New Wonder Watermelon 
(An Improved Kleckley Sweet) 
NEW WONDER WATERMELONS 
This splendid variety is the finest flavored melon introduced in recent years. No 
other melon has ever attained such popularity for home use and near-by markets. As 
originally introduced, the rind was too thin and tender to permit shipping, but by 
careful selection this defect has been largely overcome. 
At the present time New Wonder is the favorite shipping melon with our Colo¬ 
rado growers, and rapidly growing in favor in other sections of the country. The 
melons grow 18 to 24 inches in length, 10 to 12 inches through, averaging about 35 
pounds in weight, oblong in form, with very dark-green skin, flesh deep scarlet red, 
with solid heart, stringless, with few seeds, set near the rind. 
It grows larger than the “Kleckley” and has produced melons weighing 60 pounds. 
Shape is similar to the Watson. The skin is a dark glossy-green. The flesh is rich 
red, solid and stringless, fine flavored to the rind. 
Price: Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; X A lb. 30c; 14 lb. 55c; 1 to 10 lbs. @ $1.00 per lb.; 
25 lbs. or more @ 90c per lb. Prepaid. 
Klondike Watermelons 
BROWN-SEEDED—There is more of this variety grown in California than any 
other. Several thousand acres are grown every season in the Imperial Valley. It is 
a fine melon for local use, and reasonably distant markets. The Klondike is an ob¬ 
long melon, slightly ribbed, of medium size, and of dark green color. The flesh is 
bright red, melting and deliciously sweet, and contains but few small seeds. On ac¬ 
count of the seed being small, one pound will plant almost as much as two pounds of 
the ordinary variety. 
BLACK-SEEDED—The same as above except that it averages a little larger in 
size and to many a black-seeded melon is far more attractive than the white or brown- 
seeded melons. 
PRICE: Either Variety—Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; X A lb. 30c; x / 2 lb. 55c; 
1 to 10 lbs. @ $1.00 per lb.; 25 lbs. or more @ 90c per lb. Prepaid.
