Chiids' Ruby Cold—A variety introduced by vis. The most beautiful table Melon grown. Fine for table decorations, cut crosswise and alternated with slices of deep red melons. In shape the melons are a long oval, two feet or more in length, and will weigh 40 to 60 pounds each. The flesh is a rich, solid, golden-yellow, with star-like center of carmine or ruby-red, almost too beautiful to think of eating, yet its quality is as superior as its ap- pearance. There is absolutely no core or hard spots in it, but the flesh is juicy, sweet, luscious, melting in the mouth almost like ice-cream. Lasts long in perfect condition without getting "stringy" or "; Early, and sure cropper. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; lb., $ Hungarian Honey -One of the most delicious varieties known, of an almost honey-like sweetness. Round, dark green melons that will average about ten pounds each; flesh i ich and melting. Extra early and fine for the Northern States. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; lb., $ Phlnney—An early, oval variety, prolific, sweet and crisp. One of the best. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; lb., 75c Mountain Sweet—A fine old sort, so deliciously sweet and tender that it will almost melt in one's mouth. The best, variety for the extreme North, where few Water- melons succeed. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; lb., 75c. Seminole—An extra early large melon, of superior quality and a profuse bearer. Melons either gray or light green in color. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c. Koib's Cem—The celebrated Southern shipping variety. Will keep thirty days after pulling, and as the shell is very hard rarely bursts in shipping. Large and prolific, juicy and good. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; lb., 60c. Mammoth Iro
