BABY WATERMELON 
New Hampshire 
The New Little Midget 
or Baby Watermelon 
itis wonderful! Delicious! 
So popular that we were literally swamped with 
orders for it last year. Thousands of our customers 
grew it. Market-gardeners grew quantities and sold 
them like hot cakes. Home-garden folks grew them 
for themselves and to serve their friends, cutting the 
melons in half, cold and fresh and sugar-sweet right 
from the refrigerator. 
We urge you who have not yet had them to order 
freely and grow them this year. Plant a row—or two 
or three, if you have the room—and pick them as they 
ripen. When they break off easily from the vine, they 
are ripe. If they hold fast, leave them on a little 
longer. An ounce will plant two rows each 50 feet 
long. The seed is smaller than other melons, so plant 
6 or 8 seeds every 8 feet in the row, or 2 to 3 seeds 
every 2 feet. A packet sows 20 feet, 3 to 4 pounds an 
acre. Put this on the order sheet now so you will not 
forget it.

year to sell at market could 
not keep up with the de-

NEW HAMPSHIRE MIDGET WATERMELON. So good, so charming to serve, so little (just 5 to 6 inches long), so wonderful it 
was awarded the Gold Medal in the All-America Selections. The flesh is just as red and juicy and sugar-swect in flavor as the big 
melons, Be very sure you grow this good little melon this year.
