This is the largest melon we had seen this season and its quality fully sustained the reputation these boys have estab- lished in this line. The Wiggers own the old Ewin place, which was made famous for melons by Charlie, Bob and Billy Ewin successively. The soil seems peculiarly adapted to mel- on raising, not only growing prolific and to enormous size, but having a delicious flavor peculiarly their own. Bound Over in Sum $1,000.
