JUMBO HALE’S BEST 
THE LARGE POPULAR STRAIN 
The Jumbo Hale’s Best is a large 
fruited strain of this popular variety that 
is exceptionally well adapted to local 
markets. Because of its large sizes it is 
not a melon for the best commercial pur- 
poses. 
The Jumbo strain of the Hale’s Best 
has the thick salmon flesh, the sweetness 
and the excellent quality of the other 
strains. The fruit will weigh about 5 
pounds and is heavily netted with a dis- 
tinct suture. The cavity is rather large, 
but the flesh does not break down read- 
ily. The vines of the Jumbo Hale’s Best 
are vigorous in growth and well able to 
mature the large melons they produce. 
The Jumbo will mature in about 85 to 
90 days. 
Because of its large sizes and its fine 
quality, the Jumbo Hale’s Best is in- 
creasingly in demand from the market 
gardeners. The home gardener, too, will 
be well pleased with this cantaloupe. 
We can recommend it to ‘you.
