THE 
TENDERSWEEET 
Variety No. 4 
(Yellow Flesh) 
70 POUND AVERAGE 
Without a doubt this 
is one of the best and 
sweetest melons grown. 
Some people do not like 
yellow flesh melons, but 
in our opinion they are 
much better than any 
red flesh variety. The 
Tendersweet grows to 
a very large size, often 
weighing fifty and sixty 
pounds, you will note 
the huge size of the 
melons in this photo- 
graph as compared to 
the man’s hat, this is a 
seventy pound average, 
they will grow to ninety 
pounds under favorable 
conditions and proper cultivation. The rind is a 
dark green with a very plain mottled stripe of a 
lighter shade from end to end, it is thick and stands 
hauling well; flesh is yellow and very tender; seed 
white with black rim and tips with occasional side 
marking of black. It’s an early melon, maturing 
about one week ahead of the Black Diamond type.

QUEEN OF PARKER—Variety No. 5 (Yellow Flesh) 
This melon is one of the best yellow flesh mel- 
ons we ever cut. Its shape is a little longer than 
thick and its flesh is a deep rich golden yellow 
and very tender and sweet. The seeds are black 
and it has a dark green rind with mottled green 
stripe. The Queen of Parker is the largest of all 
the yellow fleshed melons. It has the largest heart 
of all the melon family. Many make the mistake 
of taking it from the vine before the heart is fully 
ripe. Leave it on the vine until the heart is as yel- 
low as the meat around the seed, then you.really. 
32 WILLHITE MELON SEED FARMS, Poolville, Texas 
have one that is good to eat. On account of its 
having an extra large heart, it takes the hean 
longer to ripen. They grow fully as large as the 
Florida Giant or Jumbo Triumph. There were hun- 
dreds in our seed fields this year that weighed 
from seventy-five to one hundred pounds. It is a 
wonderful drought resister and produces a crop 
almost without rain. It seems it is immune to wilt 
and other melon diseases, and not a hard center 
was found in the entire crop. % lb. 90c; ¥% Ib.
