It is delicious, rich, sweet, deep-fieshed, just the

meat, from the very small seed-cavity to the nnd ; 
yields tremendously; in every respect an ideal 
melon. (See illustration on front cover.) Every- 
body should order it. Pkt. 5 cts., Vioz. 15 cts.,

Honet, Dew Melon. ZT'^Tf^^r^i 
melon. Let everybody grow it; then it can speak 
for itself, better than words can describe it. It 
is different from any muskmelon or cantaloupe, 
both in appearance and flavor. The melons are 
large and round ; the outer skin is hard and almost 
white, turning to a lemon color when ripe. The 
thick, deep flesh is light green with a rich delicious 
honey-sweet flavor and very juicy, unlike any 
other melon. They will keep until late in the fall 
when no other melons are to be had. The vines 
grow coarse and heavy and withstand un- 
favorable weather conditions and bugs better 
than any other. Grow them for yourself; grow 
them for market. When you get them started, 
you will not be able to grow enough to supply 
the demand. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., V4lb.

WHY NOT INSURE YOUR MELON CROP? 
It sometimes happens, just when the melon patch is in 
perfect condition and full of partly developed melons, 
that blight strikes and away goes the crop. If you spray 
with Pyrox (one pound to five gallons) when the patch 
is in perfect condition, it will prevent blight and also 
kill the melon bugs. I have it. See "Insecticides" m back 
of catalogue.
