"WATERMELoNs A SUCCESS. I"

The statement that "watermelons are a
success, even in the Pan Handle" leads US
to the thought that even in western Kansas
watermelons are a success. Watermelons re-
quire the best ground for their successful
production. In the older Slater, low, msrshy
ground is generally selected for the cultiva-
iion Of this succulent fruit. Here in Kansas
the large, delicious melons are grown any
where. Upon the highlands can be found
melons as large as those grown on low land.
Soil that produces watermelons will success
fully grow any variety of vegetable plant;
and the cultivation OF vegetables has been
successfully tested on the Kansas plains.
Wagon loads Of melons are seen every day
on the streets Of Dodge City; and come of
these melons are Of good size; and we shall
attempt no exaggeration in describing the
plumb and delicious melon, which is being
regarded with better favor everywhere. II
is claimed that the watermelon is healthful
fruit; and its success in this region will sup
ply the absence OF other fruit. Delicious
preserves can be made of the watermelon;
such as the prudent housewife with the aid
Of "receipt book, will promptly make, as
melons are cheap and plentifuI.
But We know some derision attaches TO the
prolific and spontaneous growth Of any par
ticular variety OF truck. New Jersey has
its odium for the State successfully raises
