AND SELECTION 
Jicd&i Bed BBam-l 
line Thirty-Six 
The Nine Thirty-Six was introduced by us in 1934, and since that time has 
firmly established itself among the leading Hales Best varieties. This strain is now 
used in practically every section where cantaloupes are grown. 
The Hales Best is the most widely planted variety of cantaloupes. It has 
achieved this popularity because of its earliness and its fine quality. In the Seed 
Breeders and the Nine Thirty-Six, we are offering you the two newest and most 
improved strains of the Hales Best variety. Our experience since the introduction 
of these two strains proves to us that growers in every district want the very finest 
strains of seed that they can buy. In the Nine Thirty-Six are all the qualities 
that the grower must have to produce a profitable crop. 
The Nine Thirty-Six is an early melon, combining with its earliness a fine 
flavor and good shipping qualities. Its uniformity of jumbo sizes makes it a melon 
that packs with small loss from off sizes. Its prolificness insures the grower a 
yield that will give him the maximum in profits from his' land. The Nine Thirty-Six 
is a pink fleshed cantaloupe, with a thick meat and a small seed cavity. As shown 
in the accompanying illustration the cantaloupe is well netted, with no sectors, 
and the vines are vigorous and hardy. 
The Nine Thirty-Six is adaptable to every section of the country and you can 
be assured that you will make no mistake in using this strain of the Hales Best.
