Hale’s Best . Mediamer 
A remarkably early shipping melon and very popular on all markets. 
Melons are oval in shape, about 6 in. long by 4^4 in. in diameter, 
with heavy netting and fairly distinct ribbing. Flesh exceptionally 
thick and deep salmon in color. 
Hearts of Gold (Improved Hoodoo).Mediate 
A splendid, mid-season variety developed from the TToodoo, being 
larger and more uniform; fruit round, with tendency to heart-shape, 
lightly ribbed and covered with a fine gray netting; flesh very thick, 
deep salmon color, and of high quality; a good shipping melon. 
Honey Dew (Antibes).Mediasure 
A distinct melon of the Cassaba type. Fruit large ovoid in form, 
about 10 inches long and 8 inches in diameter; surface smooth and 
hard without ribbing or netting, creamy white in color, turning to a 
lemon tint when fully ripe; flesh light emerald green, very thick, 
ripening to the rind, very tender and melting, with an extreme sweet¬ 
ness found in no other melon. 
Honey Rock (or Sugar Rock).... .Mediarock 
A new melon originating in Indiana and acquiring immediate 
popularity on account of high quality. O'f medium size with a gray- 
green skin moderately covered with a heavy, coarse netting; rich 
salmon flesh. 
Irondequoit . Mediator 
A netted type of Tip Top, and a most excellent main crop sort. Fruit 
large, gray-green in color, round, flattened at the ends, distinctly 
ribbed and well netted; flesh very thick, deep salmon color, and of the 
highest quality; a fine market melon. 
Jenny Lind. Medical

at the ends, but showing a decided “button” at blossom end; deeply 
ribbed and heavily netted. 
Lake Champlain (Golden Champlain).Medicure 
An exceedingly early, salmon-fleshed melon of medium size and fine 
quality. Evidently a cross between Fordhook and Emerald Gem as it

Large, long, oval and deeply ribbed; flesh light salmon, very thick 
and sweet.
