CONGO—90 days. A new Anthracnose Resistant variety developed at the Regional 
Vegetable Breeding Laboratory U.S.D.A., Charleston, S. C., formerly known as 
46-40 and released last year. This is a large, semi-long type melon, resembling 
the Garrison variety generally in size and shape. It is a striped melon but the 
stripes are much darker than Garrison and is easily distinguished from that var- 
iety. Sizes up to 60 pounds are not uncommon. It is mostly free of the gourd-necks 
found in Garrison. Sugar content is high, about 12 percent. A very tough rind and 
firm flesh makes it a fine shipper. Quality excellent. Seeds are slightly smaller 
than Garrison, of very light tan with side pattern of darker tan. You will not 
go wrong in planting come of this fine melon. Supply of seeds is limited this 
season.
