Spring 1902 annual catalogue improved northern grown farm and garden seeds, hardy shrubs, roses, and small fruit plants / Farmer Seed Nursery stock Minnesota Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. Paemkb Sekd Company, Faribault, THE ROCKY FORD MUSK MELON- This melon has taken its name from the littlu town of Rocky Ford, Colorado, where t\v growing and shipping of these Melons ha; become the leading industry of the town The reason for the widespread popularity of these mielons is two-fold. First its superli table qualities, being firm, sweet, and re- markably soilid. Second, its wonderful sihlp-' ping qualities, which enable it to be carried great distances, and yet arrive in first-class condition for market. It is very early, andi •wonderfully productive. The fruit is of me- dium size, oval shaped, heavily netted and very solid. The flesh is green, thick and juicy. There is a great demand for this pop- ular melon. We obtained our seed at high cost and it comes direct from Rocky Ford, and can be relied upon as the genuine stock.
