After trials of about 20 kinds we selected the following: 
ALABAMA SWEET. The best long melon grown; fine for 
shipment, large, of oblong form, flesh bright red and of delicious 
flavor. Seeds are white. 
COLE’S EARLY. Best home variety and for nearby market; 
early and hardy, very sweet, red, rind slightly striped. 
FORDHOOK EARLY. A good melon and ranks up with 
Cole’s Early, only larger and better, long distance shipper. 
HALBERT’S HONEY. Another good home variety, with a 
dark green skin and crimson flesh, extra flavor, rather oblong. 
Once tried it will always find a place in the garden. 
KLECKLEY SWEET. A big melon, rank grower and simply 
covers the ground with fruit of fine market quality. It does well 
in northern climate, and cannot be beaten for medium crop. 
Onions 
KLECKLEY SWEET 
Our Onion Seed is already cleaned and dried ready for 
shipment and never had such fine looking seed. We grow 
this from the best selected Onions and we will guarantee 
you will not get any better. Can make a very attractive 
. price on large lots or carloads. Write and state number of 
pounds wanted. This is one of our leaders. 
WATSON. Though this variety matures early, it is 
the largest melon, 18 to 20 inches long and 10 to 12 inches 
thick and has a recprd of weighing from 40 to 50 pounds. 
A tough rind, making it a good shipper. Its quality is as 
good as any melon grown. There is no mistake in grow¬ 
ing “Tom Watson.’’
