Cantaloupe .. . Pertected Perfecto 
We originated this wonderful cantaloupe and, under the name of Improved 
Perfecto, received the “Award of Merit” All America Selections in 1933. ‘Since 
that time we have continued our work of selection and breeding until today we have 
truly a Perfected Perfecto cantaloupe; the finest quality cantaloupe on the market. 
Grown extensively in many of the leading cantaloupe producing sections, it is 
often shipped under the name of “Orange Flesh” and tops the market. Although 
somewhat later maturing than some other varieties this longer growing season de- 
velops the sugar and sweetness, making cantaloupe eating a delightful pleasure. 
The Perfected Perfecto is especially recommended for planting where other 
melons are inclined to rust. The vines make an extra strong, vigorous growth and 
are highly disease resistant. On account of its vigorous growth it should be spaced 
farther apart than most other cantaloupes. | 

The Perfected Perfecto matures in about 90 days, is nearly round in shape and 
runs very uniform in sizes. Measuring 6 by 5% inches it packs 12 to 15 to the jumbo 
flat crate, The netting is well developed with a very fine, closely laced netting which 
covers the melon “Solid Net.” 
The flesh of the Perfected Perfecto is a rich orange-salmon color with the 
thickest meat of any cantaloupe and edible to the rind. The small seed cavity can 
usually be covered with a fifty-cent piece and the seed is very closely packed. The 
eating quality of the Perfected Perfecto is unexcelled, very sweet and spicy. One of 
the very best of shippers it brings repeat orders whenever it is once eaten. 
I am sure that, once you try our Perfected Perfecto, you will say, as did a 
seedsman friend of ours, “Why grow any other cantaloupe to eat.”
