A very distinct new melon of unique cliaraeler and most sujierb flavor, first ) introduced by us last year. For illustration and descrijition, see Novelties Jor 189U. BECK'S COLUMBUS. Per pkt. 10 cts. BURPEE'S NETTED GEM (Golden Gem, or Golden Jenny). The illustration, engraved from one of the melons, shows their shape, which is almost a perfect globe. They grow remarkably uniform, weighing from one and a quarter to one and a half pounds each. They are thiek-meated, the flesh is light green in color, and uniformly of fine, luscious flavor; skin green, regularly ribbed and thickly netted. Very prolific and extra early in ripening—no variety being earlier. It is to- day more largely grown for the Philadelphia markets than any other variety. Per pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.: M lb 30 cts.; per lb EARLY JENNY LIND. A popular, small, early variety, flattened at each end ; ribbed and closely net^ ted. Flesh light green, and generally of fine flavor. Per pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.; % lb 25 cts.; per B) 70 cts. OSAGE, or MILLER CREAM. Although introduced as a separate variety, we cannot see any difference be- tween The Osage and Tlie Miller Cream Melon. Strong-growing and productive; thin, green skin; slightly netted; flesh a rich salmon color and very thick, of sweet flavor, but not nearly so luscious as The Emerald Gem. It is quite popular in New York State and in Illinois, and it is a good melon, although we do not consider its quality " the finest flavored of all," as has been claimed. Per pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.; ^ lb 25 cts.; per lb 75 BURPEE'S BAYVIEW MELON. BURPEE'S BAYVIEW. This celebrated var
