CURRIE'S MILWAUKEE MARKET THE BEST MELON FOR THE HOME GARDEN AND MARKET. Exceedingly Prolific, Strong, Vigorous Grower, Unsurpassed in Flavor. A wonderful luxuriant grower, combining more good qualities than any other now on the market. It is exceedingly productive and especially fine flavored; very attractive in appearance, medium in size and ripens medium early. The flesh is a deep salmon color, thick, firm and solid, and possesses a rich, aromatic flavor. Developed here and grown and marketed locally for a number of years Curries Milwaukee Market on account of its distinct and undeniably superior qualities has for some time been recognized as a standard American variety of the first rank, and it is now grown by home and pro- fessional gardeners to the number of many thou- sands throughout the country. The fruit is very uniform in size, and every Melon is a good one, sweet and luscious to the rind. As a market garden- er's Melon we believe it has no equal, and it is an excellent shipper.
