HALE’S BEST NO. 36

varieties of this strain 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 among the earliest to mature for the market. Will 
mature in 85 to 90 days.
