sand mile journey: special melon trains

sand mile journey: special melon trains
were put on all the roads, and in water
melon time special schedules were made
out, in order that these trains might be
hurried through with the least possible
delay and the fruit brought to market
in good condition. OF course, all this
was not done from a philanthropic
motive. Railroad companies do not
usually undertake enterprises solely
from desire to elevate the condition
of mankind. The hope and expectation
of the railroad men was TO build up
business that would pay them for their
trouble. They have succeeded in build
ing up the business; how well it pays
them is matter concerning which
they have not taken the public into
their confidence.
While work on a Georgia melon farm
is by no means pressing at most seasons
of the year, when the melons come to
a condition fit for shipping there Is a
good deal more haste manifested than
is observable at any other season. Cot
ton in the boil does not spoil by little
waiting; sugar cane can be delayed a
day or two at least: peanuts and sweet
potatoes can be dug next week as well
as to-day, but the watermelon is inn
perative; it will not wait day, and to
reach market in proper condition must
be gathered, loaded and forwarded at
once. A watermelon station on down
South railroad, in melon time, presents
busy scene Teams are continually
arriving and departing, the wagons
laden almost to breaking with the dark
green fruit; gangs of laborers, their
sable skins shining with perspiration,
are loading the melons into the cars
that stand in readiness at the station.
The professional joke maker finds an
ample field for the exercise Of his
talent in the proclivity Of the colored
man OF the South for watermelon steal
ing, but where watermelons are so
abundant and so cheap. the theft Of q
melon from field is regarded as
scarcely more criminal than the alb
straction of drink Of water from a
neighbours spring. Every year thou
sands upon thousands Of samples little
too ripe for shipping are left to rot in

Product of the South.

The watermelon as factor in civili-
cation is not usually considered of prime
Importance, but that some credit is due
this product of the sunny skies and
sandy soils of the tropical climes, there
Is no question. Commonly supposed as
designed only to gladden. the heart and
satisfy as we'll as disorder the digestive
apparatus of the African fellow-citizen
and the Caucasian small boy, it never
theless has a wider range of usefulness
In assisting to solve the economic
problem in the Southern States. In
this respect it of course must share the
glory with the humble and ofttimes de-
spised goober or peanut, which from an
occasional and chance product has
risen to position of grave Importance.
But, from commercial standpoint, the
watermelon outranks both the goober OF
Tennessee and the gator skin of Florida
and holds its own even when placed in
comparison with so important an
article of commerce as the turpentine
of North Carolina or the fisheries
along the coast.
This pre-eminence has not been at
tanned by accident, but by the most in
telligent and assiduous effort on the
part of the railroad companies, which
have practically created the water
melon business Before the days of
railroads there were, of course, water
melons. There perhaps never has been

difficulties in the way seemed at first
almost insuperabe. The Georgians
and Floridans and other Southerners
who raised the melon were unfamiliar
with the best methods of cultivating it,
and had to be taught; they did not
know how to prepare the melons for
market, and needed instruction in this
particular also When all this had been
gained it was found that their melons
were too thin-skinned to bear trans
portation, and hundreds of car loads
were lost in making this discovery. A
melon was then found which would bear

plain that II ways and means could be
devised to bring the melon to the con-
sumner at the time the consumer wanted
1t, and while the melon was still fresh,
an enormous business could be built up.
After a long course of experiments,
conducted at no little loss and expense,
the problem was finally solved, and the
watermelon trade of to-day is some
thing colossal in its proportions. The

A PLEA FOR TROUT.
1t Is Necessary for Us to Read the Fish
Commission the Riot Act About
Black Bass

BIack Bass.
1t is proposed some time soon to send
out another carload of bass from eastern
waters by the United States fish COM
mission to stock the lakes and streams
of Oregon and Washington. Our noun
tain trout has been the divinity of an
glers in Oregon streams for time i'm
memorial, and there is a wholesome OBJ
lection raised to the proposal of the
United States fish commission IN its ef
forts of supplanting them with bass
from anywhere. Judges, presidents,
senators and plebeians, who have gone
many miles to toss the gamy speckled.
trout a fly will ask the press of thiS
coast to enter protest against this prof
posed desecration, which is worse ona
than the infliction visited upon our
preserves" by the introduction of carp
and bull-pouts. Our mountain trout is
the acknowledged king of all fresh water
fishes. No other will take the fly like
him or compare in gaminess; nor is
there any so toothsome. The black
bass is very good fish compared with
the bull-pout and sunfsh, but he is not
in the same category with the trout. As
food the black bass brings eighteen
cents pound in the New York market
today, where the trout sells for dollar
a pound. There is a corresponding
difference in their game qualities.
The bass is not the superior of our
trout, in size even. Any one
who has ever caught either the
large bass, or the small-mouthed bass,
in eastern waters, where the fishing is
considered good, will tell you, if they
ever had the experience, that they
never had so much srort in whole
day, as they found in Trout lake, or any
one of the hundred trout streams in the
vicinity of The Dalles in half an hour.
This is not the climate, either, for bass,
under the most favorable circumstances
and he would never flourish here. He
i is no comparison to the trout in any
sense, and our Rod and Gun clubs
should teach the fish com mission that
their labors in this behalf would never
be appreciated Our fieh is a true
trout, though differing slightly from TIE
eastern brook trout, and being purely
Pacific coast product, it should be oul
pride and ambition to keep him at his
best. Then we may treat our eastern
visitors to sport such as they can only
read about at home. Nothing less thar
the speckled beauties we have is gooC
J enough for the waters of our magnifcen
regions. Let US put stop to the fish
