THE SEED BREEDERS is our most popular strain of the Hale’s Best variety because of 
its earliness and uniformity. | 
The Seed Breeders is a melon with a thick, firm, salmon colored flesh of very 
fine flavor. The seed cavity is small and compact. The melons are slightly oval, firm 
and well-netted, making splendid shippers. The new H. B. strain runs to even jumbo 
sizes. The vigorous vine of the Seed Breeders produces a slightly earlier melon and is 
more prolific than other Hale’s Best strains. Maturing in 80 to 85 days, it is earlier 
than other strains. Its fruit is more uniform in size and shape. : 
The Hale’s Best is the most popular cantaloupe in use in the country today. The 
Seed Breeders is the newest and best of the improved Hale’s Best strains. Wherever 
early cantaloupes are wanted, the Seed Breeders has proven to be the finest in flavor 
and quality. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 25¢; 1% pound, 75¢; 2 pound, $1.35; 1 pound, $2.25; 
5 pounds, $9.90. 
WHEN THE cantaloupe seed crop 
is ready for harvest, we have 
crews of men who carefully se- 
lect the best melons for seed. 
These melons are placed in piles 
as shown in the photograph, and 
are again sorted to be certain that 
no unworthy melon is cut for 
seed. While this method of hand 
selection is laborious and rela- 
tively slow, it is the only method 
whereby we can be sure that the 
seed we sell is the finest that it nie 
is possible to grow. SEED BREEDERS
