Honey Ball Melon 

The vines of the Honey Ball are very prolific and seem to stand more dry 
weather than most other varieties; the melon in appearance is similar to the 
Honey Dew but is much smaller and more uniform in size, averaging about 5 
inches in diameter, nearly round in shape and slightly netted; has a very thick 
flesh with a spicy flavor, to most people superior to the Honey Dew. 
It keeps well and is a good shipper. For distant markets handles about the 
same as the Honey Dew. For home use and nearby markets, it should not be 
picked until it will slip from the vine; it is in best condition for eating when 
the rind will give under pressure of the thumb. It can be served in halves 
like cantaloupes.
