HIGHEST QUALITY SEED ONLY 
$ 
SELECTION AND GROWING 
Our planting stocks are kept up to the highest standard by systematic selection. 
Our seed-growing is carried on in the most up-to-date manner. The seed we offer 
is the best selection from fields grown exclusively for seed purposes; was saved 
from stock true to type, from well-netted, fully matured, standard-sized melons of 
the best seed qualities. Our seed is all cut by hand, well-cured, is thoroughly cleaned, 
all light seed fanned out, and is of the highest germination. 
CO-OPERATION 
We want to supply growers who want and appreciate good seed. If after order¬ 
ing from us you have any cause for complaint, we want you to write us fully at 
once, as just criticism is an aid to improvement; satisfied customers our pride. 
WHY NOT BUY ROCKY FORD CANTALOUPE SEED 
AT ROCKY FORD? 
The Rocky Ford district produces and supplies more than 90 per cent of the 
cantaloupe seed used in the entire country. Practically all of the cantaloupe seed 
handled by the seed trade is secured either directly or indirectly from this district. 
Therefore would it not be good business policy to buy your Cantaloupe Seed direct 
from Rocky Ford, and direct from the producers before it passes through so many 
hands? Please think this matter over carefully and give us a trial order. 
WHEN TO ORDER 
We strongly advise our customers to send in their orders immediately upon 
receipt of this Catalog, as they will then have the seeds on hand when they need 
them, and avoid the unnecessary delay often caused by the rush of the busy season. 
It is advisable to order early while our stock is complete—thus avoiding any disap¬ 
pointment.
