melting. Oblong shape, with dark green rind, 

 and can be kept in a cool, dry place for a long time. 

 The vines are inclined to overbear, but even the un- 

 developed specimens are of good qualitv. Oz., 20 

 cts.; Yi. lb., 50 cts.; lb., $1.50; 10 lbs., $12.00. 



HARRIS' EARLIEST. An extra early melon, oval 

 shape of very fine quality. Skin mottled and striped, 

 flesh bright red; very tender and sweet. It grows to 

 a good size for so early a melon. Oz., 10 cts.; Yi lb., 

 35 cts.; lb., $1.00; 10 lbs., $9.50. 



COLE'S EARLY. A splendid extra early variety suit- 

 able for home market, but on account of its thin rind 

 is not a good shipping melon. They grow to medium 

 size, skin is green with light stripes; flesh rich dark 

 red, luscious and sweet. Oz., 10 cts.; % lb., 30 cts.; 

 lb., $1.00; 10 lbs., $9.50. 



DIXIE. A cross between the Kolb Gem and old-fash- 

 ioned Mountain Sweet, surpassing the former in 

 earliness and of good flavor. Oz., 10 cts.; hi lb., 30 

 cts.; lb., $1.00; 10 lbs., $9.50. 



MONTE CRISTO, OR KLECKLEY SWEETS. Where 

 sweetness combined with large size is desired this 

 variety will surely please, as it has that crisp, 

 sugary flavor so much desired. It grows to a large 

 size and is oval-shape, with dark green skin, which is 

 somewhat mottled, and the flesh is bright red. Oz., 

 10 cts.; Yi lb., 35 cts.; lb., $1.15; 10 lbs., $10.00 



COLORADO PRESERVING CITRON. Excellent for 

 making preserves, for which purpose only it is use- 

 ful, as it is not edible in the raw state. This is the 

 best variety of its type. Oz., 10 cts.; % lb., 35 cts.; 

 lb., $1.15; 10 lbs., $10.00. 



FLORIDA FAVORITE. Of medium size, striped alter- 

 nately light and dark green, flesh deep red, crisp and 

 deliciously sweet. Earlier than Kolb's Gem and a 

 good shipping melon. Oz., 10 cts.; Yi lb., 30 cts.; 

 lb., $1.00; 10 lbs., $9.50. 



KOLB'S GEM. Oval shape and of a delicious, sugary 

 flavor, bright red flesh, firm and solid. One of the 

 most productive and best keeping melons. Good for 

 marketing. Oz., 10 cts.; % lb., 30 cts.; lb., $1.0©; 10 

 lbs., $9.50. 



MAMMOTH IRONCLAD. Large size, oblong in shape, 

 solid and of most delicious flavor. The flesh is bright 

 scarlet in color, very firm and crisp. It is a very 

 prolific bearer. Oz., 10 cts.; hi lb., 30 cts.; lb., $1.0©; 

 10 lbs., $9.50.
