New Golden Rind Honey Dew 
Introduced in the Markets for the First Time the Past Season Under the Name of 
the Golden Honey Moon. 
T 'HIS wonderful new melon was discovered by Joe Edwards, season 1927. By careful 
selection each year he had enough select seed to plant one-half acre, season 1932, from 
which he sold the seed for $1,000.00, nearly $10.00 per pound. (Mr. Edwards also dis¬ 
covered and introduced the Perfecto cantaloupe ) 
This new melon is very attractive The rind is a rich golden color, even on the under side. 
The melon does not spot or sunburn like the Honey Dew. It is very prolific and runs fairly 
uniform in size. Averages smaller than the Honey Dew and is about two weeks earlier. The 
flesh is a bright emerald-green to the rind. It does not have the excessive sweet flavor of the 
Honey Dew but has a distinct flavor which is praised by all who have been fortunate enough 
to taste it. The vines make a vigorous growth and are remarkably disease-resistant. 
The melon is a splendid keeper and shipper. The entire acreage planted for shipping the 
past season was shipped by one company and readily outsold all other melons in the markets 
where introduced. We predict a great future for this grand new melon. 
The seed we offer was grown from the originator’s stock and saved under our personal 
supervision. There is none better. This seed is offered to the public for the first time this 
season. We Strongly Advise All Growers to Give it a Trial.

Golden Beauty Casaba 
TV77HILE favorably known in California for several years, the Casaba has but recently 
W/ become known in the large markets throughout the country. It was formerly classed 
” as a fall or winter melon. It is now grown in the Imperial Valley and shipped with the 
early cantaloupes and watermelons. 
This melon grows from 6 to 8 inches in diameter, is nearly round, slightly pointed at the 
stem end. The wrinkled skin is a beautiful golden-yellow when ripe and the rind is very hard. 
The flesh is pure white and very thick. The Golden Beauty is the best flavored Casaba 
and the most popular market variety. 
The seed we offer is our own Colorado-grown.
