This Watermelon is a product of California, to which State we are indebted for many of our most luscious fruits and vegetables. The flesh is a rich golden-yellow, but, unlike other varieties of this character, it is entirely free from coarseness, and it is sweet, luscious and melting. It grows to large size, oblong shape, with dark green rind. Many persons have never seen a yellow-fleshed Watermelon, and to these it will prove an interesting novelty. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 1-lb., 50 cts.; lb., $ AILSA CRAIG ONION. A very large, yellow-fleshed variety of Onion which is popular with English gardeners. It resembles the American variety, " Prizetaker," but will grow much larger and more globular in form. The skin is an attractive straw-color, flesh is mild, and the Onions keep remarkably well for such large size. It will prove valuable to those who grow Onions for exhibi- tion purposes, as it is the most attractive and showy Onion that can be grown. For producing the largest and best Onions, it is best to sow seed in the hotbed early in spring and transplant when of sufficient size.
