TT 111 LCI niicappic from the Sandwich Islands . The melons are almost solid, as shown in our illustration, and will weigh alxiut twice 
as much as any other variety of the same size, llie wonderful fragrance and delicious pineapple flavor make it the finest of all melons for either pri- 
vate or market purposes. Unlike ait other kinds it does not ripen on the vine, but should be picked before hard frost and placed in a cool cellar, 
where it will keep solid for months. When wanted for use bring to a warm room, where they will ripen in a few days. Pkt. lOc, 3 pkts. 25c.
