WINTER MELONS 
Only Southern Planters should plant these melons. They do best 
in arid sections under irrigation 
Golden Beauty Casaba 
This is the finest of the casabas 
and a money maker for market 
growers wherever casabas mature well. The photo above shows the 
type of this variety, which runs very true. The flesh is sweet, juicy, 
very fine grained and deep. The seeds are held firmly in the center 
and the melons keep well for two or three months after maturity. 
On the markets they are gaining in favor and there is now a demand 
for very large shipments. This is the sort most extensively grown 
in California. 
Try them in your home garden if you do not grow for market. 
An ounce of seed may produce you many dollars’ worth of fine melons 
Our strain of this is very uniform in size and shape, and we 
recommend it to the most critical planters.

EXPERIENCED GROWERS BUY THE BEST SEED 
After all, the price paid for seeds amounts to very little com¬ 
pared with that expended in the growing and harvesting of your 
crop. The difference in price between the best seed and poor seed 
is slight but the difference in results may be considerable. The only 
bargain in seed is in quality. 
In most cases there is no way you can tell the variety, trueness 
to type, productiveness or hardiness by examining seed. You may 
readily pass on the sample; and germination tests can easily be made 
for viability, but you must depend on the grower for all of the other 
important considerations.
