WATERMELON 
SMOKY JOE—90 Days—There are many long varieties of melons, but 
only one Smoky Joe. A watermelon of enormous size and of the finest 
shipping quality. The giant melons often measure 28 inches long and 
18 inches in diameter and weigh 60^ to 80 pounds each. The color is an 
attractive dark green. The rind is medium thick, enough to insure long 
keeping, and the withstanding of rough handling during shipping. The 
meat is an appealing rich red and is delicious and sweet. It is entirely 
free from hard centers and stringy flesh, and when fully ripe will slice 
half an inch thick and not break. The Smoky Joe is our own develop¬ 
ment and introduction, a crossing of the famous quality melons, Kleckley 
Sweet and Tom Watson. Smoky Joe has blunt ends and more free from 
necks than any other melon we know of. 
(Wilt Resistant) 
STATE FAIR—This is a wilt re¬ 
sistant Stone Mountain, round in 
shape, having the same color rind 
as its parent, and bred for resis¬ 
tance to wilt, a common disease in 
so many sections the past two or 
three years. The flesh is deep red, 
firm and solid of heart; an unusu¬ 
ally early solid melon, many at¬ 
tain a weight of 40 pounds; fine for 
roadside and store trade. Lb. $1.25; 
5 lbs., $5.00; 10 lbs. $8.50. 
KLECKLEY’S SWEET, No. 6— 
This wilt-resistant melon is better 
quality than Kleckley’s Sweet. Long 
dark green, almost free from 
necks; good shape, red meat, white 
seed, medium early. Average 
weight up to 35 pounds; about 85% 
wilt-resistant; one of the best va¬ 
rieties for wilt infested soil. Lb., 
$1.25; 5 lbs., $5.00; 10 lbs., $8.50. 
CANTALOUPE 
HALE’S BEST No. 36—85 Days—A beautiful melon; highly flavored, 
really good to eat. Has proven its worth by becoming the most popular 
cantaloupe with large shippers the past several seasons. So wonderfully 
uniform that it is an outstanding breeding accomplishment. It is large, 
packing mostly 36’s or using the Jumbo flat crate 12’s. Solidly netted, 
little if any suture and no ribs. The rich, spicy salmon flesh is deep, 
fine grained and holds up well for long-distance shipping. While pri¬ 
marily bred for the shipping trade, its many fine qualities make it ideal 
for roadside market and home gardens. We recommend this melon to 
melon growers; for north—where the seasons are short—for south to 
be first on the market with a real good cantaloupe. 
HARD-SHELL GOLDEN OSAGE—A new and excellent flavored melon 
on the order of Bender’s Surprise in general appearance. It is valuable, 
especially for its hard shell which makes it fine for marketing, as they 
will stand up better than most varieties. Deeply ribbed, covered with a 
grayish yellow rope-like netting except for the distinct stripes. Skin is 
a beautiful yellow, flesh is medium in grain, red salmon in color, and 
sweet, tasty flavor. Weight about 6 to 7 pounds.
