Weight: 74 pounds 
Edible in 90 days 
Principal use: Local markets 
A very promising new develop¬ 
ment among the larger melons. 
This large sized fruit with 
heavy rind and good keeping 
qualities is proving a favorite 
on local markets. The outside 
color is grey turning to yellow 
at maturity and the coarse net¬ 
ting appears as the melons be¬ 
come ripe. The flesh is dark 
pink, very thick and firm in 
texture. The edible qualities 
are good. It is especially adapt¬ 
ed for use under unfavorable 
growing conditions and is a 
stock that can well replace old¬ 
er varieties in muskmelons of 
large size. 
LARGE JENNY LIND 
(Green Flesh)

Weight: 2 pounds 
Edible in 87 days 
Principal use: Home garden 
A spicy, green fleshed melon 
attaining considerable more 
size than the original Jenny 
Lind. It carries rather a deep 
stripe between heavy netting. 
The early melons are especial¬ 
ly desirable for home garden 
and near-by markets. The in¬ 
creased size of this strain adds 
to its popularity.
