ANOTHER BIG MELON
SOLO FOR THIRTEEN
FIFTY—SHFPED WEST
G. H. Long, registry cierk in the
Weatherford post office, has pur-
chased the lpl-pound water melon i
that v, as grown by J. C. Evans near |
towii, and the monstro has* been *
crated and sliiped to his brother-in-
law. F. E. Cox, in Soniertton, Ari-
zona Mr. Cox formerly lived in
Weatherford, and as is usually the
case, when a Darker County man
incites the history of the large
melons grown here, had his word
disputed and doubted so often that
he decided to place an order for a
century marked melon. The melon
cost Mr. Long $13.50 and the ex.
press will raise these figures to
something like $20.00, a whale of a
price to pay for a water melon.
However, those strangers who live
in a foreign country, are compelled
to back up their statements with
actual proof, although the cost is j
heavy.
This melon was a cross between
a Toni Watson and a Triumph and
is the prettiest melon shipped from
Weatherford this season.
