HONEYMEL (New) (Special). A new Rocky Ford introduction. 
Brought nearly double the price on the market that other 
cantaloupes did and was sold under the trade-marked 
name Melodew. Rather early, pearl grey rind with med¬ 
ium light netting. Large in size. Flesh same as Honey Dew. 
We will now be able to raise a Honey Dew Muskmelon in 
our northern country just as well as they do in California. $0.20 $0.50 $1.75 
A NEW MELON 
Golden Combination (Special). Unsurpassed in sweetness and 
flavor. This new melon has a deliciously sweet “musky” 
flavor which we have never tasted in any other kind. It 
is a medium large muskmelon, somewhat oval in shape, 
and with very thick, deep orange flesh of fine texture. 
The skin is very heavily netted and of a pale green color 
which turns to light yellow as the melons ripen. This is 
the heaviest melon for its size of any we have ever seen. 
It ripens about the same time as Bender’s Surprise. Try 
some Golden Combination this year. We are sure you will 
like it.10 .35 1.25 
New Beauty Osage (Special). We introduce this exceptional 
new melon for quality, size and earliness. We predict it 
will come into general use for a home or market melon. 
The melons ripen early and produce a heavy crop. They 
usually weigh 6 to 8 pounds. The shape is round oblong, 
slightly ribbed and with a creamy yellow color when ripe. 
The flesh is salmon, very thick and of wonderful quality. 
The melons are quite heavily netted and of attractive 
appearance. The quality is the best of any large melon 
we ever tried.10 .35 1.25

is large, averaging 28 to 30 pounds. No hollow center 
whether large or small. It is oval or round in shape; dis¬ 
tinctly striped; rich red flesh, unexcelled in sweetness 
with tan colored seeds. 79 days.10 .30 1.10 
Will Rogers. This water melon will be in much demand with 
its sugary, juicy, rich flavor. It is a smooth, round, oval 
shaped melon with dark rind and often weighing 40 pounds 
Its tough rind makes a very desirable shipping melon. It 
has a vigorous vine and is a heavy yielder. Seeds are white .10 .30 1.10 
King Gold. We believe should be a fine melon for the north, 
the first melon matured in 55 days and in a warm growing 
period this could be hastened another 5 days. The rind is 
light green in color, 1/2 inch thick, and very strong. It 
should be a good shipper, flesh is sweet, dark pink. The 
melons are very uniform and about 17 inches long, with a 
circumference of 18 inches.20 .55 2.00
