PAUL ROSE MUSK MELON. Mr. Vaughan, the introducer of this new variety, says: "In the "Paul Eose" we are offering the best Musk Melon introduced for many years. It is a successful cross of the Osage with the Netted Gem and combines the sweetness of the former with the fine netting of^the Gem. It also has a firmness of rind and "cheesy" structure of flesh peculiarly its own and superior in these respects to any melon in existence. It surpasses all melons as a shipper and long keeper and no melon equals it in smallness of seed cavity, nor approaches it in firmness. Mr. Paul Eose, one of the most extensive and suc- cessful growers in the United States, has produced this as a result of six years' critical selection for a basket melon of perfect quality for the shipping trade. They are of uniform shape as shown in cut and average about VA lbs. each in weight, a size most eon- venient to market in baskets. Claimed to be as sweet as the Osage, better shipper than Netted Gem and never to break down in shipping.
