CANTELoUPE ITEMS.
Bits of News Interesting to
Melon Growers.

Old cantaloupe growers say that
never before did the vines contain
SO large a number Of promising
melons as just now. As the
acreage is remarkably large the
prospect is good for an astonish-
ing output of this delicious pro-
duct. The only danger which at
all threatens the crop ls the pest
of lice. They have not as yet
proved a serious menace but there
is yet time for them to do great
damage. Once getting start in
field they increase with great
rapidity and if not watched for
carefully and promptly destroyed
they will soon spread over the en-
tire field and work its complete
destruction. Some growers puri-
fly their fields by fire, piling straw
or old hay on the infected vines
and burning it.
Other growers prefer to spray
with a kerosene emulsion which
is made as follows: Take one
pound of ordinary laundry soap,
shave fine and dissolve i'll three
pints of hot water. After cooling
add one tea cup of coal oil, beat to
n creamy consistency then add six
gallons of water. The mixture is
then ready for your sprayer and
you have enough for one treat
ment of five acres.
This should be used as soon as
the slightest sign of the lice is
discovered. If your fields are af-
tected by lice you cannot be too
prompt and thorough in applying
q remedy.
We make the following extract
from letter from Nat Wetzel OF
the Western Poultry & Game Co.,
st. Louis: ave have spent about
$4,000 SO far in advertising and
getting out printed matter in ref

erence to the Colorado melons
for this year. Never in the his
tory of the melon industry has any
one doomed the product as we
have this, and rest assured, we
don't care how many you have,
you will find us, the Western,
there ready to take them as fast
as they come. All we want is
good goods and your money is
ready, and all we ask on the par
of your good people is to stick tol
gether and protect us and we wilt
remain with you not only this
year but years to follow"
The first few car loads Of crates
received from the eastern manu-
facturers were of very poor quail
ity. Complaint being made an
agent of the factory visited Rocky
Ford few days since and found
the complaints we'll founded. The
crates sent are far inferior to the
sample submitted to the directors
and on the quality of which the
contract was awarded.
If there is any way to prevent
the deception the Melongrowers'
association should stop the sale of
bogns Rocky Ford cantaloupes.
"Rocky Fords" are on the city
markets two or three weeks be-
fore Rocky Ford has shipped a
single melon, the fraud is self
evident. It may be an impossi-
bility to control Inscriptions
dealers, but if the public could be
made to understand that no Rocky
Fords are in the market before
Aug. 5th to 10th they would not
have poor goods foisted on them at
fancy prices.
Mr.. Wetzel has provided for a
force of four inspectors at Rocky
Ford. II, d. Garwood, Clyde

ness and the foruth man will be

TEXAS cANTALoUPEs.
Nat Wetzel's Company High
ly Complimented.
Texas Coast Promoter.l

The canteloupe season closed
here on last Saturday. The sen
son was cut short IN account of
the excessive rain and lice which
caused the vines to die before the
cantaloupes were all fully ma
tured. This has been considerable
of disappointment to our people,
but they are not discouraged and
nre anxious to give the cantaloupe
business another trial. In the
first place we were badly deceived
in our seed and could not get pure
seed although we paid rs high as
81. so per pound for port of it, and
we had a late wet spring which
nude our crop at least three weeks
late in planting and but few of our
growers ever saw any Of this vari-
ETY. of cantaloupes grown and
were inexperienced in regard to
the manner of planting, caltivat-
ing etc. Bnt nevertheless the en-
terprise has proven a success.
The first cantaloupes were fine in
appearance and flavor and brought
fancy prices, and our people are
now experienced growers and
know how to avoid many of the
mistakes made the past season,
and too the Western Poultry &
Game Co. have proven themselves
as honorable, reliable gentlemen
and capable of handling the busi-
ness to perfection and have car
ried out in every detail everything
as agreed and even more. They
have sent experienced men here,
WHO have taught our people how
to pick and pack this product so
that it will bring the best possible
prices.
Although the crop has been cut
short and some of the stock being
inferior this enterprise alone has
brought about $1,000 in cIsh to
the growers along this line of rail-
road. We have taken pains to in
terview n number of the most in
fiuential people throughout this
section and find that they are all
we'll pleased with results and are
loud in their praises Of the West
ern Poultry & Game Company,
and say that they have done all
that they agreed to do and all that
any person should ask. It is uni
versally hoped that this company
will be encouraged to return and
do business with us another sea-
son.

THE CRATE SUPPLY.
Interesting Conversation on
an Importantand Timely
Topic.

To the Editor of the Enterprise:
The writer overheard the fol-
lowing conversation a few days
ago between a director of the
Rocky Ford Aielongrowers asso-
citation and a melongrower. 1t is
interesting as showing the differ
ence Of opinion that may arise on
plain business proposition. In
the interest of public morals the
profanity is eliminated.
Melongrower. Why don't the
directors furnish crates and have
the price deducted from the pro-
ceeds of the crop?
Director.-Where would the
board get the money to pay for
them? They must be paid for in
30 days from date of delivery and
there will not be money enough
collected at that time to do it.
Recollect that by the 10th Of Aug
ust there should be $4,000 crates
here, a matter of S4,54O.
M. G.-Well, borrow the mon
ey.
D.-Will you endorse the note? ?
NJ. G.-Not by a jugfull. I
am not a lunatic.
Diet me ask you how many
crates do you expect to use?
M. G.-15O.
D.-Suppose a hail storm or
some unforeseen cause next week
would knock out the whole crop,
would you take and pay for 1900?
NJ. G.-Do you think I am
crazy?
D.-Perhaps not but you seem
to think the directors are. You
want them to take tho chance of
paying out of their own pockets
for crates they purchased for your
benefit.
M. Citizen why did you not
make positive contract for a GER
tain number of crates, to be paid
for at the end of the season?
Dive could have done SO II
we would have guaranteed to take
that certain amount.
NJ. G.-That is exactly what
you should have done.
D.-And you said just now that
you would not pay for any crates
that you did not use. Who would
have had to pay the note?
NJ. G.-Well-how-I don't
know-let me think-crates-hail
-bugs-bank. 1 see now that
there are two sides to the question
and 1 had only seen one. Yes, I
will borrow money enough to pay
for 800 crates. l will take it all
back. Will you take soda or lem
onade? EAvEsDROPPER.

Mr.. Bushenberger came out with
his shot gun and told Green to
get off of his place. which he pro-
ceeded to do, when Bushenberger
fired, only shot or two taking
effect; he was then commanded to
run, which he did not do, and a
second shot was fired taking effect
in the left shoulder, lacerating
that member in horrible man
ner, which will probably result in
Green's death. Mr.. Bushenberger
bears the name of being rather
