This grand melon is the most desirable type of the 
Itocky Ford melons and a vast acreage of this sort is 
now grown in the famous Kocky Ford melon district. 
Several years ago the Rocky Ford Cantaloupe Seed 
Hreeders Association began a systematic effort to de- 
velop a salmon-flcshed melon that would meet every 
requirement of their needs, and Salmon-Tint No. 25 is the 
result of their efforts. This is an early melon of the 
Solid netted type that is so very desirable. Very small 
•seed cavity, with thick, luscious flesh of genuine salmon 
tint shading to green near the rind. A splendid keeper, 
stands shipping well. Ripe fruits in 75 to 80 days. Our 
special strain of this grand melon, and in fact all our 
melon seed is grown from hand sorted selected fruits 
and will please the planter who wants only a 10c packet 
or the associations that need .'iOO lbs. or more. Packet,
