Sugar Boy Watermelon 
Sugar Boy Watermelon is the sweetest, most delicious and 1 
most prolific Watermelon on earth. There is no Melon that ij 
can begin to equal it in quality, richness of flavor, luscious¬ 
ness, deep, juicy, rich core, fine outward appearance, large 
giant size and extreme earliness. We say there is no Melon on 
earth that can approach it in the quality that goes to make 
a superb Melon. Sugar Boy Melon will grow to weigh from 
20 to 60 pounds, and every one of them, large or small, is 
sweet, tender, juicy, brittle, stringless and melting on the 
tongue. This Melon—being a cross of the Halbert’s Honey, 
Monte Crisco and Kleekley Sweet—resembles very much the 
Kleckley in outward appearance. It retains all the good qual¬ 
ities of Kleckley Sweets, has a harder rind, making it a better 
shipper, grows larger and more uniform and has no hard 
white centers. Try this Melon. You will like it.
