Over this highly manured soil put 4 to 6 inches of fresh earth and plant the seeds in this, covering them about an inch deep. It is important that the seed should not be planted before the ground becomes warm and dry, as the young plants are very sen- sitive to cold and wet. KLONDIKE. Bailey's Genuine Strain. This New Melon is one of th'e very finest yet introduced—several thousand acres are grown every year in the Imperial Valley and we pre- dict that soon as its merits become known generally it will supercede Tnost of the varieties now1 in cultivation. The meat is a rich, bright red and very .appetizing. The rind is thick enough to protect the melon in shipping- but it is not a thick, heavy rind. You cannot go wrong in plant- ing Bfailey's Genuine Klondike. Pkt 10c; oz. 20c; lb. $ ANGELINO. White seeded. One of the most attractive in appearance of all watermelons—its large size, beautiful dark green rind with tinges of gold showing through the green. Bright red flesh, clear to the rind, entirely free from fibre, simply melts in your mouth. If picker will note the gold showing through the green as soon as it is ripe, he need never pick an unripe melon. Prices: Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; % lb. 35c; lb. $ ANGELINO. Black seeded. Practically the same as the white seeded variety with all its delicious flavor. Prices: Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; % lb. 35c; lb. $ BAILEY'S SELECTED KLECKLY SWEET. Unquestion- ably the finest melon for Dhe home garden and near by marke
