Maule's Honey 

 Muskmelon 



(Green flesh.) I caU it Honey from the fact that 

 56 of my customers suggested this name, in com- 

 petition for a. 35100 prize, and it was very gratifyln'^ 

 to me to know tbat so many felt compelled on ac- 

 count of its sweet, delicious flavor to call this grand 

 melon Honey. Maule's Honey muskmelon is of 

 medium size, weighing 3 to 4 pounds on an average. 

 It is distinctly and evenly rihbed and moderately 

 netted. Globe shape and somewhat flattened at the 

 stem and blossom end. Its exterior color is a 

 peculiar shade of green, quite unlike any other 

 muskmelon. The flesh is green, inclining to yel- 

 low. The spicy flavor is as distinct and character- 

 istic as It is sweet and pleasing. The flesh is both 

 deep and flrm, the edible portion almost touching 

 the rind, and remarkably juicy.

In this Rocky Ford Melon I offer my cus- 

 tomers a strain of seed grown for me by one 

 of the very best, if not the best, growers of 

 melons in Rocky Ford, Colo. The seed is 

 saved from a field in which not a single 

 melon has been sold, in other words only 

 the best and choicest melons have been 

 retained for seed. These melons if shipped 

 to the Eastern markets M^ould have brought 

 the highest prices, consequently the seed I 

 ofler costs me an unusually high price. 

 This strain of Rocky Ford is equal to any 

 small green fleshed melon now on the mar- 

 ket, and between ourselves while this is the 

 best green fleshed, Bowman's Gold Coin on 

 page 54 of my Seed Book is the best Sal- 

 mon fleshed variety of this character.
