All Our Cantaloupe Seed Is Hand-Cut 

THE NAME “MELOGOLD,” derived by contracting the words of ‘‘melon of gold,” aptly 
describes this cantaloupe. 
The Melogold is a white-skinned, pink-fleshed variety that has fine flavor and 
excellent shipping qualities. Picked vine-ripened, these melons will reach markets in 
good condition. In sizes it will run to even jumbo 36’s. The fruit is slightly and 
evenly netted and takes on a golden tint after ripening. The flesh is thick and unusu- 
ally smooth in texture. The seed cavity is small and compact. About 95 days are 
required for maturing the Melogold. | 
The Melogold is especially attractive in appearance, which, coupled with fine 
quality, has enabled it to bring premium prices on the market.

MILDEW RESISTANT NO. 1 
AN OLD ESTABLISHED STRAIN 
THIS MILDEW-RESISTANT No. 1 is an old established variety and is not to be confused 
with the new Texas Resistant No. 1. This No. 1 is a salmon-fleshed, well-netted, 
oblong cantaloupe. The flesh is thick and sweet, and the vacity small and compact. 
The vines are vigorous and produce a large crop. 
The Mildew-Resistant No. 1 is distinguished from the No. 45 by two principal 
characteristics: it is slightly earlier and it produces larger melons. The No. 1 is a 
large cantaloupe, running in sizes from jumbo 36’s to 27’s. It is about a week later 
than the Hale’s Best in maturing. 
We have a small but consistent demand for the No. 1 seed from growers who 
want a large, hardy, commercial cantaloupe. |
