Burrell's Jumbo ® days. The original stock of Hale’s Best 
produced some very large‘fine melons that 
were exceptionally well adapted‘to roadside market selling and for 
bulk hauling in trucks. They were so extremely large, however, 
that they were hardly as well suited to packing in crates as some 
of the smaller types. By critical selection we produced a uniform 
type of this having a distinct stripe or suture running from stem 
to blossom end. It is a big melon; the average weight from our 
seed fields being about 4% pounds each, which would mean that 
the melons pack nine or even less to the Jumbo flat crate. Well 
netted between the distinct suture, practically no ribs. Flesh is 
thick, deep salmon, flavor sweet and of fine eating quality. Because 
of its firm flesh it holds up and keeps longer than H, B,

FROM LAKE CITY, FLA.—Last year our watermelons coming 
from your seed brought the top prices on the New York market a 
majority of the selling days that they were there. I also might 
add that the three largest cars that left Florida under U S 1 Gov- 
ernment Inspection were from your seed. 
FROM CANADIAN, OKLA.—This is my 29th year to order seed 
from you. The best in the world.
