This is the Improved H. B. No. 36; Better Than Ever Before 
J SB. : 82 days. Is a beautiful melon; 
me roved H. B. No. 36 highly flavored, really good to 
eat and has proven its worth by becoming a most popular can- 
taloupe with large shippers the past several seasons. So wonder- 
fully uniform that it is an outstanding breeding accomplishment. 
In size it is large, packing mostly 36’s or using the Jumbo flat 
erate 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 rec- 
ommend the Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45 or the D-2 Resistant.

H. B. 936 form an size as it holds up uniformly late in the 
season in this respect; color and texture of the flesh the same, but 
hardly as thick meated. Netting heaviest of the H. B.’s and not 
inclined to run to slick melons in the later pickings.
