Hand cutting special Stack Seed of Cantaloupe No. 45. Particular attention is paid 
to depth, texture and color of Hd as tes as size, netting and uniformity 
of the melons. 
Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45 8% days. The 
variety most 
used in the Rocky Ford district as it may be vine ripened, picked 
full slip and stand shipment to distant points. Quality is among 
the best of the very long distance shippers. Flesh salmon, firm, 
fine textured and sweet. Our strain produces more uniform melons 
than what is generally offered as this variety. The melons from 
which we produced our stock seed were taste tested. That is, the 
individual melons were tasted for flavor and sweetness and all 
discarded except the very best. We were definitely able to improve 
the quality of our 45 by this method. :
