GREEN FLESHED OSAGE MUSK MELON—The green-fiesh- ed Osago is tho result of several years' careful selection, being a sort to which our attention was called by fineness of grain, intense sweet- ness and tho bright green color of flesh. It is very hardy and very prolific, and in sizo and shapo is very like the red fleshed Osage, but is bright green before ripening instead of tho black green of tho Osage. In ripening it turns to a bright yellow, rotaining its green color in the grooves, while its flosh becomes a beautiful pea green. Wo have had implo opportunities of noting its quality, and, in our judgment, it is suporior to any other grceu fleshed Musk Melon in quality, while In closoness of grain it has no peer in its class. It is sure to take its place at tho head.
