WATERMELONS 
CULTURE— 
Watermelons thrive 
best on light, well- 
drained soil, but 
give good results on 
any good rich gar¬ 
den soil that is prop¬ 
erly drained and cul¬ 
tivated. 
Plant after the 
weather is settled 
and ground is warm. 
Hills should be eight 
feet apart each way 
and with well-rotted 
manure thoroughly 
worked into each 
hill. One ounce of 
seed will plant 80 
hills, two or three 
pounds to the acre. 
Thin to two or three 
plants per hill.

KLECKLEY’S SWEETS 
The finest of all medium, early watermelons for home use. The rind is too thin to 
stand long-distance shipment. The fruits are uniform in size, oblong in form, the skin 
is rich dark green, the flesh bright scarlet, the seeds lie close to the rind, leaving a 
very bright, solid, red core. The flesh is rich, sugary and melting, entirely free from 
stringiness. Postpaid, pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; x /\ lb 30c; 1 lb 90c. 
ANGELINO, BLACK SEEDED 
Very uniform, vigorous growers. Flesh 
very deep red, stringless and very sweet. 
The rind green, thin but tough. A real 
good shipper. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; Va lb 35c; 
1 lb $1.00. 
STRIPED KLONDIKE 
An early garden and shipping variety 
similar to regular Klondike, but with irreg¬ 
ular dark green stripes. Fruits oblong, of 
medium size, rind medium hard. Flesh 
bright red, sweet and crisp; seeds small, 
striped, varying in color from black to 
white. Pkt. 10c; oz. 20c; 1 lb $1.75. 
SWEETHEART 
Remains in condition for use longer than 
any other sort. Fruit early, large, oval 
and very solid. Flesh bright red, tender 
and sweet. Rind thin, but strong. Postpaid, 
pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; Va lb 30c; 1 lb 90c. 
KLONDIKE BLACK SEEDED 
Klondike is offered with the assurance 
of being not only remarkably early, but as 
sweet, delicate and melting in flavor as 
any variety grown. The flesh is of a deep 
scarlet. Rind thin, not a particularly good 
shipping sort, but is emphatically the va¬ 
riety for home use and sale. Postpaid, pkt. 
5c; oz. 15c; Va lb 35c; 1 lb $1.00.
