New H. B. 1937. 
1_| R 1937 **5 days. The latest improvement in H. B. Cantaloupes, 
n. u . i 7J/ Tim H. B. varieties are unquestionably the leaders with 
cantaloupe shippers. So much work is being done in the way of im¬ 
proving the stocks and so many strains introduced that we have 
decided each year to list what we consider to be the best from the 
shipper’s standpoint as that year’s model, hence the 1937. This is 
about the same in size as the Improved H. B. No. 36, although it holds 
its size better through to the last picking. Color and texture of flesh 
the same, but hardly as thick meated. Netting heaviest of the H. B.’s, 
and is less inclined to run to slick melons in the later pickings than 
any of these strains yet introduced.

Saving Special Stock Seed of H. B. No. 10. 
J |_| D | ft 87 days. In some of the growing sec- 
Improvea M. D. INO. I U tions where melons naturally grow too 
large, there is call for a melon slightly smaller than the H. B. No. 36. 
For this trade, we recommend the H. B. No. 10. Netting is finer and 
more closely spaced than the H. B. No. 36. In size and exterior ap¬ 
pearance, it resembles Burrell’s Superfecto. Packs 15’s. Flesh thick, 
deep salmon, sweet and of fine quality.

(Pkt., 10c) (oz., 15c) (% lb., 40c) (lb., $1.50) (5 lbs., $6.60) prepaid. 
No. 1 SEED, saved only from melons that would be good shippers. 
(Pkt., 5c) (oz., 10c) (% lb., 25c) (lb., 70c) (5 lbs., $3.00)* prepaid.
