ROCKY FORD CANTALOUPE SEED 

Four-Fifty 
The new “Four-Fifty” is an improved strain of the widely used No. 45 and has 
been very successful wherever used. 
In developing the 4-50 particular emphasis was placed upon its commercial 
characteristics. It is a melon that will hold up in prime edible condition for 
several days after being picked on a full slip. Any ripe melons overlooked in 
the fields are still in good condition on the following days. This is in contrast 
to the softening of most varieties after they slip from the vine. 
The Four-Fifty is an oval melon with a dark skin, covered by a heavy net. 
The flesh is salmon colored, sweet and smooth. The cavity is small and compact. 
The vines are vigorous in growth, dark green in color, and produce a heavy set 
of melons. The 4-50 will average a jumbo 36 in size, measuring about 6'/2 by 6 
inches and weighing about 4 pounds. This variety matures in about 98 days. 
We introduced the Four-Fifty two years ago and in each season since its 
introduction we have sold out our entire supply of this seed. There is a general 
shortage of cantaloupe seed this season and the 4-50 is no exception. We suggest 
that if you intend to use the Four-Fifty that you get your order to us as soon 
as possible.
