Grown and Harvested By Ourselves 

THE No. 6 is another new strain of the powdery mildew-resistant cantaloupes de- 
veloped by Dr. Whitaker. 
The No. 6 is 100% resistant to the mildew. It can be picked on a full slip and 
stand shipment to distant markets. The fruit runs to jumbo 36’s in size and are well 
netted. The flesh is firm, salmon-colored and of good flavor, although not averaging 
as high in sugar content as does the No. 5. The No. 6 is a few days earlier in matur- 
ing than the No. 5. 
Both the No. 5 and No. 6 will be used this season in those districts where a 
mildew-resistant melon is needed. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 25c; Y4 pound, 80c; 12 pound, $1.50; 1 pound, $2.50; 
5 pounds, $11.00. 
MILDEW RESISTANT NO. 8 
A LARGE, HARDY CANTALOUPE 
THE MILDEW-RESISTANT No. 8 1s a large 
melon that is particularly hardy and pro- 
lific. It is a salmon-fleshed melon, well 
netted, thick-fleshed, with a small seed 
cavity. It has a fine external appearance, 
and will average larger than the Hale’s 
Best in size, but will not run to a single 
uniform type. The No. 8 matures in about 
95 days. The quality of this melon is very 
good and it will stand considerable han- 
dling without breaking down. 
The No. 8 is not 100% resistant to 
mildew, but this will not affect its popu- 
larity in districts where mildew is not a 
factor. For a hardy melon, producing a 
heavy crop of large melons, we recom- 
mend the No. 8. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 20c; 1% pound, 65c; 2 pound, $1.20; 1 pound, $2.00; 
P he 5 pounds, $8.80. 

Not ALL our seed is sent in bulk, but a 
large portion is packed in one-pound sealed 
cloth bags. This method of packaging in- 
sures the grower that when the seed reaches 
him, there has been no danger of mixture 
since it left our warehouse. The one-pound 
bag makes an ideal package for distribution 
and for checking the amount of seed planted 
per acre. For the smaller grower the seed 
is also packaged in any desired quantity be- 
ginning with one ounce.
