Nine Thirty-Six 
A Popular Hale's Best Strain 

The Nine Thirty-Six is one of the popular Hale's Best strains of cantaloupes. Like 
all Hale's Bests, it is an early melon maturing in 85 days. The Nine Thirty-Six has a 
fine flavor and good shipping qualities. The melons are well netted with no sectors 
and run to even jumbo sizes, weighing 3 to 4 pounds. The flesh is thick and salmon 
colored, and the seed cavity is small and tight. The Nine Thirty-Six has an excellent 
flavor and a high sugar content. The vines are vigorous and set and hold a heavy 
crop of cantaloupes. 
The Nine Thirty-Six is adaptable to every cantaloupe section and, since we intro- 
duced the strain in 1934, it has become one of the leading commercial strains. Its 
high quality and its earliness account for this popularity. 
Having developed and introduced the Nine-Thirty-Six, we are in a position to offer 
you an exceptionally fine stock of seed of this strain.
