PERFECTION BRAND SEEDS —Since 1906 
7 
PERFECTED PERFECTO—Undoubtedly the 
“last word” in the Rockyford type of shipping 
cantaloupe. It has commanded the highest price 
in every market. Its appealing, deep orange 
flesh is its distinctive characteristic; the flesh 
is most solid, with the smallest seed cavity of 
any type. The fruits are remarkably uniform 
in size and shape, nearly x'ound, densely cov¬ 
ered with hard gray netting. The rich, deep 
orange flesh is fine grained, ripening close to 
the rind, juicy, melting, wonderfully sweet 
and of spicy flavor. It is an outstanding early 
market variety, highly recommended for its 
hardiness, prolificness, deep rich orange-tinted 
flesh, unexcelled eating and shipping qualities. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; V4 lb., 40c; lb., $1.30, post¬ 
paid. 
HEARTS OF GOLD—This melon runs very 
uniform in size and is a splendid shipping va¬ 
riety. The melons are oval to oblong in shape 
and are a little larger tran the Rockyford. 
While it is a ribbed melon the ribs are not 
prominent and the melons are very heavily 
netted. The flesh is rich orange color, fine 
grain and of excellent flavor. Seed cavity is 
small. It doesn’t turn yellow when ripe, but 
retains its natural color and remains solid and 
firm for days after it is picked from the vine. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; V4 lb., 40c; lb., $1.30, post¬ 
paid. 
HONEY DEW MELON—The fruits are of 
medium size, round or slightly oval, 5 to 6 
inches in diameter and weigh about 6 pounds 
and of very sweet, sugary flavor. Rind thin 
each. Flesh light emerald green, fine grained 
but very firm and the fruits stand shipping 
remarkably well. If picked shortly befoi-e ma¬ 
ture the fruits will keep for several weeks. 
Matures about two weeks later than Rocky¬ 
ford. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; V4 lb., 50c; lb., $1.25.

NEW IDEAL CANTALOUPE—This new strain was developed several, years ago from a 
perfect cantaloupe found in a seed field of Hale’s Best. By careful selection the grower has de¬ 
veloped a commercial cantaloupe which we believe outclasses any early variety introduced to 
date. It is very prolific, oval in shape, practically all solid net. Flesh is deep salmon color, firm 
fine grained. Small seed cavity and excellent flavor. Matures its first melons in 80 to 90 days. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; V4 lb., 40c; lb., $1.35, postpaid.
