Photograph taken on one of our Seed Farms. This shows the 
Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45. Uniform in size, thick fleshed. 
Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45 88 days. A 
great achieve- 
ment in scientific cantaloupe breeding. Dr. Jagger and his asso- 
ciates working in connection with the U.S.D.A. made 8,000 crosses 
endeavoring to find a melon that would resist Powdery Mildew 
and at the same time be good eating and a good shipper. The 
No. 45 was selected from all of these as being the best fitted for 
reproduction. It should be vine ripened, picked full slip at which 
stage it carries an attractive yellow ripe color underneath the 
closely laced netting. Precooled, it will ship from California to 
the Eastern markets and arrive in the consumer’s hands in first 
class condition. Our selection has been toward a slightly smaller 
type, rather round, instead of too oblong (note illustration). Flesh 
is very thick, melons uniform in appearance, and are easily crated. 
Cantaloupe shippers who have seen our fields advise that we were 
fortunate in having decided to select to the smaller type, because 
this melon is inclined to grow rather large in some districts. We 
recommend use of the D-2 Resistant in the Imperial Valley.
