Tip Top Muskmelon
This kind cannot be excelled for its eating qualities. The flesh is a bright salmon color, remarkably thick, sweet and spicy. It varies from round to slightly oblong and with a green skin turning to lemon color as it approaches maturity. The netting, on the indistinct ribs, is slight and the melon makes a very attractive showing, both on the exterior and when cut.
