very dark green and nearly the same diameter at both ends. Flesh 
light red, and very sweet and melting. Seeds white and less seeds 
per melon than almost any other sort. Will carry well up to 200

Our Watermelon We have been growing Watermelon Seed since 
Seed 1896 and while we grow a large acreage at the 
present time practically all of it goes direct to 
planters, many of whom plant from 20 to 100 
acres or more each. We have watched the principal growing sec¬ 
tions and the markets to know the varieties most in demand and 
those of the highest quality. 
Nearly all the old varieties have been dropped and in their places 
we offer new improved sorts of better quality, larger and better ship¬ 
pers. All of these are from critically selected stock seeds and each 
is grown well separated from any other variety to prevent mixing. 
Our 1904 catalog listed the popular varieties of that day. Kleckley 
Sweet is the only one of these listed in this catalog. It is one of the 
best for local market and the home garden. The New Dixie Queen 
and the Stone Mountain are the best large nearly round shipping 
melons. Greystone has a pleasing and different flavor but the shape 
and trueness to type is hardly as good as it will be after another gen¬ 
eration or two of selection. Black Seeded Angelino and Black Seeded 
Chilean are excellent small round varieties. Western shippers prefer 
Klondike. Oregon uses the Striped Klondike a great deal and Cali¬ 
fornia the early small black seeded type. Southern growers should 
try Burrell's Klondike; this is a large square ended strain of excellent 
quality. Burrell's Grey and Burrell's Red Heart Watson will please 
shippers requiring large, oblong shape melons. Burrell's Grey is the 
best of the grey rind melons, and in our trials we have as yet found 
no strain of Tom Watson equal to our Red Heart Watson.
