OUR WATERMELON SEED 
We have been growing- Watermelon Seed since 1896 and while 
we grow a large acreage at the present time practically all of it 
goes direct to planters, many of whom plant from 20 to 100 acres or 
more each. We have watched the principal growing sections and 
the markets to know the varieties most in demand and those of the 
highest quality. 
During the past 37 years there has been a continuous change in 
varieties and at present Burrell’s Improved Kleckley Sweet is prac¬ 
tically the only one we list which goes in a direct line back to our 
planting in 1896. Our Improved Kleckley Sweet is one of the best. 
Nearly all the old varieties have been dropped and in their places 
we offer new improved sorts of better quality, larger and better 
shippers. All of these are from critically selected stock seeds and 
each is grown well separated from any other variety to prevent mixing. 
From Thayer, Kan. —My melon crop in Fla. was a decided suc¬ 
cess, thanks to your Red Heart Watson, returning over $100.00 per 
acre while many had no returns at all. 
From Jeffersonville, Ohio: “I exhibit extensively at Ohio State 
Fair, having a carload of melon and vegetable exhibits. All Ohio’s 
best melon growers use Burrell’s melon seeds every year.”
