CULTURE DIRECTIONS — One fruit envelopes one seed, which sprouts from 
the large end. Plant where you intend it shall grow. Cover only tlie large end, 
leaving the small end exposed. (See Picture.) Or let the fruit lie around until it has well sprouted, and then plant 
the seed, leaving the sprout well above ground. Water freely and do not be alarmed if. frost should destroy it. A 
new shoot will soon appear. Give it abundance of water throughout the summer season. ... 
The vine is a rampant grower. The first year from seea it will grow twenty to thirty feet. Destroyed to tliQ 
ground by frost, it soon sends out new growth, and during the second season will extend vines forty or fifty feet in 
every direction. During September it starts blooming, having a small, white, insjguficant flower. Within four weeks 
the fruit is larger enough for the table. One vine in two years if property trellised will produce more than one thou¬ 
sand fruit. Price ^oc. each postpaid. Orders shipped January, February and March only.
