This is the Improved H. B. No. 36; Better Than Ever Before. 
82 days. Is a beautiful melon; 
Imp roved H. B. No. 36 highly flavored, really good to eat 
and has proven its worth by becoming a most popular cantaloupe 
with large shippers the past several seasons. So wonderfully uni- 
form that it is an outstanding breeding accomplishment. In size 
it is large, packing mostly 36’s or using the Jumbo flat crate 12’s. 
Melon is solidly netted, little if any suture and no ribs. The rich, 
spicy salmon flesh is deep, fine grained and holds up well for long 
distance shipping. While primarily bred for the shipping trade, 
its many fine qualities make it ideal for roadside market and home 
gardens. Wherever cantaloupes are grown, we recommend this 
melon to melon growers; for north—where the seasons are short— 
for south to be first on the market with a real good cantaloupe. 
The only exception to this would be in districts where powdery 
mildew is prevalent, in which case we would recommend the 
Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45 or the D-2 Resistant.

hardly as thick meated. Netting heaviest of the H. B.’s and not in-
