MCCLEAEY S IMPROVED JENNY LIND MU8KMELON. McCleary's Improved Jenny Lind This valuable strain is the result of many years' careful selection and improvement on the old-fashioned Jenny Lind, made by Mr. John McCleary, one of the best-known truckers of Burlington County, N. J. These melons realize handsome prices in Philadelphia markets on account of their great earliness, being larger, roughing up better, and keep- ing fully a week longer than other strains. Invaluable for first early, and of delicious quality. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; 34 lb., 35c, lb., $, postpaid; by express, lb., $ ; 5 lbs. and over, $ per lb.
