Klondike Striped Blue 
Ribbon 
90 days. The best small melon 
we have ever seen, considering 
both eating and _ shipping 
qualities. Flesh is deep red, 
sweet, stringless and melting. 
Rind light green, conspicuously 
striped with darker green; ad- 
vertising itself on the market; 
oe Ne thin, hard and tough, making 
Burrell’s select strains of Klondike it desirable for shipping. The 
Watermelons are outstanding in firm flesh will keep many 
uniformity and quality 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 becoming one of the most popular 
sorts. The Blue Ribbon strain is resistant to wilt.

Burrell’s Klondike 99 days. A large selection of the Klon- 
dike developed for southern and eastern 
use. Weight averages about 30 pounds when well grown; we 
have grown them weighing 35 pounds or more. Fruits oblong, 
slightly tapering to the blossom end like the other Klondikes. 
Color dark green, deep red meat; thin, tough rind, slightly ribbed 
when ripe. Good shipper and of excellent eating quality. Seeds 
large, mostly dark brown and black. Do not recommend for Cali- 
fornia planting, but we urge Southern Shippers to try limited 
plantings as this may be a winner. .
