Special Varieties of Extra Quality 
WATERMELONS 
KLONDIKE 
An extra early fine melon, superb quality. The 
meat is a rich, bright red and very appetizing. 
Vendors along the highways always cut a Klondike 
when they wish to attract customers. The rind is 
thick enough to protect the melon in shipping and 
yet it is not a thick, heavy rind like many varieties. 
If you are planting for market or for home con¬ 
sumption you will not go wrong by planting the 
Klondike. Average weight 25 to 30 lbs. Edible in 
87 days. Color solid dark green, showing slight ribs 
running lengthwise of the fruit. Oblong in shape. 
Postpaid, pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; Vi lb. 30c; lb. $1.00. 
Larger quantities 90c per lb. 
Early Kansas 
EARLY KANSAS 
A wonderful new watermelon. Results from trials 
in many parts of the country were highly satisfac¬ 
tory, proving beyond a doubt that this is the larg¬ 
est of all early melons—only 85 days from plant¬ 
ing the seed to ripe melon. The Early Kansas has 
tine texture, sweet flavor and melting, 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 assure a heavy cropper, the produc¬ 
tiveness is equal to or better than any other melon.
