eu " , 88 days. An excellent flavored melon 
Schoon s Hard Shell somewhat on the order of Bender’s 
Surprise in shape and general appearance. It is valuable, especially 
for its extra hard shell which makes it fine for marketing as it will 
stand up better than most varieties. It is deeply ribbed, covered 
with a grayish yellow rope-like netting except for the distinct 
stripes or interstices. Skin is a beautiful yellow, flesh is medium 
in grain, red salmon in color, and the sweet, tasty flavor calls for 
more. Weight, about 6 to 7 pounds.
