Stone Mountain or Dixie Bell—82 Days 
Of recent introduction, but has become a favorite home and 
market garden sort. Southern shippers plant extensive acreages of 
this for shipping to northern markets. Fruits large, often weighing 
50 pounds, broad, oval, almost round with blocky ends. Rind grey 
green with indistinct veining, hard and tough. Flesh bright crim¬ 
son, sweet and crisp.

rind which is light grey. Won an award of merit as being one of 
the “All American” outstanding introductions. Flavor is “different 
from the rest”; you will like it. Fruits large, often weighing 50 
pounds, broad, oval; rounded at stem end and as a rule rather blocky 
at blossom end. Rind grey, distinctly penciled with green; thin and 
fairly tough, making it a fair shipper. Flesh bright crimson, sweet 
and crisp. This is a new sort and type only fairly well fixed; will be 
better in this respect after a few more generations of selection.
