A Georgia melon expert gives the fol-
lowing test to determine whether melon
is ripe: Draw the thumb nail over the
melon, scraping off the the thin green
skin. II the edges Of the skin on each
side of the scar are left ragged or granu-
lated, the melon Is ripe. But if the edges
of the scar are smooth and even. and the
thumb nail has dug into the rind in places
and the skin does not come off clean, then
the melon is green. 1t is easy to learn the
test by trying it on couple OF melons,
one ripe and the other green, their condi-
ton being ascertained by cutting them
open.
