 It is extra fine for both home and market use.

Knight Cantaloupe 



This new Cantaloupe has been grown in Anne xVrundel county for tna 

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

 of its earliness, productiveness, uniformity in shape and appearance ard 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 saleable melon. It has thick, 

 green flesh, shading to orange at the center. Tiie 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. Fkt., 10c. Oz., 20c. 14 Lb., 60c. Lb., $2.00. 



BOTTOMLY. — A production of Anne Arundel County, 'Maryland. One 

 of the newest and best Cantaloupes in exi.'Stence. About a week later than 

 the Knight. Fair size, excellent flavor, beautiful form and comprises all 

 that is necessary for a good melon. Pkt., 10c. Oz., 20c. % Lb., 60c. 

 Lb., $2.00. 



PATTL ROSE. — 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 .0 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., 30c. Lb., 9Cc.

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

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

 exquisite. A heavy yielder. the melons yevy uniform, but few nm too large, and 

 still fewer too sniail. For shipping we recommend it highly; also for home
