Condon’s Pure Bred Selected Seed 
One of the most popular Melons introduced in re¬ 
cent years. This strain we offer is a Pure Bred 
selection from the original type, but is much larger 
and carries heavier netting. Size, 6x5 inches. 
Weight, 2 pounds. 
The vines are hardy, strong, vigorous growers 
and rarely affected by rust. It is very early and 
prolific; has been known to mature in 80 days from 
planting, although the average is 
90 days for edible melons. 
The melons run from oval to ob¬ 
long in shape; very uniform in size, 
averaging a little larger than the 
Rocky Ford varieties. While it is 
a ribbed melon, the ribs are not 
prominent and very heavily netted. 
The flesh is a rich orange color, 
fine-grained and of excellent 
flavor. The seed cavity is small. 
The melon does not turn yellow 
when ripe but retains its nat¬ 
ural green color and remains 
solid and firm for days after it 
is picked from the vine. Our 
melon seed on this and all va¬ 
rieties offered is saved from 
hand selected, uniform, highly 
developed melons, and may be 
depended upon to give planters 
uniformly satisfactory results. 
Packet, 7 cts.; ounce, 16 cts.; 14 
lb., 40 cts.; % lb., 70 cts,; lb., 
$1.25; 2 lbs., $2.40, postpaid.
