OLD TIME TENNESSEE MUSKMELON—Variety No. 30 
The Tennessee Muskmelon, shown above, is 
one of the largest, if not the largest muskmelon 
grown. We grow them here on our farms to weigh 
upwards of forty pounds each. They are long and 
corrugated, exceedingly fine flavored and are so 
smelly that one can be easily found in the dark. 
Our seed for this type was obtained from Tennes- 
see, where they are planted widely for home and 
local market. Besides being very palatable when 
fully ripe, this giant muskmelon is quite a curi- 
osity, attracting widespread attention when dis- 
played on your roadside stand. ¥% Ib. $1.40; % lb. 
$2.65; % lb. $3.90; 1 lb $5.00. All plus postage.

TEXAS RESISTANT No. 1 CANTALOUPE — Variety No. 46 
(Aphid and Downy Mildew Resistant) 
This Aphid and Downy Mildew Resistant Canta- 
loupe is fast becoming one of the most popular 
cantaloupes on the market. The vine is stout and 
vigorous, not unusually large but having dense 
foliage that covers the fruit well and protects 
them from sunburn. Leaves are thick and of a 
characteristic shape and color unlike those of the 
common Hale's Best strains. The persistence and 
longevity of the vines are unusual and the plants 
will remain green, even in the absence of disease 
and insects, long after the vines of the Hale's Best 
strains have died. Drought and unfavorable soil 
conditions affect the vines very little and they still 
have the appearance of full vigor after the re- 
moval of the first fruits, setting new fruit in a very 
short time. The fruit is a desirable size, about 4% 
to 5% inches in diameter, running larger when 
planted in the spring than from fall plantings. 
Netting is moderate, the rind firm and will usu- 
ally withstand shipping when harvested in full 
slip but not fully ripe. Flesh is a rich salmon color 
with a fine firm texture. The flavor is sweet and 
slightly musky. The seed cavity is rather small, 
seeds compact and few in number. Matures in 
about 85 days on early plantings, and 60 days on 
late plantings. 
The variety is very prolific, almost always pro- 
ducing a good crop, sometimes at the rate of 500 
bushels of ungraded cantaloupes per acre from
