DESCRIPTION OF THE “SEED BREEDERS,” 
The “Seed Breeders” is a Hale’s Best strain with the thick, deep pink flesh of 
this variety. It is a heavily netted melon that will stand handling and shipment 
and reach the market in prime condition. The seed cavity is small and compact, 
filled solidly with seed. The “Seed Breeders” runs to uniform jumbo sizes, with 
an unusually small percentage of cull melons. This uniformity and lack of culls 
is one of the most notable features of the melon. The “Seed Breeders” is slightly 
earlier and is more prolific than other Hale’s Best strains. 
We can recommend the “Seed Breeders” for either commercial or home mar¬ 
ket purposes.
