430 Condon's Select True Osage 
Ihis melon has made its way into public favor from the Marlcet. Gardeners who have oeen growmg 
Osage for over 35 j'ears. We have seen many types of Osage and we are safe in saying the type we are 
offering is far superior to the old parent type of years ago. The vines bear profusely, setting fruits close 
to the hill and will continue to bear melons for a long growing season. Our stock will produce melons 
averaging about two pounds, slightlv elongated as shown in the picture and is covered with a light netting 
over a dark green skin. The flesh is thick and of a delicious golden color, extending to the rind. We 
believe next to Condon's Perfection this is the melon and would recommend planting liberally of both as 
they are sure to please. No better strain of Osage obtainable anywhere on earth. Packet, 3 cts.; ounce, 
10 cts.; 'A lb., 35 cts.; Yi lb., 65 cts.; lb., $1.25, postpaid.
