JENNY LIND. Jenny Lind—This is one of the very earliest melons grown. It is small, round and flattened at the ends, deeply ribbed and thickly netted, which makes it valuable for shipping. An excellent variety for the restaurant trade. The flesh is a light green and one of the sweetest of this class. It is very prolific as well as early. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, ^lb. 25c, lb. 75c Rocky Ford—This fine variety is an improvement on the well known Netted Gem and is largely grown in Colorado and shipped by the carload to the eastern cities. It is much sought after by hotel and restaurant keepers on account of its ex- ceptionally fine flavor. The flesh is greenish white in color, very juicy and rich and good clear to the rind. It is medium in size, of round oval form and a most excellent keeper. Its size, shape and fine quality, and being a good shipper, will com- mend it alike to the family table and the market / gardener. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, J^lb. 25c lb. 75c Columbus—This is one of the best Melons. In shape it is nearly round and almost entirely free from ribs and seams. Color when ripe light buff, thickly covered with whitish netting. Flesh green, very thick and solid, leaving a very small seed cavity. The flavor is of the very best. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, y4lb. 20c, lb. 60c.
