The melon that has stood the test of time. Our 1904 catalog 
listed the popular varieties of that day. Kleckley Sweet is the 
only one of these listed in this catalog and it is still popular 
for the home garden. 
Kleckley Sweet, Burrell’s Improved ® days. The 
most popular 
home garden sort. Our strain is known by some as the “Hard

strains. Melons are oblong, very dark green and nearly the same 
diameter at both ends. Flesh light red, and very sweet and melt- 
ing. Seeds white and less seeds per melon than almost any other 
sort. Will carry well up to 200 miles; not recommended for ship- 
ping any great distance.
