ground. If the melon remained on the
vine until properly matured, this portion
will be found to have changed from a
white to pale yellow, and upon close
| examination, numerous small pimples, |
somewhat like the measles as it were,
will be noticed on said surface, particu- !

Piles may be regarded as sure indication
that the melon remained on the vine
until mature, as they never appear on
those that have been permaturely pulled.
Sometimes the desirable pale yellow is
produced permaturely by turning this
