MELON. This Melon has been grown in the Kaw Valley for the past four years, 
under various names, such as Hutchinson’s Striped, Early Russian, Early Gems, 
Abilen’s Favorite, Etc 
Our experiments, so far show that it is the LARGEST EARLY MELON 
GROWN, Further experiments will be conducted, in FLORIDA, this year 1934, 
as to its final merits, and will be officially named and registered at Washington 
for future indentification. 
This WATERMELON, is of the finest texture, sweetest flavor, rich bright 
red solid flesh. 
This Melon is nearly round, light green in color with a deep dark broad 
stripe weighing from 35 to 70 pounds or more with glossy buff colored seeds 
which are few in each melon averaging about four ounces to the melon. The 
rind is about half inch thick. 
The very hansome appearance of this melon which is borne on very heavy 
vines with large heavy tap roots make it a sure melon to grow. It is a won¬ 
derful shipper.
