KNIGHT CANTALOUPS 



NORFOLK BUTTON 



An improved strain of Early Jenny Lind, hav- 

 ing a nub or button on the blossom end, which 

 gives it' a distinction over all other varieties. It 

 is very early, of remarkably fine texture and de- 

 icious flavor, and produces fruits of the finest quality. 

 It is extra fine for both home and market use. We 

 are putting the above on the market for the first 

 time, and have but a limited supply of seed. Those 

 who wish to secure a trial order will do well by 

 placing their order at once. Pit., 10c. Oz._- 15c.

This new Cantaloupe has been grown in Anne Arundel county for the 

 past several years, and has created a furore with our truckers, on account 

 of its earliness, productiveness, uniformity in shape and appearance and its fine 

 table qualities. It matures about a week earlier than the regular Rocky Ford, 

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

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

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

 market and for shipping. Its early maturity, together with its fine qualities, 

 are strong points in its favor. Pkt., 10c. Oz., 15c. 14 Lb., 35c. Lb., $1.25 



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

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

 fruit is oval, about 5 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., 35c. Lb., $1.00 



ANNE ARUNDEL CANTALOUPE 



(Original Stock.) 



This handsome melon introduced by us several years ago, was for years 

 a special favorite with a number of the leading growers of Anne Arundel 

 county, Maryland. This county is justly celebrated as growing the finest 

 Cantaloupes in the country. We migfrt almost say the finest in the world. 

 Knowing its value, we selected the stock and placed it before our customers. 

 It has met every promise we made for it upon its introduction. Pkt., 10c. 

 Oz., 15c. i/4 Lb., 35c. Lb., $1.0O. 



HONEY DEW MELON. — This new melon averages about 6V2 inches 

 in diameter. Smooth skin, rind thin and tough, good keeper and fine 

 flavor. Pkt., 10c. Oz., 20c. ^ Lb., 60c. Lb., $2.00. 



EDEN GEM OR NETTED ROCK 



One of the handsomest melons in our list. Splendid shape and thorough 

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

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

 exquisite. A heavy yielder, the melons very uniform, but few run too large, and 

 still fewer too small. For shipping we recommend it high ly ; also for home 

 growers. Pkt., 10c. Oz., 15c. % Lb., 35c. Lb., $1.00
