Sweet Heart

introduced by us in 1894. 



This Grand Melon was extensively grown the past season and every planter was delighted with it, as it proved in the 

 hands of our customers just what we claimed for it, 



EARLY, LARGE, HANDSOME, HEAVY, 

 GOOD SHIPPER, LONG KEEPER.

In hundreds of markets, in 1894, it found ready sale at good prices when all other sorts were a drug. 



DESCRIPTION. — Vine vigorous and productive, ripening its fruit early. Fruit large, oval, very heavy, uniformly 

 mottled light and very light green. Rind thin but flrrcf. Flesh bright red, firm, solid but very tender, m.elting and sweet. 

 Fruit remains in condition for use longer than any other sort. Seeds gray. 



NO MELON GROWER CAN AFFORD TO BE WITHOUT IT. 



HISTORY.— Mr. Albert Wittenmyer, the well-known melon grower, tried all new varieties offered and had about 

 concluded it was impossible to find a shipping melon of good quality, when he discovered a single plant bearing his ideal 

 fruit. He propagated, developed and tested it commercially and found it sold readily at fancy prices when no other sort was 

 salable.
