CULTURE —Plant from April to June after warm weather 
has become settled, as Melon Vines are rather delicate until 
they get a good start and do not thrive well if checked by cold 
and wet weather. Plant in well fertilized hills 8 feet apart, 
8 or 10 seeds to the hill, covering about 1 inch. After they 
get a good start, thin to 3 or 4 plants. New ground or a broom 
straw field is an excellent place in which to grow melons, as 
they thrive best in light, sandy soil. One ounce will plant 
about 25 or 30 hills: about 2 lbs. are required for an acre.

delicious, and ripens close to the rind. This variety is so 
crisp and tender that it will not stand shipping. Oz. 10c: 
54 lb. 20c; lb. 70c, postpaid.

melon grown for shipping. It is a long dark green melon.

red, firm and very sweet. Grows to a large size and is al¬ 
ways uniform as to shape, size and colorings. One of its 
especially attractive characteristics is its permanent dark 
green gloss which makes it always look fresh as if it had 
just been pulled from the vine. Has taken the lead over 
all other melons for shipping to distant markets and gen¬ 
erally brings the highest prices. Oz. 10c; 54 lh- 20c; U>* 70c,

rind is thin, but hard and tough, making it especially adapted 
for shipping to distant markets. Oz. 10c; 54 lh- 30c; lb. 90c.
