Early Hale’s Best Cantaloupe 
FIRST ON THE MARKET 
Hale’s Best is the best known cantaloupe in the United States and our seed is 
all grown from our personally selected stock seed. 
The melons run mostly jumbo sizes; a large percentage showing slight rib and 
faint stripe, yet retaining the extreme earliness. The flesh is deep saimon colored, 
firm and of excellent quality. It is a splendid shipper, staying firm for days after 
being picked.

10 to 25 lbs. @ $1.00 per lb.; over 25 lbs. @ 90c per lb. Prepaid. 
Hale’s Best Cantaloupe No. 36 
HALE’S BEST NO. 36 
Even though Number 36 was introduced to the growers in 1932 it is still one of 
the largest selling varieties of the Hale’s Best strains and is known in every district 
where cantaloupes are produced. 
It can be grown for almost any purpose, home gardens, roadside stands, hauling 
by truck or packing for distant markets. 
The melons run large and very uniform in size, have slightly oval shape, the 
flesh is a salmon color of an excellent flavor; seed cavity being much smaller than 
the original Hale’s Best. 
The Number 36 is an extra heavy yielder due to the vines being strong and hardy 
and is one of the earliest to mature for the market. 
PRICE: Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; M lb. 35c; V 2 lb. 65c; 1 lb. $1.25; 5 to 10 lbs. @ $1.10 per lb. 
10 to 25 lbs. @ $1.00 per lb.; over 25 lbs. @ 90e per lb. Prepaid.
