J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., ALMANAC AND 



I/One Star. This Melon was brought 

 here from Texas by Mr. Nat. Henderson, of 

 Ioeria Parish, La. It has proven to be the 

 best Melon for this section, either for mar- 

 ket or family use. This Melon is above 

 medium and very uniform in size; a prolific 

 bearer, oblong in shape; the rind is of mot- 

 tled green and black color, somewhat like 



the Rattle Snake but of a darker green. 

 The flesh is of a deep red color, solid, crisp 

 and very sweet in flavor, it cannot be ex- 

 celled by any variety. It is excelent for 

 market as well as for family use. When 

 better known it will become one of the lead- 

 ing varieties for the South. Recommend 

 same very highly.
