SOUTHERN GROWN WATERMELON SEED 
A very large part of the watermelon seed generally offered by the seed 
trade is southern grown, and for those who wish this seed we offer the 
following up-to-date varieties. This seed is grown by one of the best producers 
in the United States. We would particularly like to call your attention to the 
new Darlington for home market and Blacklee for shipping; the two outstand- 
ing recent watermelon introductions. 
The new wilt resistant Dixie Queen, No. 110, which we are adding this year 
is a decided improvement over the old strain.
