Maulers National 



The Melon for 

 Everyone 



The National is a watermelon of medium to large size and of high table quality. It is of Southern origin, but thrives 

 well in the North. In shape it is oblong. The outside color is pale green, with darker green markings. The flesh is 

 brilliant red in color, and remarkably solid. The flavor is delicious, and the flesh entirely stringless. The rind, though 

 thin, is tough, insuring good shipping qualities. National produces large melons, often weighing 40 pounds and over.' 

 Its handsome appearance and luscious flavor make it a rapid seller, and for the home garden it has no equal.

Yellow Fleshed, Sweet, Crisp and 

 Delicious 



A large melon with yellow flesh that fairly 

 melts in the mouth, and which for its fine 

 sugary, juicy and delicious flavor cannot be 

 surpassed by any red flesh melon on the 

 market. The outside skin is dark green, 

 grows a long oblong in shape, large size,, 

 and a perfect sort for home use. The rind 

 is thin but hard, and the color of flesh a 

 golden yellow, solid, crisp, smooth, of de- 

 licious sweetness, and with few seeds. For] 

 table use it is equally as good as any of the 

 red flesh varieties, and is extensively 

 planted. Its tempting, melting flavor, has 

 made it one of the most popular water- 

 melons of our list for the home gardener. 



Alabama Sweet 



The Favorite Melon 

 of the South 



This splendid large melon, as shown in 

 the illustration, is oblong in shape. The 

 tough skin is very dark green, with still 

 darker stripes; flesh is dark red in color, fine 

 grained, sweet and luscious, entirely free of 

 stringiness. A first class shipper; under 

 good cultivation they grow to a very large 

 size, frequently weighing from 30 to 60 

 pounds, and commanding the very highest 

 prices in the market. It is a favorite above 

 all others in sections where it has been 

 grown. Makes a strong, healthy A'ine and 

 is very productive. It is also one of the 

 best melons for home use.
