WILT-RESISTANT VARIETIES 
In sections where watermelons can not be successfully grown 
on account of “wilt” we suggest the use of the following wilt 
resistant varieties. 
HYBRID DIXIE QUEEN WATERMELON.

shape and color rind as the regular Dixie Queen, but 
seems to be entirely wilt-resistant. It should be given 
a trial by all growers interested in hybrid vegetables.

DIXIE QUEEN. (80 days.) A new wilt-resistant

melons. 30 to 35 pounds. Pkt., 10¢€; oz., 25¢; 1% Ib.,

ety of much merit. The melons have a light green rind

Experiment Station, and is practically 100% wilt

are very vigorous and prolific and for large size the vines should 
be pruned to two melons. 30 to 35 pounds. Pkt., 10¢; oz., 20e;
