Klondike Watermelon Watermelons
Flesh very deep red of excellent quality, color of rind dark green, slightly ribbed when ripe. Oblong, square ended, the stem end is thicker than the blossom end. Seeds small spotted white and brown. I grew a fine crop of extra good stock this year. Klondike Watermelon is one of the finest for the home garden and a neaby market but not a good shipper. A favorite with California planters. Price-(10c per pkt.) (20c per oz.) (60c per ¼ lb.) ($2.25 per lb.) ($2.00 per lb in 10-lb. Lots) ($1.85 per lb. In 100-lb. Lots and up). Prepaid.
