AsM CASABAS 
Y2 oz. to 100-foot row; | Ib. per acre. Plant 34-inch deep. 
Cult In general the culture for casabas is the same as for 
ulture melon. Plant casabas according to locality, from February 
15 until June 15, in furrows 8 feet apart. For late shipping many are 
planted from June 1 to July 15. Casabas may be taken from the vine 
as soon as they lose the green lustre, but should not be eaten until 
the hard rind of such varieties as the Golden Beauty will give 
slightly under pressure of the thumb. The Improved Hybrid in par- 
ticular is not at its best until quite an impression can be made with 
the thumb as in a mellow apple. The best way to keep the casaba 
late into the fall is to gather them together in the hill, leaving them 
attached to the vines and covering them completely with the vines. 
105 days. An AG M introduction and one of the 
Golden Beauty most popular of the casabas. Melons have a 
beautiful golden color at maturity with a wrinkled skin. Flesh is white 
in color, very sweet and spicy. Good for shipping as it stands long 
journeys very well. An excellent sort for fall and late consumption. 
Properly stored they will remain edible for months. (Pkt. 10c)
