Blue Watson 

This is a distinct variety of the Tom Watson. The rind is dark- 
blue-green. The seed are heht brown to brown smeared, very similar to 
the old type Watson. The flesh is deep red and sweet. The rind is tough 
making it a good shipper. In general shape it is like the Watson, grows 
fully as large and every melon cuts red. When packed into cars make 
attractive appearance, dark glossy green rind, and should sell to good 
advantage. If you plan to plant a long variety of melon I know of no 
other that I could recommend better, especially for both local and 
shipping.

GREY JACKET OR ARNOLD 

The Arnold, or Grey Jacket, is of recent introduction, is long and 
thick. The rind is grey with small threads of very light green cross 
woven. The rind is tough and will stand hard usage, and is prolific, 
free from hard centers, flesh red and sweet. Creamy white seeds smear- 
ed with light brown. Grows large uniform melons and is very satisfactory.
