BENDER SPECIAL 
BENDER SPECIAL 
Medium sized, 5 to 7 pounds. Developed to meet the demands of growers 
wanting a very uniform Bender of quality. 
DELICIOUS 
Ripens two weeks earlier than Bender. Fruits quite large, averaging about 5 
pounds. Skin creamy yellow, flesh fairly solid, deep orange, of excellent flavor. 
Especially recommended for home garden and roadside trade as this melon 
will not ship as well as Bender. 
HALE’S BEST 
A new early melon, ripening in 75 to 80 days. The fruits are oblong, 8 to 9 
inches in length, shallow ribbed, but densely covered with medium heavy 
netting. Flesh very thick and fine grained, deep salmon-pink in color and of 
delicious flavor. Our strain will be found superior to that offered by other 
houses. 
Hearts c* Gold or Improved Hoodoo 
This popular medium sized melon follows the earlier varieties and ripens in 
about 100 days. Fruits 5 to6 inches in diameter; flesh orange salmon in color 
exceptionally thick and fine flavored. 
HONEY ROCK 
This is a handsome variety. The flesh is extremely thick, salmon colored. 
The shape is round, with coarse netting, slate colored background. It is early, 
prolific and if not already acquainted with this new variety, it is well worth a 
trial for comparison with varieties you are now growing.
