. 1902 vegetables, flowers, grains & fruits : 22nd annual catalogue / Ford Seed Nursery stock Ohio Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. EMERALD GEM. Emerald Gem. Extremely early; skin smooth, surface ribbed, color deep emerald green; very thick, salmon-colored flesh, and ripens thoroughly to the very thin green rind. The flavor is sweet and lus- cious. The vines are hardy, thrifty and very prolific. Our stock of this is fine. f?fe-»vport. (Henderson's.) This is one of the finest flavored green fleshed varieties; ripens early, fruits almost round. When ripe it is golden yellow, closely netted, slightly ribbed, medium size. A good one for family use. /^Columlms. A new melon of great excellence. When fully ripe the skin is of a bright glossy yel- low, nearly covered with a thick, whitish netting. The melons are of medium size, nearly round, with very thick green flesh, leaving but a very small seed cavity. The quality is simply superb. The Columbus was never known to burst open at either end, a fault of some others. /Panl Rose. This has become one of the leading small yellow fleshed varieties for shipping in bas- kets. The melons are of uniform shape and size, averaging about five inches in diameter, nearly round, solid, seed cavity small. The flesh is of a rich salmon color and of good quality. It is es- pecially valuable as a shipping melon and its attrac- tive appearance gives it a ready sale. Pkt. 4c.; oz. 8c.; 14 lb. 25c.; lb. 60c. ^^iving'ston's 3Iark:et. Its beautiful appear- ance, uniformly large size, close, strong netting, desirable form, make it unusually attractive on the market, combined with its great productiveness, renders it specially valuable for the market gar- dener. It is green fleshed; seed cavity very small, remarkably vigorous in growth and hardiness, which enables it to withstand drouths, blight and bugs. Never bursts at the blossom end. Pkt. 5c.; oz. 10c.; 14 lb. 25c.; lb. 75c. t Jersey Belle.
