reached its great^ popu- 
larity, its originator, Mr. W. A. Kleckley, set to work to produce an 
equally good melon in quality but with a rind tough enough to 
stand shipment. He succeeded. He has produced this Kleckley 
Shipper with its wonderfully tough rind that allows successful 
shipping to the most distant markets and at the same time has re- 
tained the bright scarlet flesh of the Kleckley Sweet with its superb 
eating qualities and sweetness. Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 15 cents;

Chinese Mustard (No. 277) 
/Thiia Wo sold this vari- 
\ • ■ from China for years. 
It is much superior to the Southern Curled in 
size, quality and flavor. Immensely productive, 
the leaves being twice the size of ordinary mus- 
tard and remain tender and flt for use much 
longer. The quick, rank growth of this va- 
riety makes the leaves much more tender and 
juicy and keeps out the bitterness found in 
most varieties. See the engraving, which is a 
good representation of it. Packet, 5c; ounce, 
10c; % pound, 30c; pound, $1.00; postpaid.
