very productive melon 
popular throughout the South for long distance shipping. Fruits 
very dark green, large, nearly round; flesh firm, red and of ex- 
cellent quality, although slightly coarser than Dixie Queen. More 
acres of this variety are grown than any other.

unable to grow enough to supply the demand. This is the Texas 
Giant strain.

satisfied or not, plant a portion of your crop to our seed of this;
