WATERMELON 
EARLY KANSAS —Introduced last year for the 
first time, a wonderful new watermelon, Early Kan¬ 
sas. Results from trials in many parts of the country 
were highly satisfactory, proving beyond a doubt 
that this is the largest of all early melons, ten days 
or more earlier to ripen than Watson—only 85 days 
from planting the seed to ripe melon. The Early 
Kansas has fine texture, sweet flavor and melting, 
of Extra Quality 
bright red meat, solid to the rind, which is not 
thick. Nearly round in form, light green with broad 
bands of wavy stripes, growing 30 to 60 pound 
melons, with some specimens up to 80 pounds, seed 
red when green but dry to buff color and very few 
to each melon. It is a very robust grower, heavy 
deep rooting vines assur.e a heavy cropper, the pro¬ 
ductiveness is equal to or better than any other 
melon; under normal conditions 800 to 1,000 melons 
per acre weighing 30 pounds each is not surprising 
and every melon a good one, no white or stringy 
hearts, and a wonderful shipper. Postpaid, pkt. 10c; 
oz. 15c; ^4 lb. 35c; lb. $1.10. Larger quantities $1.00 
per lb. 
DIXIE QUEEN —Is an enormous yielder, vines are 
of vigorous growth, melons in form are round to 
oval, skin striped light and dark green, fruits are 
of good size, flesh bright red, crisp and splendid 
quality, good shipper, and sell to good advantage, 
seeds small white, and very few in each melon. One 
pound of Dixie Queen seed will plant as much ground 
as two pounds of Stone Mountain or other large 
type seed, medium early, and is a very satisfactory 
melon with all who have grown it for market. Post¬ 
paid, pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; J /4 lb. 35c; lb. $1.10. Larger 
quantities $1.00 per lb.

HONEY ROCK—The Best Ever 
Melon. Honey Rock has four char¬ 
acteristics which are outstanding. 
These are: first, quality; second, pro¬ 
ductiveness; third, ability to stand 
shipping and handling; fourth, strik¬ 
ing appearance. This melon has deep 
orange flesh with a flavor different 
from other sorts, which can only be 
appreciated by tasting. Honey Rock 
is one of the most prolific varieties 
grown. The fruits are oval and me¬ 
dium in size, and are not ribbed. 
The ground is light 
golden yellow over¬ 
laid with heavy gray 
netting. Honey Rock 
has proven to be a 
real money maker for 
the grower. We want 
you to try it on 
our recommendation.
