Osage or Improved Millers Cream Muskmelon
Medium to large sized, oval, slightly ribbed, dark green in color, covered more or less with shallow netting. The flesh is deep salmon color and very thick. This melon is only a few days later than the small extra early varieties, yet twice as large. It does best in a cool climate and is the most popular melon on the Northwest. The flavor is one of the finest, rich and sugary. We have taken a great deal of pains to develop the thick, deep, rich colored, and finely flavored flesh of this sort, and a careful comparison on our trial grounds proves it unequaled. Pkt. 5C; oz. 10C; 2 oz. 18C; ¼ lb. 30C; ½ lb. 55C; lb. 90c.
