This fine fruit is much more delicious when eaten fresh -Tom the vines than when allowed to stand for days in the aeat of the market. Grow them like Cucumbers. Emerald GemâIn quality this leads all, and every home garden should include it. Medium size, round, with salmon flesh, so rich, sweet and juicy that it needs to be saten with a spoon. No other Muskmelon can compare with it in eating qualities, and it. is the sort of all others for the home garden. It is rather soft and perishable for marketing, except near home. Where known in our villages and cities, the Emerald Gem easily brings louble the price of any other sort, and for gardeners who deliver the melons to customers, or to the market direct, this is the most, profitable, where it is known. Pkt., 10c.: ozâ 15c; lb., 85c. â Banana âA curious sort that is quite popular. Melons very slender, largest at the bottom end, and two or three feet long. A very fragrant variety, and if not picked until thoroughly ripe, of very good quality and flavor. Its flesh and flavor, as well as its shape, remind one of a great luscious Banana.
