KLECKLEY NO. 6. 90 days. A new wilt-resistant 
melon. It is of the same type as Kleckley’s Sweet 
with all its fine qualities and size, to which wilt 
resistance has been added. Especially valuable for 
market and home gardeners who have not been able 
to grow melons previously; it is widely adapted. 
To get maximum stands on infested soils delay thin- 
ning until small plants have grown past damage 
stage. Seeds creamy white with trace of brown. 
WATERMELON, Kleckley No. 6 
Most of our Watermelon seed is grown in Florida and is taken from fully 
matured melons grown only for seed. We feel we have the best strains of Water- 
melon seed to produce the finest crop of melons that can be grown.
