SELECTION 
No. 112 Hale’s Best 
A UNIFORM HALE’S BEST STRAIN OF A DEFINITELY 
FIXED TYPE, INTRODUCED IN 1931. 
The No. 112 was the first of the Hale’s Best strains introduced, and 
it quickly established a place for itself among the trade. It still holds that 
place despite the advent of newer strains, and many growers still prefer 
it to any other variety. 
The No. 112 ranges in size from standards to jumbos, heavy-netted 
and run to very even sizes. In this melon we have retained the qualities

of earliness, prolificness and hardiness that were found in the old regular 
Hale’s Best. It has a thick, firm, golden-flesh and is sweet of flavor. 
This is a splendid uniform melon of fixed type and will reproduce 
exactly as we have described it. 
Since its introduction in 1931, these qualities have proven to be de¬ 
pendable and many growers are using the No. 112 as a main crop variety. 
If you have planted this melon before, we know that you will want to do 
so again. If you have not tried it, let us suggest that you do so this season.
