Melogold. 
THE MELOGOLD NAME, derived by contracting the words of ‘melon of gold,” aptly describe 
this cantaloupe, for it is golden in appearance and in value to the grower. 
The Melogold is a white-skinned, pink-fleshed variety that has a fine flavor and excel- 
lent shipping qualities. Picked vine-ripened, these melons will reach the markets in good 
condition. In sizes it will tun to even jumbo thirty-sixes. The fruit is slightly and evenly 
netted and takes on a golden tint after ripening. The flesh is thick and unusually smooth 
in texture. The seed cavity is small and compact. 
The Melogold is distinguished from the Globo de Oro in that it has a thinner and 
smoother rind. Both of these melons are of high quality, and we can recommend each of 
them equally. Your choice will depend upon your personal preference either for a rather 
smooth-skinned melon or for a netted white-skinned cantaloupe.

Globo de Oro 
IN THE GLOBO DE ORO we are offering you the finest of the white-skinned, orange-fleshed 
cantaloupes. Introduced in 1934, the Globo de Oro has proven itself to be a melon of 
superb quality for home, market or commercial purposes. 
The Globo is a nearly round melon, covered with a slight netting, and is golden in 
appearance when fully ripe. The cavity is very small, and the thick flesh is orange colored 
and edible to the rind. The vines are hardy, vigorous and yield heavily over a long period. 
In sizes the Globo runs to the jumbo thirty-six, with a few of the twenty-seven pack. It is a 
medium late melon, midway between the Hale’s Best and the Honey Dew. | 
‘With proper care in the maintaining of high standards in harvesting, the unusual 
quality of the Globo de Oro will insure for it a premium price and repeated sales.
