Today the welfare of our country is largely 
dependent upon the progress and prosperity 
of the farmer. The success of the farmer is, 
in turn, dependent upon the size and quality 
of the crops he produces. The size and quality 
of the crops produced depend, in a large 
measure, upon the seed that is planted. There- 
fore it is of great importance that the seed 
be of very high standard. 
We are cooperating with leading distribu- 
tors, with experimental stations and agricul- 
tural colleges to develop better varieties of 
cantaloupes. Through careful selection im- 
proved strains are produced. Through im- 
proved methods of growing and harvesting 
and through extreme care in handling, we pro- 
duce seed that can be used with confidence. 
On the following pages we list and describe 
the seed of the different varieties that we have available. All this seed has been pro- 
duced by the methods and with the care described on the preceding pages. If you 
want quality cantaloupes, you will make no mistake in using the seed that we have 

grown for you.
