seen, considering both eating and shipping qualities. Flesh is deep 
red, sweet, stringless and melting. Rind light green, conspicuously 
striped with darker green; advertising itself on the market; thin,

will keep many days. Size is just right for the customer to carry 
home, weight averaging about 25 pounds. A common expression of 
those who ate these melons in our seed fields: “The best melon 
I have ever eaten.” Melon seed sales indicate that this is rapidly

is resistant to wilt.
