Photograph taken on one of our Seed Farms. This shows the Powdery Mildew Resistant 
No. 45. Uniform in size, thick fleshed 
Powdery Mildew Resistant No. 45 387 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, but must be vine ripened. 
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. Shippers have 
told us we have absolutely the best 45 available. While some varie- 
ties are more tolerant to powdery mildew, these usually are not of 
as good quality.
