WOODSIDE SEED GROWERS COMPANY , ROCKY FORD, COLO. 
Mildew Resistant Cantaloupes 
(Recommended for Districts Affected by Powdery Mildew) 
The vines of several different introductions are entirely free of any Mildew and 
Highly Disease Resistant; in some fields for a comparison and test purposes, other 
Rocky Ford varieties were planted by the side of the Resistant; in these fields the 
non-resistant strains were immediately killed by Mildew while the Resistant inter¬ 
twined with them showing no Mildew infection whatever. 
Mildew Resistant No. 45 
SHOWING SAMPLE OF OUR NO. 45 THE PAST SEASON 
The Mildew Resistant Cantaloupe is no longer an experiment; the production 
and shipping qualities due to the fact the No. 45 must be picked on a FULL SLIP 
and will then carry to the far distant markets, arriving in perfect condition, has 
won it Fame for being the most popular of the Mildew Resistant Strains; in other 
words, as a shipping melon it is unexcelled. 
It has practically as heavy a net as the Improved Hale’s Best varieties, is similar 
in shape and very uniform; the melons run strong to Jumbo in size and is really the 
first of the Resistant strains to have as many of the improved qualities. 
The No. 45 has a thick Salmon colored flesh, is well flavored, however the flesh 
is not as fine grained, neither is the flavor equal to that of the Improved Hales 
Best Strains; the melon has a reasonably small seed cavity and is perhaps one 
week later in maturing than the Hale’s Best. 
If you want a melon with proven shipping and carrying qualities, a melon 
that MUST be VINE RIPENED, we advise giving the Mildew Resistant No. 45 a 
trial the coming season.
