ARKANSAS TRAVELER (Specialty)—A large, long, weighty- Melon, Kind dark green, with waving stripes of black ; in- terior always solid, the edible portion extending to witbin half ait inch of the skin, flesh brilliant red, sweet, tender, crystalline, very juicy and altogether quite superior. Seeds variable in color and small. Ripening as an intermediate. A very hard rind and therefore a good shipper. No better Melon, except the Boss, has ever been offered to lovers of choice Watermelons ; in size it is not a mammoth—no large Melons are tlrst-class in quality. In color of flesh it is deep- est red, in texture crystalline, in flavor sugary. The flesh is solid throughout, without any sign of either core or cavity, and the edible portion extends to within a half inch of the skin. We cannot say enough in praise of the Arkansas Traveler. Pkts. 5c. and 10c.; per oz. 15c. LONG DIXIE.—The chunky Dixie was grown largely during the Sum- mers of 1891, 1892 and 1893 as a market Melon, and with unexampled satisfaction. We have selected a long form of it which will supersede the Kolb Gem, compared with which it is infinitely better, vine vigor- ous, equally early, quite as productive, weighs as much, darker in rind, in form long to hall long, flesh deep red without core or cavity, more DARK GREEN RIND ICING.— and flavor same as Light Icing, bu( dark skinned.
