The Rocky Ford Cantaloupe Seed Breeders Ass*n 
The Pink Pearl has become an important commercial melon on certain eastern 
markets because of its splendid quality and striking appearance. It is a coarsely 
netted melon of pearl gray color. The flesh is thick and a deep pink in color. The 
seed is unusual in that it is a pure white instead of the yellow that ordinarily 
characterizes cantaloupe seed. 
The White-seeded Pink Pearl is a medium late maturing melon that runs to 
jumbo thirty-six sizes. It has excellent shipping qualities, making it a good com¬ 
mercial cantaloupe. Its appearance, with coarse gray netting and the deep ribs, 
gives it a ready sale on the roadside markets. 
We have a pure, high quality strain of the White-seeded Pink Pearl and recom¬ 
mend it to you. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 15c; *4 pound, 40c; '/2 pound, 70c; 1 pound, $1.25;
