A POPULAR HALE’S BEST STRAIN 
The Nine Thirty-Six is one of the pop- 
ular Hale’s Best strains of cantaloupes. 
Like all Hale’s Bests, it is an early melon 
maturing in 85 days The Nine Thirty-Six 
has a fine flavor and good shipping 
qualities. The melons are well netted 
with no sectors and run to even jumbo 
sizes, weighing 3 to 4 pounds. The flesh 
is thick and salmon colored, and the 
seed cavity is small and tight. The Nine 
Thirty-Six has an excellent flavor and 
a high sugar content. The vines are vig- 
orous and set and hold a heavy crop of 
cantaloupes. 
The Nine Thirty-Six is adaptable to 
every cantaloupe section and, since we 
introduced the strain in 1934, it has be- 
come one of the leading commercial 
strains. Its high quality and its earliness 
account for this popularity. 
Having developed and introduced the 
Nine Thirty Six, we are in a position to
