Mildew Resistant Cantaloupes 
RESISTANT NO. 50 
Resistant No. 50 
This was the first melon to be released that was entirely free from Mildew; 
they run rather oblong in shape and vary in size, however will run strong to twelve 
pack Jumbo flats; the vines make a very vigorous growth, flesh is a salmon color 
and medium size seed cavity; heavy net but show some stripe. 
Resistant No. 50-13 
Also entirely free of Mildew, melons run smaller and much more uniform than 
the No. 50, have a heavy net with prominent stripe; the flesh is very firm and of 
a deep salmon color and a good flavor; vines are very prolific and have an unusually 
heavy set; a good melon where your trade demand a smaller size. 
Resistant No. 8 
(Also No. 8-1 which is a selection from No. 8) 
These melons run extra large and have a very heavy strong vine growth; they 
are an attractive, well netted melon, have a thick flesh and small seed cavity; are a 
few days later in maturing than the Hale’s Best variety but have wonderful ship¬ 
ping and carrying qualities; due to the large sizes are used in many districts even 
though not troubled with Mildew, where they require a melon for roadside markets 
and loose hauling to markets by truck.
