Perkins’ Mammoth Okra 
HARRIS’ EARLIEST. This melon ripens very early 
and is one of the best varieties on this account to 
raise in the northern states. Anyone who has light 
soil in a sunny warm situation can raise these 
melons. The fruit is oblong and marbled with light 
and dark green. The flesh is bright red and of good 
quality, though not of the best. This is a short- 
season sort. 
KLECKLEY’S SWEETS. This is one of the best for 
market gardeners who grow for their home mar¬ 
ket. The vines are vigorous and productive; fruits 
are medium to large, oblong, tapering slightly to¬ 
ward the stem end; dark green. The flesh is very 
bright, rich red and is exceedingly sweet, crisp, 
and tender. 
OKRA 
One ounce will sow 100 feet of row; 
8 pounds will sow an acre 
Sow after soil is warm, in rows 3 feet apart, 18 
inches apart in the row. The pods should be gathered 
while still young and tender, before the woody fiber 
develops. 
DWARF PROLIFIC. Of dwarf, stocky growth, very 
early and prolific. Excellent for general crop. 
PERKINS’ MAMMOTH. This variety is about 3 feet 
high, very early and productive. Pods are deep 
green, very long, slender, slightly corrugated, very 
tender and of good quality. A fine market variety. 
WHITE VELVET. This Okra takes its name from the 
smoothness of its pods, which are round, differing 
in this respect from the old sort.
