WATER MELONS. p«*«* * cents e ach . 
"Water Melons being of tropical origin, require a quick, warm soil to ripen thoroughly 
in this climate. I have found that it is nearly useless to attempt to grow the large Southern 
Water Melons as far north as Eochester. They do not ripen sufficiently to become sweet 
and tender. The two melons best adapted to our climate are the Ice Cream and Mountain 
Sweet. They will do the best in a light sandy soil, if the hills are made rich with manure. 
Make the hills with two or three shovelfuls of fine, well-rotted manure well mixed with 
the soil, the hills to be raised slightly above the surface of the ground.
