10 HARVEY SEED COMPANY, INCORPORATED, BUFFALO, N. Y. 
Muskmelon 
MUSKMELONS 
Select light warm soil, plant in hills six feet apart 
each way. The hills should be prepared by digging 
out the soil a foot deep and thoroughly mixing in 
a couple of shovel fulls of well-rotted manure, 
filling up a little above the level. Planting should be 
deferred until warm, settled weather. One ounce 
will plant 100 hills. 
Bender's Surprise—This melon has a thin cream 
colored skin and thick salmon colored flesh. 
Early, very productive and of delicious flavor, 
but grows to twice the size. 
Hearts of Gold—A deep orange fleshed variety 
with thickly netted skin. The melons are almost 
perfectly round, very sweet and of delicious 
flavor. 
Honey Rock—New early variety. Five to six inches 
in diameter, rind hard, flesh medium thick and 
deep salmon in color. 
Delicious—A large early deep orange melon that 
ripens about two weeks earlier than Bender’s. 
The melons are creamy yellow outside when ripe 
and covered with fine netting. An excellent 
melon for the home garden but not as good a 
keeper as Bender’s.

ONIONS 
The onion should have a clean loamy and very 
rich soil. The use of well-rotted compost is very 
beneficial, and onions will do well if sown on the 
same piece of land for a succession of years. Sow 
seed as early as possible in drills fourteen inches 
apart and half an inch deep. As onions grow on 
top of the ground they may be allowed to remain 
pretty thick, no matter if they crowd each other. 
In hoeing, which should be frequently done, do 
not cover the young bulbs with earth. One ounce 
of seed will sow a bed 5 by 20 feet.
