New Chilian Water Melon 
This is a new introduction just sent out by a well known 
melon expert and he claims that it is so popular when once 
grown that it takes the place of nearly all other varieties. It is 
a very handsome melon, shaded with green and mottled with a 
darker shade of Kreen. Its rind is only about 14 inch in thick¬ 
ness, but very hard and touKh, being classed among the best 
shippers. The entire flesh of this melon all through and close 
to the rind is a deep crimson, of a sweet, delicious flavor, at all 
times solid and crisp. Be sure and try it this year.

Iceberg or Blue Gem 
In general shape, size and appearance this is similar to 
Kolb’s Gem, hut is distinctly darker, and the skin where the 
melon rests on the ground is a rich yellow instead of white, as 
in that variety. It has a very firm, hard rind: an exceedingly 
good shipper.

This is our Great Early Water 
Melon and is fast becoming known 
everywhere and is making a great 
record on account of its extreme 
earliness. It is delicious in flavor, 
very juicy and sweet and always 
salable. Excellent for family use, 
as a few vines will yield many 
melons. The flesh is deep red in 
color, exceedingly brittle; the skin 
is dark green with faint streaks of 
light green. Everyone should try 
this new Early Water Melon. Ex¬ 
cellent to plant if you are in a 
climate where the seasons are 
short., for it will ripen where many 
other Water Melons will not ma¬ 
ture. It is a Melon of easy culture

it a trial, for it is theearliest
