ROCKY FORD CANTALOUPE SEED 

Scx- 
«K 
INTRODUCED TWO YEARS AGO, the Six-Three has proven to be a valuable addition to the mid- 
season commercial melons. Past experience has shown the desirability of certain cantaloupe 
districts specializing in particular types of melons. Because this cantaloupe has certain distinc- 
tive characteristics, some districts now seem well on the way toward the adoption of this new 
Six-Three as its specialty, just as other sections specialize in the early Hale’s Best or in the 
distinctive White-Seeded Pink Pearl. 
The Six-Three is notable for the unusual vigor of its vine, for the close netting on the 
melon, and for the exceptional solidity and firmness of the flesh. 
This is a dark-skinned, round melon running to standard thirty-six sizes. It belongs to 
the mid-season class of melons since it matures about a week later than the Hale’s Best. The 
Six-Three melons are firm and closely netted and hold up well under shipping conditions. 
There is no tendency of the flesh to break down when handled after being picked on a full 
slip. The vines are strong and vigorous, producing a large crop of quality melons. When 
placed on the market the firm texture and the fine flavor of the orange-fleshed Six-Three makes 
for ready acceptance by the buyers.

The production of good cantaloupes is based upon the use of good seed. 
The Six-Three is no exception. 
Superfecte 
THE SUPERFECTO is one of the best of the late-crop shipping melons, reaching maturity later 
in the season than the Hale’s Best. 
The Superfecto is a round, well-netted cantaloupe, with no ridges, giving it an attractive 
market appearance. Its orange flesh is deep and fine grained, with a good flavor. The seed 
cavity is smaller than in most cantaloupes and is compactly filled. The Superfecto runs to the 
twelve jumbo flat pack in size, and the melons are very uniform. 
For the grower who wishes to extend his shipping season, we can recommend the Super- 
fecto as one that will meet all his needs. The market gardener will also find the Superfecto 
a fine melon for his purpose. 
We are quoting a very attractive price on this variety.
