Cantaloupe 
PERFECTED PERFECTO — 90 
days. Since we introduced this high 
quality melon, back in 1933, we 
have continued to keep it the finest 
eating melon on the market. It 
should be spaced further apart than 
most cantaloupes on account of its 
extra strong, vigorous growth. It is 
highly resistant to disease and rust. 
The Perfected Perfecto is nearly 
round in shape, measuring 6 by 5% 
inches, and packs 12 to 15 to the 
jumbo flat crate. The netting is 
very fine and closely laced, entire- 
ly covering the melon. Flesh is 
very thick, rich orange-salmon col- 
or and edible to the rind. The seed 
cavity is very small and the seeds 
are tightly packed.

PURDUE NO. 44—88 days. A Hale’s Best selection introduced by Purdue University 
to obtain a top quality shipping cantaloupe with resistance to alternaria leaf spot. 
Alternaria Leaf Spot is a cantaloupe disease that causes the plants to fire at the 
center of the hill, losing most of the leaves by the time the fruits are matured. 
Not resistant to bacterial wilt however. The melons are very uniform in size, no 
pronounced ribs, heavy uniform netting. Size of the melons same as Hale’s Best 
No. 936. We consider this melon one of the best of the Hale’s Best type yet intro- 
duced. Better try some this year.
