Personal supervision is one of the keys to success attained by our 
cantaloupe seed. The crew shown in this photograph is hand-cutting 
cantaloupes for seed, and this crew is supervised at all times in their 
work by Phil Ryan, one of the members of our firm. 

The hand-cutting of cantaloupes for seed is 
one of the best ways to secure purity and qual- 
ity. When cantaloupes are cut by hand only 
the best ones are saved for seed, the rest can 
be discarded. 




Our cantaloupe seed is dried and cured in the sun. The washing, drying, and milling of our 
seed is personnally supervised by James B. Ryan, who is one of the oldest and most experi- 
enced cantaloupe seed breeders in the country.
