WILLHITE’S IMPROVED JUMBO TRIUMPH—Variety No. 18 
ty 128 Pounds—Still Growing 
See another picture outside of back cover, page 44 
This is a slightly oblong melon, color very rich 
dark green with slight mottled effect shown on 
some of them, but nothing that could be called a 
stripe. Its flesh is blood red and unlike the old 
type of Jumbo. Its cutting qualities are good. 
Seed are black. We have, by careful seed selec- 
tion during the past nineteen years, greatly im- 
proved this melon. Its cutting qualities are far 
ahead of the old type. They will ship crated any- 
where. Many Jumbos that weigh more than one 
hundred pounds are shipped from Parker County 

via express every year. The average size that 
our seed were taken from, weighed about seventy 
pounds. It ripens 10 days later than the Watson, 
or in about 100 days. It is wilt resistant to a de- 
gree, there being no wilt whatever in our fields 
this year. They come in at a time when there are 
but few other melons on the market. No other 
melon will grow so large. If you want to astonish 
your neighbors, plant a few acres and you will 
have them coming for miles around to see them.

GRAYSTONE—VARIETY NO. 53 
ALL AMERICAN WINNER 1933 
This is our second year to grow and list this fine melon 
which was an ALL AMERICAN WINNER in 1933 and intro- 
duced by one of our leading seedsmen. The rind has outside 
markings of the Stone Mountain, thin and tough enough to 
ship and haul well. They will grow to 60 pounds under favor- 
able conditions, average maturity ninety to ninety-five days; 
shape large oval with block ends. It is one of the most deli- 
cious flavored, fine textured, sweetest melons we have ever 
grown. Seeds are white and small, they go a long way when 
planting. The vines are very prolific and produce a heavy 
growth, covering the melons well which prevents sunburn. Be 
sure to try these seed. See price sheet for prices. LIBERAL 
PACKAGE, ANY VARIETY, 25c.
