After trials of about 20 kinds we selected the following: 
Alabama Sweet. The best long melon grown ; fine for shipment, large, 
of oblong form, flesh bright red and delicious flavor. Seeds are white. 
Cole’s Early. Best home variety and for nearby market; early and 
hardy, very sweet, red, rind slightly striped. 
Pordhook Early. A good melon and ranks up with Cole's Early, only 
larger and better, long distance shipper. 
Halbert Honey. Another good home variety, with a dark green skin 
and crimson flesh, extra flavor, rather oblong. Once tried it will always 
find a place in the garden. 
Kleckley Sweet. A big melon, rank grower and simply covers the 
ground with fruit of fine market quality. It does well in northern 
climates and cannot be beaten for medium crop. 
Tom Watson. Though this variety matures early, ii is the largest 
melon, 18 to 20 inches long and 10 to 12 inches thick and has a record 
of weighing from 40 to 50 pounds. A tough rind, making a good 
shipper. Its quality is as good as any melon grown. There is no mis¬ 
take in “Tom Watson.”
