WILLHITE'S NEW 
WHITE SEEDED WATSON 
—Variety No. 44 
It is without a doubt the largest grow- 
ing Watson melon and will grow well 
over a hundred pounds, if properly 
pruned and growing conditions are fa- 
vorable. It has a blue-green shiny rind, 
although not quite as blue as the Blue 
Rind Watson. Seeds are white to cream, 
same size as Regular Watson seed, 
‘ost melons same shape, some few run 
‘aore blunt ends. Red flesh, the vines 
grow rank and very vigorous, having 
large leaves which cover the melons 
-and help to prevent sunburn, they will 
grow to a much larger and more uni- 
form size than any Watson. We had the 
best crop this year that we have ever 
grown of this variety. You could walk 
all over the field without touching the 
around on melons weighing from 
fifty to eighty-five pounds, and some 
weighed as much as 100 pounds, I 
strongly advise you to try this fine 
melon if it’s tonnage and size you want.

THE WILLHITE WONDER MELON—Variety No. 21 
The Willhite Wonder is a medium long melon 
with block ends. Color of rind is a beautiful dark 
shade of green. When young it shows a distinct 
stripe of irregularity, but as they ripen this stripe 
disappears almost completely. The rind is tough 
enough to stand hauling well. They grow to enor- 
mous size, often weighing up to ninety pounds. 
Vines grow rank and vigorous. We often have 
them grow to cover middles twenty feet wide and 
have grown as much as thirty-five tons per acre 
that average sixty pounds each. It resembles the 
6 WILLHITE MELON SEED FARMS, Poolville, Texas 
Russell's Improved very closely. Has seed from 
white to light brown mottled color. Its flesh is red, 
very sweet and tender with the delicate flavor of 
Improved Kleckly Sweet. Date of maturity approx- 
imately ninety days. Do not confuse this melon 
with Wondermelon or Blue Wonder as is so easily 
done when making out your order for seed. Be 
sure to give variety number 21 on order blank.
