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, % days. The. 
variety most 
used in the Rocky Ford district as it may be vine ripened, picked 
full slip and stand shipment to distant points. Quality is among 
the best of the mildew resistant varieties. Flesh salmon, firm, 
fine textured and sweet. Our strain produces more uniform melons 
than what is generally offered as this variety. No. 45 is not as 
resistant to some mildews as some of the more recent introductions 
and we suggest use of Mildew Resistant No. 5 in the Imperial 
Valley and Phoenix section.
