TURNIP, PURPLE TOP 
WATERMELONS 
Striped Klondike. Right for the present 
this variety is the most popular water- 
melon in the Southern Oregon district, 
both for home market and shipping. The 
flavor is fine, texture unexcelled, a good 
shipper and very attractive with its 
mottled skin. Thin rind with small 
brown seeds. Matures about the same 
time as Brown Seeded Klondike; in about 
85 days. We suggest that you plant this 
variety for main crop. 
Monarch Brown Seeded Klondike. (Early 
maturing strain.) Flesh deep red, very 
sweet, flavor of the best, rind thin, dark 
green and tough enough to allow ship- 
ping to nearby market. Stem end square, 
center full, tapering slightly to the blos- 
som end. A favorite on the Pacific Coast. 
One of the best flavored melons we have 
ever offered. Usually weighs about 25 
pounds. We offer the earliest maturing 
strain. You can buy cheaper seed, but 
never better. 
Klondike R7 (Wilt resistant). Developed 
by Dr. D. R. Porter of the University of 
California. Resistant to fusarium wilt. 
Quite similar to Brown Seeded Klondike 
Strain, but when young the melons show 
a distinct bloom and at maturity they 
are smoother and show less furrowing. 
Kleckley’s Sweet. 
weight 35 pounds. 
(85 days.) Average 
Color is dark green 
with a bright red flesh that is tender 
and melting. Not a good shipper. Seeds 
white with darkened tips; also known as 
Monte Cristo.
