Extra Early Sunrise. This new melon is a wonder. It will cer¬ 
tainly be the best money maker melon on this market for 
years to come. This melon is very early, it ripens as early 
as the Lake Champlain which is considered the earliest of 
all the yellow meated melons grown. The melons grow quite 
large, average 5 lbs. or more and are of oval shape, light 
golden yellow, and covered with fine netting; the flesh is 
firm deep orange yellow, and of high flavor, very sweet. 
The combination of earliness, high quality and good size, 
is not found in any other melon on this market. 75 days. . .10 .30 1.00 
If you want the best all-around Muskmelon either for the 
home garden or the market, plant Extra Early Sunrise. 
Earliest Ripe Musk Melon. This is the earliest yellow-fleshed 
musk melon that we know of, being ready for the market in 
65 to 70 days after planting it; is of oval shape, good size, 
about five inches in diameter, with fairly distinct ribbing, 
heavily netted. The flesh is exceptionally thick, of a rich 
salmon yellow color, sweet, luscious and melting, and the 
flavor is unsurpassed by that of any other variety. The 
vines are robust and vigorous, resisting blight to a marked 
degree. If you want to make some early money, there is 
no other variety in the wide world that you can plant that 
will give quicker returns than our earliest ripe musk melon. .15 .40 1.50
