CURRIE'S MILWAUKEE MARKET THE BEST MELOX FOR TIIK HOME AXD 5IARKET. Exceedingly Prolific, Strong. Vigorous Grower. in Flavor. A wonderfully luxuriant grower, combining more good qualities than any other now on the market. It is exceedingly productive and especially fine flavored; very attractive in appearance, medium in size and rip- ens medium early. The flesh is a deep salmon, color, thick, firm and solid, and possesses a rich, aromatic flavor. The fruit is very uniform in size, and every Melon is a good one, sweet and luscious to the rind. As a market gardener's Melon we believe it has no equal, and it is an excellent shipper. I Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; % lb. 85c; % lb. ; 1 lb. $ I Slilwaukee Market. CURRIES'S SELECT OSAGE.
